Introduction

W

elcome to your new magickal life. In this book, you will take back and strengthen your internal power by learning the fundamentals of candle magick! In no time, you will go from being a novice to proficient magician and manifestation machine, fully able to transform your own reality. This book is for beginners who would like to create a sustaining magickal practice by performing simple spells that can improve your life and wellbeing.

Candle magick is practiced in everyday normal life. Just think of when you have a birthday. Several candles get placed on a delicious offering as you make a wish to ring in the New Year. You then blow out these candles with the intention in your breath. How about when your house feels stagnant or you want to change the energy of your room? You grab your favorite candle, turn the lights down, and tidy up your space – a.k.a. candle ritual. We even have the typical romantic vibe of sitting down with someone special with a small lit (and often red) candle between the two of you. Conversations get interesting as you get to know each other. Hopes and future dreams melt into the candle wax as you gaze at each other and exchange subtle energies of love. Wow! As you can see, there is no limit to how candle magick can conveniently fit into your world to help you manifest your deepest desires. The potency of magick interwoven in our lives without us knowing it surely proves its significance.

It’s important to note that magick and the use of modern-day witchcraft are tools to unleash your personal power. Although you can ritualize with any intention you wish, it is best to not use it as a tool against others. Magick, when used with a love-based intention, makes the world an even more beautiful place. In this comprehensive guide, you will get a rich and stable foundation that you can easily expand on over time. The chapters that follow offer you lessons on harnessing personal power, increasing self-awareness, and accessing the higher intuitive or psychic abilities within yourself.

Manifestation, or grey magick, is one of the most widely used forms of magick often used with candle ritual. As a first step before entering the lessons within this book, you must now start to detach yourself from any outcome that life has in store for you. As you study energy and start adopting these new principles of natural laws, you’ll soon realize that whether your desired outcome comes to fruition or not is beside the point. The practice of witchcraft and magick can be enhanced through the elements, self-directed intuition, and practical tools. This book is here for the sole purpose to guide you safely through the process.

What you will gain after reading this book is permission to live a life that is rooted in listening to yourself as well as working with the energy you can feel, move, and transmute. Not only will you start casting spells, but you will evolve and have a deeper understanding of your true self.

Let’s get started.

Chapter 1:

What is Magick?

B

elief, intention, and internal truth are some of the fundamentals of magick. When we have this understanding, the abilities and efforts given towards spell casting and ritual become stronger, thereby resulting in a life filled with focused intention and desired outcome.

Ambient Magick & Practical Magick: How to Use Both

Ambient magick is a term used to define life around us. Magick is natural, and most of the time, people have been aware of its properties without knowing how to make it work for them. Ambient magick is found in plants from their beautiful designs, colors, and smells to the totem animals or animal spirit guides that hold certain energies or wisdom for us to refer to. There are even objects we put our energy into like crystals, or the candles we cast spells with, and other various artifacts we use to connect with the Universe.

With ambient magick, there is no real need to do anything for it to exist and be available for you to work with. All that needs to be understood is the natural expression, energies, and vibratory frequencies contained in the subtleties of magick. It’s around us and supporting our lives whether we believe in its presence or not!

Practical magick, on the other hand, is where the fun work comes in. When we use ambient energy through worship, spell casting, ritual, and self-care, we turn this natural resting energy into what is called practical, which means that magick is in practice when this force is being used. When the elements are used, the laws have been understood, and the right instruments have been put in place, the ability to transform with magick enhances your personal power and creates a thriving belief system.

Natural Hermetic Laws: The Three Planes

Mental

The mental plane is where our mind sits. It is the seed of how we take in information, interpret its meaning, and subsequently live life according to what was processed. The mental plane is where we contemplate our wildest dreams and fantasies, but it is also the place where we hear our running tapes on repeat. Don’t be fooled; you are not your mind. You are not any one of these planes individually, but all three simultaneously. The mental plane holds the memories, downloads, and information to a specific and very unique life experience. It opens the best doorway to convey perspective and express self-understanding. 

The mental plane crosses through our imagination and gives us the ability to have sight beyond sight while playing an important part in our intuitive life. When the mental plane is used successfully and cohesively, manifestation becomes more accessible. Spellcasting and intention come from the mind. It is what you think and ruminate about that give the results you truly want. If you are constantly thinking about how unworthy you are for love, but try to cast a spell for love, it may not work for you. There needs to be faithful and true belief in your ability to love and be loved. Talking to yourself well and surrounding yourself with those who support this high vibrational part of you will only take your mental plane to new heights.

When the refreshment of language and internal thoughts start to lighten, mental practices of sitting and listening cannot only calm the nervous system and make the body rested, but can
