Last week, I wrote a blog post on positive signs that your candle burning spell was going good. This is the continuation of a series regarding candle spells.

This is a listing of some of the negative signs to look for when burning candles for spell work.

The Candle does not burn/goes out: This could mean that the candle was not properly cleaned or blessed. It is also a sign of heavy negative vibrations that you are working against. You can re-light this candle and bolster it with an additional white candle with “Blessing” Anointing or Condition oil on it. In some traditions, re-lighting a candle is not permitted. You will then need to get a new candle and start over. If you are trying to dominate or overcome another, the candle going out might mean that this is not the proper spell to use in the situation. If this is for prosperity or monetary gain, then another type of spiritual cleaning (house or personal) is needed before success in this area.

The Candle glass cracks: If this is for personal safety and protection, then a cracked glass means that the negative vibes sent your way has been broken. Once this happens, do a whole house spiritual cleaning with Chinese Wash and smudge before doing positive candle work to bring in ‘good things’. If this candle was used to control another’s action, then you have successfully ‘broken’ their Will and they will be more compliant with you.

The Candle burns only on one side: This means that something was not done correctly in the ‘charging’ and ‘blessing’ of the candle. The candle spell needs to be reconstructed as you will only achieve a 50% success rate on this candle spell.

The Candle flame is very low/almost non-existent: If this candle is for protection, there is strong resistance to your protection and someone may be trying to do work against you. If this is for Good Luck or Money Drawing, you need to spiritually ‘deep clean’ your home. If you are trying to dominate or send negativity to someone, it means that the candle spell is not strong enough and you should re-think and try another candle spell.

The Candle glass explodes: If you are trying to control or wish someone harm and the candle glass breaks, it means that the other person is being protected and you will not be successful with this type of candle spell. If it is for protection for you, it means that the candle ‘blocked’ the negativity that someone is sending to you. If it is a reversible candle (meaning sending something back to another or reversing something to an original state), a exploding candle with full glass breakage means a lot of negativity

The Candle glass burns the top half of the glass black: If the top of the glass is the only part that is black or sooty, then your candle spell was initially facing a lot of negativity, but it overpowered the negative vibes and is now working for you in a postive way.

The Candle glass burns the bottom of the glass black: If the candle was burning clean and clear at the beginning of the candle spell and then it turned black or sooty towards the last one half or one quarter of the candle, then your spell was ‘found out’ by someone and efforts were implemented to thwart your progress. Your candle is now facing heavy opposition and you will need to ‘back it up’ with a white candle with “Blessing” oil to stabilize it. Eventually, you will need to re-do the candle spell.

The Candle burns the complete inside of the glass black: If the glass is completely or in a consistent manner, and can be considered sooty or black more than 80% through the whole candle burn, then it means that there are people and things that are after you. This is a sign of very negative witchcraft or a person has really got it out for you. A deep cleaning of your home and surroundings is first and foremost, by many different methods (water, salt, candles, incense or smoke smudging, plus others), before you can begin this candle spell again. If this spell was for you to control, dominate or send back something to another, you will probably not be successful in your candle spell, unless circumstances change and you have an alternate method to do spell work on them. They are heavily protected.

The Candle flame went out during the burn: If this candle spell was for protection, you may not have prepared the candle right (either by cleansing, blessing or your petition paper). You will need to re-do the candle spell as negative vibes are being sent your way to stop you in trying to protect yourself. If you were burning this candle for action towards someone else, it was detected and candles were burned to keep your influence from reaching them.

The Candle appears to go out, then relights itself: This indicates that while negative forces are attempting to stop your candle spell work, your petition is justified and it is ‘fighting’ back to stay lit.

I get quite a few calls about positive signs in candle burning for a candle spell and I thought it might be beneficial that I combine them in one article for you to browse and compare your candle as to there it is going or how it is ‘acting’ while your candle burns. Here are some common signs to look for in a positive candle burn.

SIGNS OF A POSITIVE CANDLE SPELL/CANDLE BURNING:

The Candle has a high flame: This is a sign that the spell is going well and is being effective for your petition and for your cause. If this is for money, prosperity or for protection from negative people and/or evil, a high flame means that it is ‘chasing’ or sending this away from you. If you are using a harmful, domination or revenge-type candle, a high flame means that you will see results quickly as they don’t have adequate or no spiritual protection.

The Candle burns top half of Glass black but clears up: When you first started your candle spell, the top of the candle was black, dark gray or ‘smudgy’, meaning that particulates burned and clung to the inside of the glass. This means that at the beginning of the spell, negative things were around you initially,but they have since burned off and your candle spell is working in a positive manner for you.

The entire top of the Candle (liquid wax, including wick) is on fire: In the spiritual sense, it means that you are completely justified in your work and additional spiritual ‘guides’ have arrived to help in your situation. This is ONLY if you have used the proper amount of Anointing, Condition or Spiritual Oil in the candle. IF YOU ADDED MORE OIL THAN PRESCRIBED: You have a mix that you should monitor closely as it may start a fire. This is especially if you use some oil products that use Diethyl Phalates. Go to the category column on the right and click on Anointing,Condition and Spiritual Oils A – Z to read the article, “Free Candle Spells | Cancer and Fire Causing Condition/Anointing Oils“

The Candle burns on one side,leaving half a candle untouched: This means that something was not done correctly in the ‘charging’ and ‘blessing’ of the candle. The candle spell needs to be reconstructed as you will only achieve a 50% success rate on this candle spell.

The Candle flame ‘crackles’ or ‘speaks’: If your candle ‘pops’, ‘cackles’ or otherwise makes noises while it is burning, it means that there is ‘spiritual conversation’ between your Guardian Angel and the other persons’ Angel. The loudness of the ‘pop’, the more intense the ‘spiritual conversation’ they are having. If it is for protection from someone, then your Guardian Angel is ‘fighting’ for your defnese. If it is for prosperity or success, then it will come ‘with a bang’, meaning quick and intense will your change in luck for the better.

The Candle flame flickers or moves about rapidly: This means that there is ‘quick action’ being taken for your candle spell.

The 7 – Day Candle burns out before 7 days are up: This means that the candle is working rapidly towards your cause and another needs to be lit to keep the momentum going

The New Moon in Scorpio occurs on Monday, November 16, 2009 at 2:15 p.m. E.S.T. This lunation in the “Fixed” Water sign of Scorpio, means that it is emotional, unchangeable and stable. The energy of this New Moon is about transformation, metamorphosis and change. What is it about yourself or your surroundings that you want to change?

This is the time to consider finite changes and adjustments to candle burning spells for thwarting your enemy in THEIR plans to get you. This is a very secretive time where you do not want to make any hasty plans for your candle spell. Remember the most glorious battles were calculated for months prior to the actual event so that they could cover any unforeseen situations.

Since Scorpio is ruled by the planet Pluto, burning purple candles for psychic enhancement would be optimum at this time. Make sure you clean your candles accordingly and to put an extra ‘oomph’ to your candle burning, make sure you add “Psychic Vision” Anointing Condition Spiritual Oil or “Oil of Pluto” to your candle.

The next Full Moon will occur on December 2, 2009
