Sincerely May: A Month of Purpose, Planetary Rhythm & Presence

This May, we’re pouring more than wax—we’re pouring purpose.

Another new bloom is unfurling, and I couldn’t be more uneasy. A candle collection I’ve dreamed of for years is finally ready to take shape in physical form and I am that kind of excited which also feels like nervous. Inspired by embodied astrology, Sincerely's AstroLuminate collection is born out of a desire to help us stay grounded in the natural rhythms of the world which are expressed by the stories of antiquity as evolved through the ages.

For me, aligning with the rhythm of the planets has been a powerful way to build healthy support systems during seasons of “heavy winds.” But just as important, it’s taught me the value of being moldable, staying rooted without becoming rigid. That kind of inner flexibility is, I believe, the key to sustainability; both in life and in business.

Introducing the AstroLuminate Collection

Each time the sun changes signs, we’ll release a new candle set designed to be a tool guiding us home to ourselves.  This intentional collection helps us tune in to cosmic timing while grounding us in the present moment. Each set will include the following.

🌞 Sun in Gemini Candle

Celebrate the upcoming Gemini season with our Sun in Gemini Candle. Infused with a refreshing blend of mandarin, lemon, bergamot, ginger, jasmine, white tea, and amber this candle embodies the airy and communicative spirit of Gemini. Light it to inspire curiosity, adaptability, and clear expression. Embedded with a beautiful Incantation.

Try one for yourself!

🌙 12 Moon Minis & Astrology Guide

Stay in tune with the lunar cycle using our 12 Moon Minis, each crafted to correspond with the 12 signs of the zodiac as the moon shifts every couple of days. Accompanied by a comprehensive astrology guide and 12 moon-aligned meditations, this set encourages mindfulness of the location of the moon and intentional living throughout Gemini Season.

🔮 Venus in Aries Crystal Bundle

May is Mental Health Awareness Month

As a candle-maker and a mother who’s spent years using creativity as a pathway to healing, I know how powerful it can be to create space for pause and reflection. That’s why I’m proud to share that 10% of all sales this month will be donated to Daymark Recovery Services of Asheboro. Their mission is to inspire and empower people to seek support for their mental health and substance use recovery needs—a mission we stand behind with open hearts. Because healing takes community. And we believe in showing up for ours.

From moonlight to market lights, we're staying Sincerely In-Sync—and we invite you to do the same.
