Candle Selene and Helios — Goddess of the Moon and God of the Sun

Inspired by Selene, goddess of the Moon, and Helios, god of the Sun, this sculptural candle represents two celestial powers whose journeys bring light, rhythm and order to the heavens in The Goddess and the Gods by Afra Dita Saga.

In the book, Selene and Helios are divine siblings — children of the Titans Hyperion and Theia. Helios carries the light of the Sun across the heavens from east to west, while Selene illuminates the night with the pale light of the Moon. Together, their celestial journeys become part of the eternal rhythm of the world — the passage from day into night and from night into day.

Selene and Helios also became part of the Afra Dita Saga video series on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and Threads where their journeys through the heavens and the emerging rhythm of the celestial world were brought to life visually. Selene and Helios first appeared in the Afra Dita Saga video series in Video No. 55. Watch their story on social media @afraditasaga.

Handmade by the Author

Each Selene and Helios candle is handmade from soy wax by Afra Dita Saga herself, the author of The Goddess and the Gods, releasing November 1, 2026.

Every candle is individually crafted rather than mass-produced. Because of the handmade process, small variations in color, surface, shape or fine details may occur.

No two candles are exactly alike — each Selene and Helios candle is unique.
