Candle Magick Basics
You can use any kind of candle on your altar as long as it has been cleansed and consecrated. This means removing any
negative energies. There are several ways to do this, I usually cleanse all my altar tools with sage smoke. It is a good purifier
and banishes negativity. You can also consecrate your candle with a concentrated oil that corresponds with your magickal working.
(Oils will be covered later on a whole new page). It is also important to remember that blowing a candle out is disrespectful,
so a snuffer is a must. Some people dont believe that scented candles are appropriate but I think if the scent is helpful
to your spell that they can be okay. (Apple scented candles at Mabon, for instance) I once found some candles that had a scent
of fresh cut grass and found them to be very useful for certain spells. You will work out what feels right to you and that
is what is important.
