a small-batch ritual goods business created and operated by Cedar Kuzma (they/them). The work is shaped by personal practice, lived experience, and a focus on creating accessible, intentional ritual tools.
What follows is the evolution of Modern Magix—from its beginnings to where it is today.
Modern Magix is rooted in early experiences with Wiccan-influenced traditions and the broader world of metaphysical supplies and ritual tools. For many—including myself—this initial exposure shaped how magic, candle work, and Western spiritual practice were understood during the early 2000s.
Early experiences within this space were often shaped by resources that emphasized expensive tools and uncommon materials. Over time, I began to notice that the ...
Modern Magix began as a small hobby shop, rooted in a desire to create handmade ritual tools from within lived practice itself. What started as a shared interest between myself and my co-founder in the metaphysical quickly became something more intentional.
From the beginning, the focus was on creating ritual tools that felt personal, accessible, and connected to real practice. My aim was to offer ready-to-use charms and spell-based items crafted by ...
Each Modern Magix candle is developed through a layered approach, combining herbal correspondences, color associations, gemstone pairings, scent, and symbolism into a single intentional ritual tool. This process allows each candle to function as a complete, ready-to-use piece without requiring additional materials.

Sustainability is a foundational part of how Modern Magix operates, shaping both materials and process. From reused packaging to repurposed production waste, each step is approached with the intention to reduce waste and reuse materials wherever possible.

What began as a small hobby has grown into a full-time business shaped by ongoing refinement of both craft and process. As demand increased, so did the need for consistency, performance, and scalability within my handmade ritual candles.
After partnering with a start-up subscription box company, production demands quickly expanded beyond what could be sustained using reclaimed materials alone. This shift led me to begin working with eco-friendly raw ...
As my practice evolved, so did my understanding of the broader metaphysical landscape and the responsibility involved in creating ritual tools. This shift led me toward more intentional, informed approaches to both product development and spiritual practice.
Over time, I moved away from strictly Wiccan-influenced frameworks, shifting instead toward astrology and intention-based ritual work. This change informed offerings centered around specific ...
Today, Modern Magix operates as a home-based studio focused on creating small-batch ritual tools grounded in intention, accessibility, and everyday practice. The work continues to evolve while remaining rooted in the core values it was built on.
In 2025, I purchased a home in Lewiston, Maine and transitioned Modern Magix from a separate workspace back into a home-based studio. Shortly after the move, I began working closely with my partner to develop a ...
