Introduction

This path you’re about to walk on is full of magic and wonder. In this book, you’ll discover the power found in fire and wax, how to connect to worlds beyond the physical, and how to cause great things to flow to you, greater things than you’ve ever imagined.

As a true magician — not the party tricks or illusions kind — you can work with the laws of the Universe to bring to being whatever you desire, if you channel your energy the right way. You cannot get concrete results without focusing your intention because that’s where the magic truly lies. It’s the key to manifesting whatever you desire. That alone can make amazing things for you, but if you need a little extra oomph to get you over hurdles set by opposing forces, then you will find that candle spells are your best friends. Even when your intention isn’t all that solid, the flame and wax will clothe your dreams in the garment of reality.

This book will shed light on the fundamental principles of candle work so that you can begin right away to cast your spells. If you already have some experience working with candles, you’ll find they are a friendly companion that adds more depth to your work. If you want, feel free to begin working with spells before you finish the book and be amazed at the magic that you unleash in your life.

You might be worried that you will need to learn some complex spells, offer your soul to Baal, and meditate 72 hours in a day before you can practice candle magic, but I assure you this is not the case here. These spells are simple, and simple is magical, meaning you will get results. You will also have a lot of options, and when you get the hang of it, you can make the spells your own. The trick is to understand the meaning behind each candle, number, and symbol, so you can be more specific when dealing with your issues using candle spell work.

All you need is the ability to light a match. If you begin to create your own spells, even better. You’ll learn how to use the candles, dress them with the right herbs and oils, augment their power with other candles, and channel your intentions as you work. Adding in variety will supercharge whatever you send out into the Universe, and you will be pleased with the boost. However, remember that you always have the option to just keep things simple.

Know right off the bat that there’s no such thing as a weak or strong candle spell. It’s more about using the correct spell for your intention. If it’s a simple thing you’d like to resolve, one candle could be more than enough. If you have a more complex issue to deal with that has many moving parts, then you might prefer a spell with extra parts or steps, but either way, you’re not going to find stuff so complicated that you’re too paralyzed to even begin procuring your candle magic tools, let alone cast the spell.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that the more involved your spell is, with more candles of the right sort, the more magical the moment will be for you — and that magical feeling doesn’t hurt, either. It’s the difference between having hotdogs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day versus having a proper, home-cooked meal. You could do either, but why not both? (Because, you know, balance is good). So, are you eager to begin this journey? Of course, you are. Let’s begin.

Chapter One

Candle Magic Basics

Fire is transformational. If that sounds dramatic or like I’m coaxing out your inner pyromaniac, that’s not the case, I promise. When you do magical rituals with fire, you will notice that change comes quickly and for the better. Before you go casting spells, you need to have a clear idea of why you’re learning this and what true magic is. You also need to think about what you intend to accomplish and whether said intentions are pure or are meant to hurt others.

Imagine how cool it was for our ancestors when they discovered fire. These days, no one really thinks much about this mighty element. There are other magical elements — water, air, earth, and ether, but fire is unique. It signifies creation, manifestation, rebirth, will, and action. It’s always been an intrinsic part of magical acts. With the magical fire from a lit candle, you can channel your intentions and use your spells to give birth to your preferred reality.

Why Candle Magic?

The difference between candle magic and other magical practices like using talismans, gris-gris bags, incense, oils, sigils, chants, potions, spell bottles, and others is that candle magic accelerates the manifestation of the objective of your ritual. If you want results and you want them right away, you’re making the right choice by walking into the magical flame of candle spell work.

Working with candles is also great because it gives you lots of room to get creative. You can use candles to set intentions, make wishes, or to invite ancestral spirits and deities to your ritual space. You can work them to fit a particular situation you want to address in your life. If you’re only learning the ropes, you can use just one candle to bring your intentions to life. If you love to go all out with rituals, you can add more or tweak your ritual so that it feels right.

Yet another cool thing about candles is that they can magnify your focus. From the process of lighting them to putting them out, you have no choice but to become hyper-aware of what you’re doing, especially if you don’t want to burn yourself or your home down. So, if you’ve ever tried other forms of magic and found you can’t stay focused, candle spells are the way to go.

Also, you can get instant feedback on how the spell is working out by learning to read the flames of the candle and watching the way it burns. You can also gain insight from what’s left of the candle and see if there are other things you need to clean up or address to get your spell working at maximum capacity.

Finally, candle work makes you feel magical and amplifies your belief that what you’re doing will work. The true power rests in you, you see, so the more you surrender to the fact that candle magic works, the more your faith will be, and the faster and more radical the results you’ll have.

Are You Qualified?

When thinking of practical magic, some people assume that it is best left to those who have been at it for years, sold their soul to Baron Samedi, or learned to levitate with the best of Tibetan monks. The good news is you don’t need all that. Sure, it helps to learn from someone who already knows the way and can show you the ropes, as that can be very rewarding, but you can do this all by yourself. That’s the whole point of candle magic. It’s about recognizing the spark of divinity within you, knowing that there is the power you carry in your soul, that you are part of this cosmic soup and therefore can mold it as you deem fit.

If you really want to get serious about casting spells, then you need to understand the root of everything magical: Thoughts. Everything you know and can see first began as a thought. The words you’re reading right now, the cup you sipped your morning tea or coffee from, the clothes on your back, and the comfy seat you’ve plopped your behind on were all once in the thought realm. There isn’t one thing that wasn’t birthed by the Mind. Put differently, All is Mind.

So, when it comes to the experiences you have in life, you must understand that all of them have one source: Thought. If you’re going to change anything about them, you will have to think differently and deliberately hold this new thought until it moves from an idea to a physical fact. In other words, you must have an intention about what you want to see accomplished and accept it as truth. Candle magic can help you with that. When you believe something good can work out for you, it will. If you’re convinced that no good will come of whatever you’re going through, well, don’t be shocked when things continue to go downhill.

You Don’t Have to ONLY Think Good Thoughts

I thought to make that very clear. Don’t even try because that’s a futile exercise. Sure, you should have a positive outlook on life because that will do great things for you, but don’t set a ridiculously high standard for yourself when it comes to thinking positively all the time. You’re human, after all. Every now and then, you’ll want to cuss out that rude driver that switched lanes without signaling or snap back at an annoying coworker. The point is that
