🌿 Ayo — The Story Behind the Candle In Yoruba, Ayo means “joy” — but it is not the fleeting kind. It speaks of deep, soulful joy, the type that bubbles up from gratitude and shines through resilience. Ayo is often used as a name given to children, a blessing spoken over a life that is hoped to be filled with happiness and prosperity. Across many African traditions, joy is not seen as something separate from struggle; instead, it is what sustains communities through hardship, a light carried forward. Lighting Ayo in your home is more than filling a room with fragrance — it is invoking this tradition of joy as resilience. 💡 Did you know? In Yoruba culture, board games like Ayo Ayo (also known as Mancala) have been played for centuries as a joyful pastime that connects families and teaches strategy. The very word “Ayo” can also be linked to gathering, play, and the happiness that comes from community. When you burn Ayo, it is an invitation to remember that joy is not something small — it is a powerful heritage, passed down, carried forward, and shared.
