Chakra Chime Candles, Set of 20, 5"

These twenty chime candles come in the seven colors of the chakras, the energy centers of the subtle body: red, orange, and yellow for the lower centers, green at the heart, and dark blue, purple, and white for the upper ones. Light the color that matches the center you are working with, in meditation or energy practice.

Chime candles, sometimes called spell candles, are small and quick-burning, sized for one focused intention and meant to burn down in a sitting. Color-coded to the chakras, this set is made for energy and meditation work, center by center.

The Spiritual Significance

A chime candle, also called a spell or ritual candle, is a small, quick-burning candle made for a single working. You pick a color, light it, and let it burn down in one sitting; the short burn suits a focused session rather than a long devotion. Candle magic itself is old and nearly universal, the simple act of carrying a wish or a focus on a flame, while the color associations most practitioners use today were gathered and standardized more recently.

The seven-center chakra model comes from the yogic and tantric traditions of India, with the familiar rainbow color-coding being a more modern Western arrangement of those older ideas. In that scheme red sits at the root, orange at the sacral, yellow at the solar plexus, green at the heart, blue at the throat, indigo at the third eye, and violet or white at the crown. Lighting the matching color gives a meditation or energy session a simple visual focus, a way to bring attention to one center at a time. The candles are a focus for that inner attention, not a treatment for the body.

How To Use

1. Choose the chakra color and set up. Pick the color for the center you are working with, pass it through cleansing smoke or moonlight, and stand it in a heatproof holder on a clear, non-flammable surface.
2. Settle and light. Light the wick, settle into your meditation, and let the color hold your attention on that center.
3. Focus center by center. Work one center at a time, or move up through the colors from root to crown across a session.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it away from anything that can catch, and let it burn down or snuff it to continue later.
