When I first walked into the airy studio on Long Island for a candle making workshop Long Island, I expected to learn the basics of wax and wicks. What I didn’t anticipate was a full‑immersive celebration of the divine feminine that would forever change the way I approach my self‑care routine. The moment the instructor lit the first Persephone correspondence candles, the room filled with a soft amber glow that felt less like a class and more like a gathering of modern goddesses.

One of the most striking things about the experience is how the workshop intertwines practical craft with mythic storytelling. Participants are invited to choose a deity—Artemis for protection, Demeter for abundance, or even Persephone for transformation—and then blend scents and colors that embody that goddess’s energy. The result is a bespoke candle that not only looks stunning on a mantle but also carries a personal intention. “I left the class feeling like I’d just created a piece of my own mythology,” says Maya, a recent graduate of the goddess workshop class Long Island.

Beyond the wax, the workshop introduces a line of artisan body oils for goddess rituals. These oils are handcrafted with carrier bases like jojoba and sweet almond, infused with botanical extracts such as rose, lavender, and sandalwood. Participants learn how to integrate the oils into nightly meditations, using them to anoint wrists and temples while visualizing the goddess’s blessings. One attendee, James, shared, “I was skeptical about using body oil in a spiritual practice, but the blend I made for Aphrodite became my go‑to for a calming bedtime routine.”

The magic doesn’t stop at the studio door. After the class, you can easily buy goddess candles online, and the selection mirrors the workshop’s ethos—each candle is labeled with its deity inspiration, scent profile, and suggested ritual usage. The website’s “spiritual candle collection” feels like a curated boutique, where each product tells a story. My own favorite is the Persephone correspondence candle, which arrives in a recyclable kraft box, complete with a small parchment card that explains Persephone’s seasonal symbolism and offers a short meditation guide.

Testimonials from the community highlight how these products extend the workshop’s impact. “I ordered a set of three candles to mark the phases of the moon, and each night I light the appropriate one while journaling. The ritual has deepened my connection to the lunar cycle in a way I never imagined,” writes Lila, a longtime customer. Another reviewer, Carlos, mentions the “handcrafted goddess soap for rituals” from the goddess soap series Babylon NY, noting how the soap’s blend of frankincense and myrrh turns an ordinary shower into an offering to the divine.

If you’re curious about the soap line, the goddess soap series Babylon NY is designed to align with each of the 12 Olympian goddesses, with formulas that combine nourishing shea butter, coconut oil, and ethically sourced essential oils. The “handcrafted goddess soap for rituals” not only cleanses the skin but also serves as a tactile reminder of your chosen deity’s qualities. Customers often share that the visual design—golden swirls for Athena or deep indigo for Hecate—makes the product feel like a small altar piece.

One of the most heartfelt testimonials comes from Tara, who uses a combination of the goddess‑inspired handmade soap and the artisan body oils during her weekly goddess circle. “The soap’s scent instantly transports me to a temple garden, and the oil feels like a veil of protection,” she explains. “When I bring these elements to our circle, the energy shifts
