Product Information

Place your candle in a cleansed, sacred space and return to it at about the same time each night to focus on your goal until the candle is finished or for a set number of nights. Keep a watch on the flame and pay attention to how it moves. When you feel untethered, brown candles can help ground you. Brown candles represent the earth and are ideal for any situation that calls for neutrality, understanding, balance, and building trust. They may also help you have a stronger connection with animal guides. Purple

I implore you to embrace a positive attitude because I know that candle magic for money or other candle magic spells like green candle spells usually works for people that have cast away the heavy burden of the pain from the past and replaced it with feelings of gratitude and peace. Soon as you start to feel like that, you will begin to notice that things in your life change for the better. You will start to attract into your life only those things that build you and bring you happiness. The importance of a goal Blue is connected to the West and the element of Water. It carries a gentle, but powerful energy. There are many shades of blue, and each one has its own significance. Dark blue promotes joy and laughter and is influential on emotions and dreaming, where royal blue signifies loyalty and fealty. In spellwork, blue candles are used for emotional healing, truth and justice. Blue can also help to awaken and/or heal the psychic part of your mind. You have probably been a part of many candle rituals by now. Have you ever made a wish before blowing the candles on your birthday cake? Ancient Greeks started the tradition ¹ of decorating cakes with lit candles in honor of the Goddess Artemis. A round pie was meant to symbolize the moon, and the candles were the light radiating from it.This act was a sacred one, and still remains to be. Every year we gather with our friends and family to evoke Magic, strength and hope. A mildly eccentric ex-colonial civil servant whose influences ranged from Hinduism to folk magic to freemasonry, Gardner conceived of a celebratory religion whose focus was on the power of the natural world. Wiccan rituals generally begin with the drawing of a magic circle, offerings to the elements and the four directions, and continue with a series of rituals, incantations and chants whose power rests in the symbolic marriage of male and female. But does that amount to a religion? Vivianne Crowley says it does: "A religion is a set of ritual acts and practices invoking or calling up the divine. By that definition, Wicca is undoubtedly a religion."If you are going to use candle magic, it is important for you to start by deciding what it is that you want to achieve. I know many people confuse goals with wishes. Everybody can wish because a wish is easy to make. People who make wishes never go past that step and decide how they are going to achieve their wishes. However, those who make goals have learned to be specific. They are realistic and don’t just fantasize about impossible things. When they use of candle magic, they always remember never to use the power of magic for selfish ends like hurting other people. Candle magic for beginners I’m always a big proponent of you doing what feels best for your spirituality. If you are called to read the signs, read the candle signs! If not, don’t. Trust your intuition. A yellow candle will help strengthen your focus and powers of visualization during a ritual of Magic. This color is used to stimulate mental clarity and knowledge but can also bring joy, prosperity and the power to connect with our identity. It’s great for requests of creativity, materialization and trust. Gray candles, often overlooked in the spectrum of candle magic, hold a unique significance that aligns with subtler aspects of spirituality. Representing neutrality and balance, gray candles are employed in rituals aimed at harmonizing conflicting energies, fostering introspection, and seeking compromise. To begin, make sure your candles are clear of defects, as these reduce the candle’s magical potency. Situate your candle in a cleansed space where it will be free from disturbances, creating a sacred and undisturbed environment.

White soot is a far rarer occurrence, and is said to represent spiritual communication and assistance. Choose candles of different colors to align with specific intentions. Each color holds its own symbolism and energy. The power you’re harnessing in candle magic is energizedby the element of fireandsymbolizes change, new beginnings, and transformation. By incorporating color magic into your spiritual practice with candles, you apply each color’s spiritual meaning to your intentions. Next is dressing the candle in oil. The kind of oil you use isn’t important. Plain old olive oil will work well if you don’t have anything else to use. Often, this oil has been blessed or enchanted in some way. A simple “may this oil carry my will into reality” can suffice. Many people prescribe a specific direction of applying the oil depending on the type of spell (from the center to the ends for banishing, from the ends to the center for attracting magic) but I find that simply going from top to bottom works just as well for me. Do what feels right for you.A red candle is ideal for when you need a push starting a new project, or igniting a fiery love. This color connects you with your desires and everything related to new beginnings.

Dedicate a piece of rope to magic. Following the same lunar pattern as for candle magic, each night tie one knot in the rope while strongly visualising what you wish to achieve. Tie the knots towards you to draw your object inward and away from you to dispel it. Witches' ladders have a long tradition in Cornwall, where they were commonly sold to fishermen before a trip out to sea. Untying the first knot would unleash a light breeze, the second a stronger wind and so on. A witches' ladder also refers to a string of 40 beads used like a rosary as an aid to concentrated repetition. Clearly define whether this magical work is intended for yourself or for another person. If you are casting a spell for someone else, it is essential to first get their permission. Otherwise, you might be working against their free will, breaking one of the most basic Rules Every Witch Should Know. 2. Choosing a Candle Types of candles for spellcasting If the flame is big: Quinn tells mbg that the flame size can tell you a lot about how much energy you're working with. As you can imagine, a big flame means this is a very energized reading. Recite a simple incantation or affirmation that aligns with your intention. For example, you could say something like:

Candles can be purified and consecrated before their use in a ritual for any Magical purpose. By anointing the candles we are charging them with our intentions and willpower. This is also done to eliminate all residual energies from any person who handled the candles before you bought them. Disposing of spell remains is a rather personal subject. Some witches like to just throw spell remnants in the trash, others into a fire. The only thing I really do not recommend is burying spell remnants or throwing them into natural bodies of water. Unless absolutely everything being buried is biodegradable it’s pretty much just littering.
