The Spiritual Significance

Figure candles give a working a form to focus on, and a witch candle is a fitting stand-in for the practitioner's own craft: shaped as a witch, it can represent you, your power, and your resolve in a working. In red, the color of fire, it is turned to protection, vitality, and decisive action, the heat to ward a space and the nerve to act. The candle is also a characterful seasonal piece, the witch-and-pumpkin form suiting an autumn or Samhain altar. The candle focuses your own intention rather than acting on its own; light it for protection work, to back your own power and confidence, or simply to mark the season with a fitting figure on the altar.

How To Use

1. Cleanse and set up. Pass cleansing smoke over the candle and stand it on a heat-safe tray, since a figure candle pools as it burns.
2. Set your intention. Name the protection or personal power you are working, picturing your own resolve in the figure.
3. Light it and focus. Light the wick and let the candle burn while you hold your intention.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it clear of anything flammable, and use a tray, since a figure candle can pool and run.
