Happy Australia Day 2026!

 It's Australia's national day, celebrated on January 26th.

Its the day that Aussies reflect on our history (good and bad), respect Indigenous cultures, and celebrate the nation's diversity with community events, awards, and citizenship ceremonies, encouraging unity and appreciation for the country's unique spirit and opportunities.  

Sadly though some of our communities have been targeted due to the unrest overseas and long standing fueds, with the recent Bondi Beach massacre leaving the nation shocked and their families devastated.

Every little bit we can do to help these families is vital to their healing (and the nations) and although there have been a few charities organised for them, and after researching I beleive the Bondi Beach Terror Attack Community Relief Appeal's message resonated with me the most.

Quote from their website: "This attack on Jewish Australians is an attack on all of us. It calls for compassion, solidarity, and meaningful action. In the weeks and months ahead, as those affected begin to heal, let them see Australians responding with open hearts and open hands."

"The Bondi Community Relief Appeal channels your support directly to communities reeling from this tragedy. Frontline organisations are working on the ground meeting immediate needs"

With Australia Day looming in a few weeks I wanted to do something from the GypsyLune Community to show our support and so I have created this "one off" unique candle fragranced with a blend of fresh smelling oils that together create a coastal vibe!

$20 from the sale of each candle will be donated to the Bondi Beach Terror Attack Community Relief Appeal.

My aim is to sell 50 of these candles so that we can donate $1,000 from the GypsyLune Community!

Oils: Lime, Lemon, Wild Freesia, Lavender, Amber and Sandalwood.  

Crystal: Snow Quartz also known as Milky Quartz symnbolises purity, calmenss, clarity and innocence helping to balance emotions, reduce stress, and foster self-love and compassion, making it excellent for meditation and clearing negative energy, particularly by connecting to the Crown Chakra for spiritual awareness and inner wisdom. It's a gentle but powerful stone for mental clarity, removing confusion, and promoting a positive mindset, especially for empaths or those needing grounding during stressful times,
