Candle Magic Love Spells

Preparing/dressing the candle in preparation for a love spell:

Candle burning is one of the simplest forms of magic, one that anyone can perform no matter what their religious beliefs may be. All that is needed for the simplest rite is a white candle, an ordinary household one will do, a suitable candleholder, matches and your favourite essential oil such as lavender or rose.

You need only a little of the latter, just enough to moisten the forefinger and thumb. Starting at the base of the candle, run your fingers gently and smoothly up its length whilst concentrating on the objective of your ritual; some people find it helpful to close their eyes and visualise the desired end result. After remoistening your fingers if necessary, turn the candle 90 degrees and repeat the process so that the whole candle has been anointed; caress the candle, do not apply too much pressure or oil or you may end up with a warped candle and spluttering flame.

The idea behind 'dressing' the candle in this way while thinking of the desired aim is to forge a psychic link between you and the candle through the physical senses of touch and smell. Next place the candle securely in its holder and light the wick. Make this a conscious gesture, do not just do it automatically. The lighting should be a deliberate, symbolic act to signal your intent.

To add extra power to you love spell perform it on a Friday using a candle in colours governed by Venus.

Venus (Friday): light to mid blues, greens and pinks.
Refers to love, marriage and courtship, co-operation, harmony, growth, development, fruitfulness, beauty and pleasure.
Thus it correlates to the affections, unity, personal and business partnerships, female sexuality and attraction, adornment, fashion, public relations, society, leisure and recreation, dance and music, aesthetic appreciation, material comfort, possessions, personal income and earnings.

There are three magical principles at work during a love spell: concentration, visualization and will power. The simple act of preparing candle means before you even start you are already linking with the element of fire and all its power.
