Candle Choices: How to Select Shapes Forms Colours Wax Types Holders

Unread post by Angelina2 » Fri Mar 27, 2009 5:48 am

Hi all,

If I were doing a spell that required use of a purple candle. Would it matter if I use just a 6" offertory candle or a figural candle? Would it have the same effect?

Thanks.

Depends on what the aim of the spell is.

The aim of the spell is to get someone to agree with me on something.

Well yes you could use a plain offertory candle or you could use a Gentleman or Lady candle depending on the specifics of the spell.

When in doubt, and when color is important to you, go with an altar light, offertory candle, or jumbo plain color because figural candles do not come in all colors.

White candles can be substituted for any other color candle in a spell.

Really now? Can't really see crossing someone with a white candle lol. While I suppose that you could use white for most spells its very much traditional in hoodoo to use color symbolism, thus we would use red for love or lust work, black for enemy work, or as the original poster plans on use purple for controlling.

I'm sorry but personally I don't believe you can just swap a white for purple in a commanding spell.

LOL...What do you think people used prior to Hoodoo Mail Order Companies? LOL

People were doing candle magic way before the standard colored offertory candles became available.

Not only that but you are also dead wrong. Per, 'The Magic Candle by Charmaine Dey", page 26:

"White Can Be Used As A Substitute For ANY Color If What You Want Is Unavailable At The Time. So Keep Well Stocked With White Candles For Emergencies."

On top of that, the belief that one can substitue white candles when necessary is pretty widespread among practioners. I was taught this by a real-world practioner, one who harvests her own herbs, makes her oils, etc...

LOL....You mean "Hoodoo According To You" LOL

My advice. Be a student. Continue to learn. Don't act like you got it all figured out. Do what you want w/ YOUR spells, key word being 'YOUR'.

And get out into the real world and meet old time practioners. Theire way different and have skills and advice that their internet versions do not have.

Well I just want to add that yes people used to have to use white candles for everything; hoodoo is an evolving thing and the use of colored candles is basically standard.

Remember that everyone is entitled to there opinion, I happen to agree with HailDiscordia to a point. I could see using a white candle as a substitute for love,luck and protection work but for commanding work or to represent an enemy in a spell it just doesn't seem right to me.

So i believe it could be substituted in a few places but not for any color like you claim.

Yes, everyone is entitle to their opinion.

Yes, You can do anything you want to do in your spells.

"So I believe it could be substituted in a few places but not for any color like you claim."

Fine. Believe what you like. Just remember when you teach something or when you pass off advice, then you need to specify it is "Just Your Opinion" or "This is how I do it".

Don't act like something is a rule or a law or is "Traditional" when it isn't.

Peace to you. :)

I have used white canldes for all kinds of work, from love spells to death spells. The widespread use of coloured candles dates back to the publication of "A Candle to Light Your Way" (1940) by Mikhail Strabo and "The Master Book of Candle Burning (1942) by Henri Gamache. Charmaine Dey, in "The Magic Candle" (1960s) was telling the tradition truly when she said you can use a white candle for anything.

So, yes, i have used white candles. Coloured candles too. Oil lamps also -- with or without coloured lamp oil. I do like the colours, and they do help carry my ideas, but i don't rely on them exclusively.

It's like working by the Moon, and working on your period (for ladies) and working with herbs you grew versus those you bought... the more you can do to put your work ahead, the better -- but don't stop or step back from the work because you lack the means to get the "right" candle or the "right" herb.

It's about the WORK more than it is about the tools.

If God only listens when we get down on our knees to pray, then the preachers would not allow old folks with arthritis to come to church.

Think about it.

Everybody has a right to help themselves, a white candle is always acceptable -- and if you have no candle at all, and no means to obtain one, then you may call upon the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars to be the light that guides you.

I'm waiting for the herb book that catherine made....can't wait! So excited. So, I can order somethings from Lucky Mojo... I have never tried them before....tried other places. Some were good and others were bad. So, I cant wait to see how Lucky Mojo works!...

I'm trying to get some spell casting help of maybe 7-day glass candles, spells, or rituals and wondering if people from Lucky Mojo can give me some input:

1) My sister had her house broken into... she doesn't know who broke into her house. She wanted to know is there any candle advice on what to do... so that whoever broken into her house can have negativity sent on the intruders?

2) Is there any candle spells/rituals that can be done to keep a trouble maker back in prison/jail?

3) Also, my cousin is a gay man and he wants to attract good and respectable men for friends and possibly more. Have anybody tried the Lavender Love drop candle/incense or is there any good spells/rituals that you know of that had success.... in attracting men to him that will desire and respect him?

4) Is there any good candle spells/rituals that have success in winning the lottery?

5) I use to have this lady dress candles for me and she was good, but she moved...then I was doing my own and had results. But sometimes I like to try different things...and tried other candle places ...and their candles and oils were awful. Me and a few family members and friends havent saw a thing... between me and 8 people...we saw nothing. Have anyone tried Lucky Mojo 7 day glass candles, incense, or oils...can you share your success stories if possible.

Thanx for your help.

Hi, this is cat.

1) It is not common to use 7-day candles to catch out a thief. That is more of a down-home or domestic spell, done other ways. You can ask about it in anther section of the board, the "ask for Help with Sepll-casting section -- and be sure to name it with the name of the type of spell you are looking for.

2) Keeping a person in jail can be accomplished with ongoing candles, usually of Saint Peter, because he has the crossed keys. You put a key (a real key, not a picture of one), on a chain, wrap the chain around the candle, and hang the key outside the glass, with the wax. Every day you turn the key as i re-locking the lock.

3) Lavender Love was designed by me and a gay male friend of mine for exactly the kind of work you plan to do on behalf of your cousin.

4) There are hundreds of gambling spells, including 7-day candle spells. See this web page an be sure to read the one by Miss Robin:

http://luckymojo.com/gamblersluck.html

5) There is a testimonials section of this forum, and also a separate page of testimonials here:

Good luck!

YES!

I had great success with the following candles:
PEACEFUL HOME
MONEY HOUSE BLESSING
FOLLOW ME BOY
COME TO ME

When the peaceful home and house blessing candles arrived, I prayed over them and attached a photo of my household. Within a few days, my boyfriend actually exclaimed that "everything was coming up roses" for our family. I have to say that it was true. We got new furniture, began to cook and talk as a family and really bonded. To be honest, the best times of our relationship together were during this spell work.

I would like to say that it is always best to continue work that is successful, such as this, and not take it for granted. Burning one vigil candle and seeing results is a good sign that you should keep it up for long term results!

I have also had success dressing plain vigil candles with Lucky Mojo oils - fast luck, dixie love, etc.

You can use skewers to poke holes for the oils to drain into and various herbs that Cat's herb book describes. I highly recommend the herb book - you can get in paper back- as a source for information you will use every single time you are planning new work to do. It helped me tremendously when first using 7 day vigil candles and deciding what ingredients to dress it with.

I can highly recommend Lucky Mojo's roadopener candle.
It took a while, just about 3 months, but I was very blocked up (in my head mostly), and couldn't seem to move forward in the work I wanted to do.
Then everything 'cleared up' almost overnight one day.

In another thread I was told:
once you are done with the bath and/or wash water, it must be properly disposed of. Carry it out of the house and pour it on the ground at a crossroads (not down the drain). Then go home and light a candle dressed with Cast Off Evil Oil. This will bring you relief from the sin of having created crossed conditions for your enemy.
What color candle should i use? white?

Should the candle be a white vigil candle, white offertory candle, white altar light, white tea light -- or does it not matter?

Yes, a white candle is appropriate. The size and shape is not especially important, but the oil dressing is.

Clothed candles are generally for people you are not intimate with.
Nude candles are for someone you are, or want to be.

One of my friends identifies as female. However, she is physically male.
Today, I was wondering if I ever did work for or on her, could I use the clothed female figure candle in combination with an adam figural candle?

You could indeed do that -- and you might even go furether and customize the candles by joining them together with melted wax. be aware, however, that the clothed figures are about hlf the height of the naked figures. Another idea would be to take the naked Adam candle and drip wax over it to form a "dress" and female-looking breasts and hair. Be creative!

As a transgendered person myself, I would consider the intent of the spell. If it's something general (luck, money, health) I would choose the female candle. However, if you were "tying the nature" or anything that directly concerns the sexual parts I would choose the male. Just due to pure logistics, y'know. But that sort of things would probably be better accomplished through other means, like a penis candle or a bottle spell, anyway.

Alternatively, you could use a regular candle for your specific intent and carve in her chosen name, which would avoid any confusion whatsoever.

Since any magical work ultimately affects the spirit, and her spirit is female, I'd be more inclined to use female figural candles. But, as above, anything of a sexual or physical nature is better done using masculine candles. I'd agree with what Cat said, though: be creative. Do what you feel is right.

The vigil candles usually are to keep heat on the situation, or if you want some oomph to your situation. I mean you can get by just those, but most people are going to need the whole complete spell kit. On the other hand, if the candle is all you can afford at the time, then get that. Something is better than nothing.

I read a lot of variety as to what color candles to use and I see there are uses for birthday candles and votive candles. Can you use birthday candles to work your mojo bag with the appropriate color candle? Does the size or kind of candle one uses?

im sure you can my only thought is will it burn long enough for you to focus, concentrate and do the work.. bday candles from my experience on birthday cakes is they burn out rather fast. And i normally take more then 3 mins on a mojo lol. I think the size and kind matters to the work you are doing and how long you plan on doing it. a love drawing spell with bday candles might not be a great venture, a quick sex candle might work well with a bday candle but the nature of its fast ( quick) burn. some spells call for candles shaped in objects others for novea candles it really depends. I tend not to use votive candles though as they are too short and stuby and make a mess when they burn.. thats my two cents lol.

With the exception of the red/black reversing -- which is black over red -- the other candles are made of dyed wax and colored throughout. They burn very nicely; I especially like the 4" candles. They burn for around 90 minutes, which (for me) is perfect for an intensely focused session of working. I also use them for "helper" candles around my larger candles.

Thats what I was thinking, it just seems right :) But got a little confused coz on the AIRR website it states that "they are generally used when the hoodoo doctor wants to help a client by separating people or by bringing people together," which I interpreted as maybe a newbie like myself was better off not trying them.

Also, I found a Reconciliaton honey jar spell w/ moving Adam & Eve candles which sounded pretty good and gave me the moving candle idea... What do u think of it?

Do u think one can modify it to where u can write a third petition to put inside the jar eg. "(name) is the one for you" or "you are really in love with (name)"... just so that it can be an ongoing jar even after the reconciliation + since the 'letter to God' is written a 'future' present tense and always kept under the honey jar. And if so, what do I do with the other 2 petitions that were under the Adam & Eve candles?

Thanks again, ur are always there to help :) I am loving being on this forum... its addictive :)

The AIRR site is correct, and reconciliation is a form of bringing people together again. So would be appropriate to move two candles together in this case.

Yes you can put the petition in the honey jar. And you need to bury the remains of the candle in your yard, or if you do not have a yard bury them in a potted plant kept near your door. It is important to keep the plant alive.

Oh! ok, so I will write out a third petition to put inside the jar and take the remains of the Adam & Eve reconciliation candles plus their petitions and bury them in a potted plant by my front door :)

Thank you so much, starsinthesky7!

Hi, I'm planning on getting another Vigil candle, for the purpose of love, but what I am wondering, what candle would work the best to attract someone that is suitable for you, and has the qualities I want? I know attraction attracts many people, so I want to narrow it down, to attract someone who is "right" for me so to speak? Thanks.

You could use an adam and eve candle or add some adam and eve oil for finding your mate that is great for you to a come to me candle. I really like both.

I recommend the Chuparrosa Vigil Candle. It will bring to you an honest love relationship.

LM does sell it. I lit one last Feburary and petitioned for love. A month later I met an awesome great wonderful man. On March 19th we will celebrate our one year anniversary.

Wish you the best in your quest!

Thanks Stars --

I should add that I strongly charged the candle, lit it on a Friday, and heavily prayed every day with petition of what I wanted in a man.

I tried making candle holders with tin foil-- a suggestion from the LM store. It didn't work that great because it was hard to keep them flat and the candles fell over a lot. :( Now before I would do a spell I would be much more careful that I had everything ready. I didn't even have an incense burner! My star was pitiful too.

when you are using a love me spell, should you keep the candle burning from all throughout the spell till it is finished?Or should the candle only be lit during meditation?

If you are lighting a vigil light aka a glass encased candle, then you can burn it all the way through, and never putting it out. You can say your prayer or do your meditation once a day. If you cannot keep it burning continuously, then I usually say the prayer, and keep the candle burning as long as I can . If you are doing a more complicated spell, most people burn them in portions. So say your prayer or petition, and let the candle burn for about 10 to 15 minutes, then put it out.

I light the vigil candle or an oil lamp (such as a kerosene lamp dressed with oils and filled with curios) and then i set up my moving candles. I burn the moving candles in sections and in between sessions of burning them and moving them, i keep the oil lamp light to back up the work. On the Stay With Me details page, the second sepll described, towrd the bottom, is a sample of such a spell:

http://luckymojo.com/staywithme.html

In this case it is a Stay With Me spell and a Break Up spell combined into one spell with a love lamp, but the idea can be used with any moving candle spell, and a vigil light can be used instead of the oil lamp.

Good luck.

4" altar lights are a convenient size to use for spells where you want to finish up before going to work or such, but don't want to feel rushed, the way you would with a birthday candle. To burn in sections over several days, a 6" offertory candle or a 9" jumbo candle is better.

These books contain many, many spells using 4", 6", 9", Double Action, Tea Light, Votive, and Vigil Candles, as well as Oil Lamps:
