One of the reasons candles appear in so many magical traditions is because they are inherently sympathetic. @ @
The candle becomes a stand-in for a person, situation, outcome, or intention.
The flame then acts upon it…You’re creating a physical representation of an invisible process, and because the candle is acting as a substitute, what happens to the candle matters.
-What you add to it matters
-What you carve into it matters
-What oils you dress it with matter
-What herbs, resins, colours, symbols, prayers, timing, and actions surround it matter.
If you want to amplify a working, you amplify the candle 🕯️
