We have taken time to design this candle to bring proper glory and respect to the folk saint, High John the Conqueror, and restore his image to it's royal status with representing him as the Prince he was. The candle features the flowers of the High John root, Ipomoea Jalapa as well as the corn from the magickal field he he was able to spring forth due to his power and his princely crown. Here is his story; Any working for success, luck, prosperity, manifestation, drawing, attraction, power, or gambling will call for this root. It can be added to any spell for extra power. John's story- John the Conqueror was an African prince who was sold as a slave in the Americas. Despite his enslavement, his spirit was never broken and he survived in folklore as a trickster figure, because of the tricks he played to evade his masters. In one traditional John the Conqueror story, John falls in love with the Devil's daughter. The Devil sets John a number of impossible tasks: he must clear sixty acres of land in half a day, and then sow and reap the 60 acres with corn in the last half of the day. The Devil's daughter furnishes John with a magical axe and plow to use for these impossible tasks, but warns John that her father means to kill him even if he performs them. John and the Devil's daughter steal the Devil's own horses; the Devil pursues them, but they escape his clutches by shape-shifting. In "High John De Conquer", Zora Neale Hurston reports that: like King Arthur of England, he has served his people. And, like King Arthur, he is not dead. He waits to return when his people shall call him again. . . High John de Conquer went back to Africa, but he left his power here, and placed his American dwelling in the root of a certain plant. Only possess that root, and he can be summoned at any time. Your candle will be dressed for you, upon order. It is fixed with genuine high john root pieces and oil and will include a High John Root and matching 1 ounce oil.
