The Spiritual Significance

Household candles are the workhorses of candle magic: plain straight candles, burned for offerings, daily devotions, and the many small workings that call for a fresh candle each time. Brown belongs to the element of earth and is the candle color of grounding, stability, and balance. Practitioners reach for brown to settle unsettled energy, steady a restless season, support the home and hearth, and root a working in something solid. The shorter four-inch size burns down quickly, which suits a single sitting's working, and a box of seventy-two means you can light one whenever the day calls for grounding. Candle magic itself is ancient and nearly universal, the simple act of carrying an intention on a flame.

How To Use

1. Cleanse and set up. Pass cleansing smoke over a candle and seat it in a holder on a heat-safe surface.
2. Set your intention. Name the grounding, stability, or balance you are working toward.
3. Light it and focus. Light the wick, picture your footing steadying, and let the candle burn down for the working.
4. Burn it safely. Never leave a burning candle unattended, keep it clear of anything flammable, and use a proper holder, since a household candle burns down fully.
