Just like every article or introduction to candle magick starts I would also like to bring your attention to the times when you burn the candle on your birthday cake and make a wish before that. Ever wonder where it came from, why such ritual exists? Think! Think!
Candle magick works on the same principle. Wish upon a candle and see your wishes manifest. The only difference is that you do birthday ritual only once a year but this could be done everyday, anytime. It is the most easily done form of magick that’s why I profess on it so much. Fire is the element that dominates the candle magick, fire is known to purify, destroy, give life, and it represents higher powers.
Behind every magic, intention is the most important ingredient. The reason I say to burn a particular candle for 30-31 days is so that your everyday focus on your desire enhances. I will list the important elements that can improve your experience with candle magick.
Colour
The colours play very important role in the candle magick. Every colour has a frequency that co-ordinates with how you feel.

Yellow: heals depression, confidence, intelligence, enhances visualization, joy
Essential Oils
Dressing the candles with essential oils or using scented candles enhance your several senses which can be useful in magnifying your intentions.
Inscription
You can inscribe the name, the intention on the candles. e.g. for drawing money you can inscribe ‘Money’ on the candle. For love spells you may write the name of the person on the candle.
Candles have always been part of various practices. So you might have understood that it is easy-to-do, affordable and very powerful form of magic.
