Setting an intention with your candle:
On a symbolic level, a candle embodies the five natural elements: earth, water, air, fire and spirit. The wick and base signify earth and are essential in grounding the flame to the base. The wax, which transforms from a solid to a liquid and then to a gas, emulates properties of the water element. Oxygen, representative of air, is crucial for both keeping the flame lit and extinguishing it. Then there’s the flame, which is a direct connection to fire—the element of transformation and rebirth. Fire also represents passion and willpower. And lastly, the fifth element, spirit, which is us when we focus our intention into the candle and infuse it with our soul and energy.
At the same time, it’s important to understand that while powerful, the practice of burning candles with intention is by no means a quick fix for life’s challenges. As with all forms of magic and ritual, you only get as far as the work you’re willing to put into making things happen for yourself. Whatever magical ceremony or ritual you decide to perform is simply the messenger whose purpose is to deliver your goals into the arms of the universe—nothing more. So before you partake in any manifestation practice—be certain you’re not setting an intention you aren’t ready to work toward and that you aren’t broadcasting any energy you don’t want to receive in return. In other words, be careful - you may get exactly what you’re asking for!
Its always a good to cleanse and clear your space, before lighting your intention candle.
A SIMPLE CANDLE RITUAL:
1. Start by clearing your space and your energy. This can look a lot of different ways: something as simple as taking a shower or bath, using powerful tools such as a botanical wand with herbs for smoke cleansing and grounding, or waving a selenite wand above your head and across your body. — See my Etsy listings for various different tools to help with this!
2. Prepare your space for your candle. Ensure it is a heat-safe surface. You can bring other elements to the space around your candle that are symbolic reminders of your intentions. Some ideas include: herbs, pictures, gemstones, fresh flowers, something you’ve written, a collage you’ve created, etc.
3. Begin by taking a deep breath. Inhale through your nose and out of your mouth. Take a second deep breath, this time visualize your goals and what you’re welcoming into your life. What does it look like? What does it feel like? How does it feel when you’ve “reached” your goal(s)?
4. Once you’ve captured that feeling and have visualized your intention you can either say it out loud and/or write it down on a piece of paper.
5. If you’ve written it down, fold your paper and place it under your candle.
6. As you light your candle, send all of that energy into the candle. Once its lit, stare at the flame and continue to send your energy into the light. Do this for as long as it feels right.
7. When you’re ready, close your intention ritual with words of gratitude (you can either say them allowed or to yourself). You can say something like, “In gratitude, I close this sacred ritual and open myself to manifesting all that’s for my highest good, and for the good of all.”
8. Let the candle burn for as long as you like. Never leave it unattended.
9. Once the candle has completely burned, remove the gemstones that have now been charged with your intention. Put them in a sacred space you see regularly, to keep the energy going that you’ve welcomed into your life.
CANDLE CARE:
Ensure wick is about to ¼” before lighting.
Allow the melted wax pool to reach the side of the jars before extinguishing for a longer burning candle and to prevent tunneling.
Keep wick centered and free of any foreign materials including matches and wick trimmings.
Only burn on a level, fire resistant surface. Avoid drafts.
Never leave your candle burning unattended and keep out of reach of children and pets.
Candle jar may become hot after burning. Allow wax to harden before handling.
