Candles and Intentions

Use this area as a reference for your Prayer Intentions, Associated Chakras and Magickal associations by candle color. For better results of your intentions, read through the Magick and the Moon page.

It is ok to use more than one candle at a time. If you use multiple candles, remember to light them in a clockwise (left to right) pattern for good energy flow. When snuffing them (if needed) do in a counter clockwise (right to left) pattern to release.
