A Collection of Autumn’s Secrets and the Power of the Shattered Gourd
When October drapes the world in shadowed gold, pumpkins do more than guard doorsteps. In the old stories, they were more than lanterns for lost souls — they were vessels. Vessels for wishes, for warnings, for power sealed tight until the night of the thinning veil.
The Smashing Pumpkins Box is a tribute to that ancient magic. Inside, you’ll find treasures steeped in pumpkin lore, from sweetly spiced pumpkin chai to rich cinnamon caramels — and, of course, the mysterious candle of the month.
To break a pumpkin was to break open the spirit of autumn itself. Farmers whispered it brought luck to the harvest. Witches knew it could scatter evil with its blaze of orange flesh. Smash one at midnight and you release what hides inside — light, shadow, or something far stranger.
This candle captures that power: a spark of warmth in the season of endings, a reminder that even when shells crack and crumble, what’s inside burns brighter than ever. October teaches that death is not an ending but a doorway, and pumpkins — humble, glowing, waiting to be broken — are keys.
Light your candle. Break the shell. Welcome what comes through.
