Candle Magic Foundations<\/h2>\n

Candle magic works by linking the visual power of colour with the energy of intention. When you light a candle you create a focal point for your will, allowing the flame to carry the desire into the unseen realm.<\/p>\n

Choosing a Candle<\/h3>\n

Select a candle that feels right to you. Natural wax without synthetic fragrance gives the purest channel for energy. Trim the wick to about a quarter inch, cleanse the surface with a little salt water, and write your intention on the candle or on a piece of paper that you will place beneath it.<\/p>\n
