Candle burning tips If you have any experience with candles, you will know of those that smoke or tunnel and drown. This is not because you have purchased cheap candles. What I mean by that is that it smokes, tunnels, or the wick drowns in its own wax. All of these scenarios can be avoided by properly burning your candle and maintaining them between burns. A candle that smokes would be the problem we would tackle first. With all the different types of ingredients, all candles differ by a great deal. They all have different waxes, wicks, additives, dyes and colorants, and fragrances (natural and synthetic). Each concoction would make a different type of candle. Despite what you have heard, all candles will smoke if not maintained properly, yes even the popular natural soy candles or white unscented candles. Black soot can not be a problem if you cut the wick before each burn with a wick trimmer. Cut your wick to a quarter of an inch before you light it, and do this every time....

Humankind made the discovery of fire somewhere between 250,000 and 500,000 years ago. We learned and evolved into a species determined to harness the energy and power of the flame. Through the ages, it was the Witches and Mages that studied the properties of fire and wax. The candle dates back to some unrecorded time before the Greek City States. Candles were lit and their light used to illuminate the altars of the Gods and Goddesses of the Old World. Today candles are used in modern ritual work, but are so often given a passive role. Few practitioners know the true powers of the candle and many only use it as a light source. The power of the candle can greatly enhance your magical workings. When you use candle magic, you are initiating change in the Universe, being either constructive or destructive in nature. The universal energies are themselves neutral, and are therefore neither good nor bad. How you use your magic will shape the type of energy that is rendered in the end. Alw...

Novelty candles make fun and festive decorations for holidays and other occasions, and the most fanciful novelty candles are found at Halloween. As figural candles (such as black cats, red devils, skulls, and the like) are also used in American folk magic, the availability of Halloween candles suggests many possibilities for imaginative spell working. The following are some magical suggestions for Halloween candles. In some of these spells, you personify the candle as a friend, while in others you objectify it as a problem to be burned off. In all cases, the candle is a helper whose joy in serving is to be burned down to release its light.

As golden orbs, they represent a successful harvest and Autumn’s abundance. Simple pumpkin candles are best displayed when part of a centerpiece or other arrangement of aut...
