We here at Mithras think the sun does a fantastic job this time of year - especially in this hemisphere and at this latitude. In fact, this life and lightbringer do SUCH a good job over the Summer that it gives us a chance to slow down a bit and take life in, process and just be. We believe humans have annual rhythms (circannual rhythms... just like hamsters) that we need to honor. Happy Summer Solstice to all of our supporters, customers and friends... and don't worry, we'll be here slinging beautiful waxy flamebringers online all during the Summer season, posting (lazily) from time to time and ready to get busy again once the light starts to wane a bit again in Fall!
Birthday candles coming soon?!? 😉 (Sometimes the Lord of Light gets inspired and needs to make a custom lil' beeswax light for a sweetie's trip around the sun day🍰🕯🎁🎉🤗)
It's finally spring here at Mithras HQ! We burn our 100% beeswax candles all year round, how about you? 🐝🌷🕯🐝 #beeswaxcandles #beeswax #handmade #candles #spring #crocus #fortheloveofbees #phillyhandmade #goldenglow
There's a terrible Nor'easter tearing through the area tonight. Our hearts go out to everyone suffering this storm - our power has been lost at the Mithras Sanctum as well. It's a good thing we have plenty of warmth and light bringers on hand! This old bust of King Tut will watch over us in our time of need #poweroutage #getspooky #lightthedarkness #beeswax #candles #homemade #light #tutankhamun #michters #whiskey
In my candle making practice with Mithras and as a researcher of light - I'm always striving to reconnect with those elemental photonic forces that impact us emotionally, physiologically and spiritually. I found what I was looking for this weekend and hope to transfer some of this energy back into our work for the coming year. A big thank you to the city of Pittsburgh for being full of wondrous art, mystery and mirth - to our customers who support our wild wax creations - and, specifically, to @postnaturalhistory and @dskessler for being such beautiful, brilliant and supportive humans. 💕✌🔥 #urbanvisionquest #transmutation #candlemakinglife
As guild members, we're so happy to be a part of the 2018 Philadelphia Beekeeper's Symposium at the wonderful Franklin Institute Science museum! Excellent lectures on wild bees, conservation and more...
Just a cold Sunday January evening at Mithras HQ . . . #beeswaxcandle #longnights #handmade #beeswax #candles #phillymade #candlelight is the #bestlight for #winternights #pyramidcandle

From our candle lair to yours: Wishing everyone a very peaceful and joyous Solstice filled with warmth and light... Maybe with a lil' side of spookiness and frost. ✌😘

First snowfall of the season out at the Mithras Lair! Snapped a quick #fireandice shot using a beautifully finished pillar stand crafted by @understorywoodworks ... he uses fallen branches from our own neighborhood. 🌲
