The literal translation of Memento Mori is “remember to die”, but over time has evolved into a reminder of the impermanence of life and to honor those who have left before us while Amor Vincit Omnia tells us that “Love Conquers All” and to always hold those dearest in our hearts and minds. Memento Mori contains a special combination of oils to generate loving memories of those we have lost, while acknowledging the grief felt by those left behind.

The white candle represents the highest level of consciousness. Burning a white candle conjoined with a meditative state is to seek protection, healing and purification. White also represents truth, unity, harmony, the wholeness of spirit and light.

Memento Mori is prepared with rose oil, one of the highest vibrating florals, to open the heart and connect with loving energy and the angelic realm. The relaxing scent of lavender aids in quieting the mind and focus. Sandalwood is believed to help transition the soul into the next life and carry messages in between the realms. Myrtle is used to uplift vibration while lilac is for protection.
