Here's a bit more about Candlemas...
Some ancient peoples marked this mid-way winter point as the turn to Spring and to help us get through the remaining darker weeks--the focus was on light, using candles. Christians added to this, celebrating this final day of three winter days that focus on Jesus as the Light of God coming into the world. We bless candles to use in church and in our homes.
