Many people have interacted with candles in their lives. Blowing out colored or white candles on their birthday cakes, buying three-wick candles to bring home so it smells like our favorite scents, or just lighting one to cozy up next to with a coffee or tea and read a good book or just to relax. They truly do bring a sense of ambiance to a space depending on what they’re being used for. Romantic dinner by candlelight anyone?

 

What if you could use those same candles to manifest things you would like in your life such as self-love, confidence,and abundance?  Would you, do it?

 

Here is a guide to candles and how to use them.

 

 

White Candles

White is known to be the absence of color. This would mean that white candles can be used as a blank canvas and can be used in the place of another candle if you do not have a specific color on hand. 
 
It is associated with cleansing, purity, peace, inner healing, protection, divine connection, and a link to the spiritual world.

Black absorbs all colors. Although through many years it has had a negative connotation associated with it, it is a very beneficial candle color to have.
 
This candle is good for absorbing negative energy, banishing unwanted or negative energy, stopping bad habits, cord cutting, helping with grief, binding, transformation, protection, and shielding from the evil eye.

 

Red Candles

Red is a bright and in-your-face color (nothing wrong with that, it’s why people say something sticks out like a sore thumb which is usually a red color).  When people think of red, they think of passion, anger, and even courage.
 
It is associated with vitality, power, love, sex, desire, ambition, and strength.

 

Orange Candles

Orange is a fun color, it stands out and draws attention to itself if it’s bright. In its darker tones, it can be almost warm and cozy.

It is associated with positive energy, obtaining positive outcomes, job success, creativity, joy, new opportunities, new beginnings, warmth, removing blocks, and opening new ways.

 

Yellow Candles

Yellow can be seen as an incredibly happy color. I like to think of sunflowers and summertime.

It is associated with focusing your mind, overcoming mental challenges, helping with communication in relationships, insight, truth-seeking, good luck, logic, learning, healing guidance, and can also be used as protection.

 

 

Green Candles

I live in the US so green for me always has a way of leaning towards finances.

 It is associated with countering jealousy, luck, balance, fertility, growth, abundance, and prosperity.

 ** Side note here: I associated green with money as our currency is green, if your currency is a different color, like red, use red for money spells. Use what makes the most sense to you. **

 

Indigo Candles

It is associated with the divine, the supernatural, gaining personal or financial independence, spirit work, spiritual protection, canceling out bad karma, exploring dreams, empowerment, transformation, justice, spirituality, and charisma.

Although it may not be the most visibly appealing color it will be a color to add to your collection as your knowledge grows.

It is associated with grounding, level-headedness, justice, animals or pets, nature spirits, stability, balance with the earth, legal matters, reliability, support, home, safety, and seriousness.

Gray may not be the happiest color, but it still has a purpose in this list.

It’s associated with the veil between worlds, spirit communication, assisting with gaining knowledge, calmness, relaxing, blocking negative influences, working in “gray areas”, invisibility, undoing prior spell work, and neutrality.

 

Gold Candles

Gold is a very beautiful and glimmering color, so it's no surprise we enjoy wearing it in the form of jewelry. 
 
It is associated with the sun, the divine masculine, attractions, prosperity, influencing others, fortune, victory, money, personal power, fame, luxury, optimism, enlightenment, life force, and confidence.

 

Silver Candles

Silver is up there with gold when it comes to things we like to adorn ourselves with. I prefer the color of silver personal.

It is associated with the moon, the divine feminine, intuition, telepathy, clairvoyance, peace, protection, dreams, glamour spells, and divination.

 

 

When it comes to choosing a color, this guide can be help figure out which may be best to use. However, you can also rely on your intuition to choose a color for what you want to manifest. Blue is associated with insomnia, but you are more drawn to using silver. Use it! Maybe it has more to do with dreams or something is trying to tell you something. I wish you the best on your learning journey.
