Candles have been used for more natural lighting in ritual work as well
as focal points and concentration aids for centuries. Each different
color has a different meaning for both internal and external uses.
Burning candles is a very old magical art.
Celtic priests and priestesses used tallow lamps or rushes, also bondiews, Candles are
cleaner and easier today for the Solitary Practitioner. There is one basic major rule in candle
burning: For removing or reversing a spell, burn during the waning moon. It is better when using Candle Magick, to
put the candle in a safe place and allow it to burn out completely. Candles can be hand made, but I usually just purchase mine. You can find
them for sale in many local occult shops or, even easier - on-line. You will
find several sources from my Links Page.

Candle Magick for Scrying
For casting a spell that is to obtain or profit something, burn during the waxing moon.
The New Moon is the strongest time of power for the waning moon. The Full moon is the
strongest time of power for the Waxing Moon.
Candle magick is perhaps the simplest, most effective form of magick.
The act of anointing, lighting and burning really gets the practitioner
into the mood, and thus atunes himself to the magickal act being perfomed.
As always, think before you perform any rite or ritual. Your mind set
when casting will mean the difference between success or failure. These
are only suggestions, as always, you can alter them to meet your specific
needs.
Note: If you use your creativity and think a little, altering the
above spell will bring success in any number of undertakings. If you want
money, use symbols that mean "money" to you. Spell casting should be fun and
it should ue your creative forces. Don't be afraid that it won't work.
Remember: magick comes from inside.
Scrying is a term used to mean "divining" or "seeing into the
furture". You would use this spell as you read the Tarot, or cast the Runes
or whatever your tool is. This spell should ease your journey.
