Candles & Magick are used more often than any other physical implements in spellwork!
How lucky we are to have candles in our life! Candles & Magick bring many things into our existence, like brightness, warmth and energy. They can set a mood, like for a romantic dinner, or it can light the way when the power goes out! For me, its the first thing I do in the morning- light a candle!
It is amazing how just one lit candle can change the entire atmosphere of a room! Add several more, and you have changed it again ! We all use it to designate our sacred space. You wont find an Altar without at least one candle on it.
There are many Witches who have better luck with Candle magick than any other type of magick! Maybe because it is so easy and so readily available!
With most spell-work, you will find that the instructions almost always call for 1 white illuminator candle as well as any other colored candles required. The white candle represents protection and lights the way for whatever other intentions you have planned. The white candle is usually the first candle lit on your altar.
Yes, candles can change how you feel. When mixed with the right music and the right Intent, well here we go straight into Magick & Witchcraft! The Magick has always been there, we just have to tap into it!
Remember–Never leave candles burning unattended! Always use matches instead of a lighter, and never blow out a candle! Always snuff it out gently.
The use of candles in Magick & Wicca symbolizes the nature of intent by using various colors. It is also representative of the element Fire.
