Here are some quick and fast rules that I use for any kind of candle magic I’m going to perform. These rules are going to be used for glass jar candles of the seven day variety but can be modified to work with any candle you’re going to use for a magical purpose.
- Charge the candle – This can be done a multitude of ways. You can hold the candle in your hands either in a prayer format (hands together like you’re praying with the candle cradled in between your two hands) or fist over fist (wrap both of your fists around the candle, one on top of the other) and then you’re going to visualize your final goal. Whatever that is. Let’s say I have a problem with my shoe laces coming undone and tripping me throughout the day. I want this candle to help keep my shoe laces tied so I’m going to visualize an entire day of me being happy that my shoe laces are tied. I’m to make this visualization so real in my mind’s eye that I can see it, taste it, touch it, smell it. Making the scene as seemingly real as possible. When I have the scene perfectly in my mind’s eye (as if it’s a memory) I’ll move on to step two.
- Give the candle life – We want all that energy we just invested into this candle to be utilized for that final goal. To do this we are going to give the candle “life”. Give it something that tells it to use that energy for this final goal. One way to do that is to breathe life into the candle. The same way we enter this world with a fresh breath of oxygen is the same way this candle will begin its own journey. Breathe in sharply into your nostrils and then out your mouth onto the wick while holding that image of your final goal in your mind’s eye.
- Go have fun – Worry destroys magic. Positive stressors like having fun prevent us from feeding negative stressors like worry. So, light your candle (safely away from any hanging burnable material, in a water dish, in a glass container, in a fireplace) and go do something fun. Stop worrying about the magic and let it happen.
*DISCLAIMER* I don’t take any responsibility for anything you do with an unattended fire. It is highly recommended that you watch every fire and put out any fire that you won’t accompany. Everything that I am saying is merely a suggestion based upon my personal experiences and I do not think my opinions were formed in the mind of greatness. Be safe. Have fun. Manifest your desires.
