7 Inch Purple Taper Candles, Set of 2

Purple is the color the old traditions reserved for the crown of things: royalty, mastery, and the reach toward spirit. In color magic it belongs to psychic work, intuition, and connection to the higher realms, the deep end of the practice. This pair of seven-inch purple tapers gives you two clean-burning candles for that kind of working.

Tapers are the classic ritual candle, a steady upright flame for focused sittings. Burn one for a single working or both together when you want the pair, and let the purple color hold your intention toward spirit and insight.

The Spiritual Significance

Purple has carried meanings of royalty and mastery since the dye was so costly only rulers wore it, and color magic keeps that sense of the heights: purple is the color of spiritual power, psychic ability, and the reach toward the higher realms. It is tied to the crown center in the chakra-color scheme, the seat of connection to spirit, and is often chosen for divination, meditation, psychic development, and any working that aims past the everyday. Where blue cools and calms, purple deepens and lifts, turning attention inward and upward. The associations are a shared symbolic language rather than a fixed rule. Burned as a plain taper, purple gives intuitive and spiritual work a clear, single-colored focus, a steady flame to sit beside while you meditate, divine, or pray.

How To Use

1. Cleanse and set up. Pass cleansing smoke over a taper and seat it firmly in a holder on a heat-safe surface.
2. Set your intention. Name the psychic or spiritual aim you are working toward, and dress the candle with a little oil if you like.
3. Light it and work. Light the wick and let it burn through your meditation, divination, or prayer; burn one taper or both as your working asks.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it clear of anything flammable, and snuff it or let it finish in a safe spot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are purple candles used for?

In color magic purple is the color of spiritual power, psychic ability, and intuition. These tapers are burned for divination, meditation, psychic development, and any working that reaches toward the higher realms or the crown center.

How many candles come in the set?

Two seven-inch taper candles, about three-quarters of an inch at the base, made in the USA. Burn one for a single working or both together, and expect roughly an inch of burn per hour.

Do I need a special holder?

Yes. Tapers are slim and need a taper holder to stand securely. Seat each candle firmly on a heat-safe surface before lighting so it burns upright and stable.

Are these candles scented?

No. They are plain, unscented purple tapers, so nothing competes with your focus. That makes them easy to dress with whatever oil or herbs your psychic or spiritual working calls for.

How do I burn them safely?

Seat each taper firmly in a heat-safe holder away from anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Snuff it rather than blowing it out if you mean to relight, or let it finish in a safe spot.
