Candle magic was one of the first things that I learned years back. I use them when sending energies and rituals, to pay respect to the Gods.Each color is used for different purposes.
The Colors...
White White candles can be used for any work of meditation or magick. They can be used in place of every other color except black. They symbolize positive energy and good will.
Yellow Yellow is an expanding wave length. Use for the bringing about of desired results, for expanding and stimulating ritual purpose, specifically attraction and persuasion.
Orange Orange is again a stimulating color. Use for attraction of people or objects and to obtain desired results.
Gold Gold is for the attraction of wealth. Best used for drawing money, prosperity, and success.
Pink Pink candles are the gentle love candles. Use them for returning a lost love, bringing in a new love, releasing depression, and increasing friendship.
Red Red is a powerful energy candle. Use it for strength, emotional stimulation, generating power, sexual stimulation and love.
Green Green is the color of growth. Use green to promote health, finances, good luck, fertility; any goal requiring balance and renewal.
Brown The Earth candle. Use brown to ground. Use to create stability, security, or conversely, use brown to create instability and indecision.
Blue Blue is serenity, peace, and tranquillity. Use blue for creative expression, understanding, and patience.
Dark Blue This is the psychic candle. Use dark blue for wisdom and self-awareness. Use for protection, causing change, and building psychic abilities.
Purple Cosmic candle. Use purple for power, ambition, spiritual development, power over others, to connect with cosmic consciousness.
Black Black is the absence of all color, therefore the candle of negative power. Use to release all negative energies, to return negative energy, to absorb negative energies and to direct them.
