One of questions that I am asked most often on realm, is colour of candle should I burn for what purpose? And when ...As there is no book out there called Candle Burning for Dummies, I thought I would give you a quick crash course in correspondences of colour candles to magickal purposes. As a practicing witchlet, first thing you must do is learn how to
a) pray your heart out and b) laugh maniacally.
As far as Iım concerned, no spell is complete without fervent wishing and praying followed by a maniacal laugh (to seal spell.)
The second thing you must do is familiarize yourself with phases of moon. It is best to do most magic from New Moon to Full Moon period when moon is waxing. During this period, cosmic or astral energy is building and this is best for if you want to attract something to you ... like a lover, more money, more gerbils or whatever. From period of Full Moon to next New Moon is best for banishing spells -- getting rid of negativity, stalkers and like. www.artcharts.com has a nice ephemeris on it that tells you where moon is each day. This site also tells you when moon is what is called ³void of course²... you donıt want to start burning a candle while this is going lest your cosmic energy go astray ... of course if you have a question about whether a night is a good night to burn a candle, you can always email one of psychics (Mary Helene, Ruella, David, Lydia and myself are good choices) to help you with astrological aspects.
RED candles burnt during waxing mood period are used to attract more love, lust and drama into your life. They are especially good to burn during three days leading up to full moon to heighten erotic tension. They can also be used during waning moon period to drive a rival away (especially if used in conjunction with black candle.) However this is manipulative magick and could have some bad karma attached to it.
ORANGE candles bring you love, joy, luck, happiness, feasting and luck with children and pets. Wanna go to more parties? This is candle to burn.
GREEN candles increase cash flow and bring steady work. They represent growth, fertility, abundance and opportunity. Combined with a black candle during waning moon, they can help remove financial obstacles in your way.
YELLOW candles are for both spiritual and material riches and help align your will with heart. This is colour to burn you are confused about your career or professional matters...this is colour you want. It can also help you buy that new fridge or car. PINK candles bring tenderness, equilibrium and help you manifest higher qualities of love in your life -- patience, faith and compassion. Like orange, this can also be a fun candle and bring delight and surprises into your life. For a real lift, trying burning a yellow orange and pink candle together.
