Have a candle nearby?

Tonight, before bed, light a small white candle (or just use what you have). Take a deep breath, place one hand over your heart, and say:

“I am open to receiving clear guidance. May my intuition speak, and may I recognize its voice.”

Sit with the flame for a minute or two. Notice how it moves and how you feel. Then extinguish the candle and keep a journal nearby for any dreams, nudges, or synchronicities that show up over the next few days.

It’s a simple practice, but that’s the beauty of candle magick. It doesn’t have to be elaborate to be meaningful.

Candles are one of the most common tools in a witch’s practice. We light them for rituals, spells, meditation, prayer, ancestor work, celebrations, and moments when we want to feel more connected. Yet many of us were never taught why we choose certain candles, how to prepare them, what to do with leftover wax, or how to make candle work feel intentional instead of automatic.

That’s exactly what we’ll be talking about during Ask a Witch: Candle Magick on Wednesday, August 5.

We’ll explore the foundations of candle magick, different types of candles and when to use them, preparing candles for magickal work, observing flames and wax, preserving their energy, and the practical questions that don’t always get answered in books or social media posts.

Most importantly, you’ll have the chance to ask your own questions live.

One of my favorite parts of Ask a Witch sessions is hearing the questions that come from the community. Often someone asks something you hadn’t even thought to ask yourself, and everyone leaves with a deeper understanding because of it. It’s a relaxed space to be curious, learn from one another, and build confidence in your own practice.

If candle magick has always felt a little mysterious--or if you’ve been using candles for years and want to deepen your relationship with them--I hope you’ll join us.
