Create a mystical and gothic atmosphere with this candle holder featuring a bat. It has a base on its back to hold a candle to light (2cm in diameter).
Considered a sign of bad omen in the Middle Ages, bats are also depicted as ingredients in witches' cauldrons or as one of the forms of vampires, even as partners of the devil.
Conversely, in Asia, this animal is a symbol of luck, and it is customary to give objects representing a bat at weddings to wish joy and happiness.
Far from superstitions, it is simply a creature with a nocturnal lifestyle that fascinates more than it should worry.

Buy the Bat Statue / Candle Holder in Our Esoteric Shop
This bat-shaped candle holder brings a strong visual presence, ideal for creating a dark and crafted atmosphere. It features a base located on its back, designed to hold a candle about 2 cm in diameter. Its expressive shape makes it both a decorative and functional object, perfect for an altar or interior space. It accompanies your lighting moments with a bold aesthetic, without any complexity in use.
A Symbol Full of Interpretations
The bat holds a special place in ancient representations. In the Middle Ages, it was associated with bad omens and appears in many stories related to witches or nocturnal figures. It is also linked to the imagery of vampires and certain representations of the invisible world. Conversely, in Asia, it symbolizes luck and prosperity, to the point of being given at weddings to wish happiness and joy. This diversity of interpretations makes it a rich symbol, capable of fitting into multiple readings.
An Accessory to Create a Unique Atmosphere
Beyond symbols, the bat remains a nocturnal animal that intrigues and draws the eye. This candle holder allows you to incorporate this figure into your space, bringing a particular atmosphere. Once the candle is lit, the light highlights its shapes and enhances its visual impact. It is used in a simple setting, to accompany a moment of calm or enrich a decor with an original and striking presence.
The right gesture
How do you use a ritual candle?
A candle is a physical support for magical work: its flame accompanies a prayer, invocation, request, seal, talisman or more elaborate operation. Before lighting it, clearly define the aim of the work, then choose its colour and, if desired, the most suitable moment.
It may be used as it is or prepared by carving a name, a few words, a symbol, seal or intention into the wax. It may also receive a small amount of ritual oil or powder suited to the work.
Three key choices
Intention · colour · moment
A precise gesture matters more than quantity.
Correspondences
Which candle colour should you choose?
Correspondences may vary between schools. These associations provide a clear foundation for Western ritual magic.
- White
Purification, peace, protection, clarity, spiritual work. A neutral colour when no specific one is available.
- Black
Banishing, distancing, severing, protection, neutralising unwanted influences.
- Grey
Neutralisation, calming conflict, erasing an influence, discretion, distance, finding a middle ground.
- Red
Passion, desire, courage, strength, vitality, action, willpower.
- Pink
Affectionate love, tenderness, reconciliation, closeness, affection, friendship.
- Green
Money, prosperity, growth, fertility, material development, business.
- Blue
Peace, harmony, calm, healing, protection, loyalty, emotional balance.
- Dark blue
Authority, justice, protection, professional success, legal matters, social influence, work under Jupiter.
- Yellow
Intelligence, study, communication, trade, eloquence, mental clarity.
- Orange
Success, opportunities, energy, attraction, openness, progress.
- Purple
Personal power, ambition, mastery, authority, occult faculties, spiritual work.
- Gold
Sun, success, radiance, honours, vitality, recognition, achievement.
- Silver
Moon, intuition, dreams, receptivity, perception, lunar workings.
Before lighting
Prepare the candle
Carve
Carve a name, request, word, symbol or seal into the wax with a needle, point or small tool kept for this purpose.
Anoint
If the ritual calls for it, apply a very thin layer of ritual oil to the wax. A few drops are enough.
Dust
If the work includes powder, use only a small amount so that it adheres to the oil.
Never overload the candle. Keep clumps of plants, resins, powder or oil well away from the wick: the candle must be able to burn normally, without an excessive flame.
Planetary rhythm
Which day should you choose?
Each day of the week is associated with one of the seven classical planets. Choosing the day aligns the work with the nature of the operation.
SundaySun
Success, authority, recognition, vitality, accomplishment.
MondayMoon
Intuition, dreams, home, receptivity, lunar matters.
TuesdayMars
Courage, strength, defence, conflict, action, separation.
WednesdayMercury
Trade, communication, study, writing, intelligence, negotiation.
ThursdayJupiter
Prosperity, expansion, social success, justice, authority, honours.
FridayVenus
Love, attraction, closeness, pleasure, harmony.
SaturdaySaturn
Limitation, distancing, severing, obstacles, closure, constraint work.
The planetary day begins at sunrise — not at midnight.
Work performed before sunrise therefore still belongs to the previous planetary day.
There is no requirement to wait for a specific day. This system simply helps you choose a moment aligned with your aim when you wish to give the operation more structure.
Going further
Refine the timing with planetary hours
You may begin during the hour of the planet that matches your intention: a Venus working on Friday during an hour of Venus, or prosperity work during an hour of Jupiter.
These hours are not always 60 minutes long. The time between sunrise and sunset is divided into twelve periods, then the night into twelve more. Their length varies with the date and place.
The day and hour do not both have to correspond: the day provides the first framework and the hour simply refines the timing.
Calculate planetary hoursPutting it into practice
Light the candle
Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant holder. Light it at the start of the work while stating your prayer, invocation, request or intention, then continue according to the practice being followed.
Some operations call for the candle to burn completely; others use several successive lightings. There is no universal rule that it must always burn to the end: follow the instructions of the rite first.
Here, we don’t judge.
No matter where you come from, what you believe in, or what you’re looking for: you belong here. You can be a beginner, curious, a casual practitioner, or a daily witch. What matters is sincere intention.
We believe in all forms of magic.
High magic and its rigorous rituals deserve as much respect as spells passed down in the countryside. We read grimoires, respect rites, listen to old stories. Everything practiced with faith deserves serious and curious attention.
We welcome all traditions.
We don’t put one path above another. We talk hoodoo, kabbalah, Christian prayers, elemental magic, folk rituals, Celtic symbols. What matters is respect. Not the label.
We work cleanly.
Each package is carefully prepared by us, here in France. Before shipping, it is purified so it arrives at your home cleansed and positively charged. We strive to use recyclable packaging and reduce our impact as much as possible.
We stay available.
Customer service is us. Not an AI, not a robot, not a call center. If you have a question, a doubt, a problem, you reach us—the same people who select the products, write the descriptions, and prepare the packages.
We stay human-sized.
We are a small passionate team with big ambitions, hands in the herbs, books, and boxes. And we want to keep it that way.
