Create a quiet, sacred space where you can be undisturbed.
Make sure that you have enough time to sit in meditation and watch the candles as they burn. Do not leave the candles unattended and avoid having to extinguish the candles until they have burnt completely.
Clean the energy of the candles by rolling them in salt. Clean off the salt before you begin.
Take one candle for each year.
First review this year and carve into the wax any words, symbols or images that represent what you are letting go of.
Next, repeat the process on the second candle for the year ahead, marking what you are calling in.
Light the candles as described below, speaking out loud and gesturing with your hand, first this year and then the next:
I open this sacred space
(strike the match)
In honour of the north, south, east and west
(move the match in the directions as you do so)
The sun, the moon
(draw a circle first clockwise and then anti-clockwise with the match)
The planets above and the earth below
As above, so below
(move the match to the top and bottom of the candle)
As within, so without
(move the match to the front and back of the candle)
And so it is
(light the candle)
And so it is
With a soft gaze, watch the candles as they burn. Maintain focused awareness and feel deeply into your body and pay attention to any thoughts, sensations or emotions that arise within you.
What do you notice about the quality of the flame?
Is it stable or volatile?
Do the candles burn fast or slow, evenly or unevenly?
What messages or insights do they offer you?
Follow the instructions below to further interpret any messages within the flames.
Strong, Steady Flame - clear energy in flow without obstacles
Weak or Small Flame - low energy, increased clarity required
Extinguished Flame - obstacles, reevaluate desires or address timing
Flickering Flame - external influences, instability
Bright Flame - aligned goals, supportive energy
Dancing Flame - passion, intensity, need for grounding
Rapidly Burning Flame - successful manifestation in short time frame
Crackling, hissing Flames - external influences and unexpected events
Blue Flame - divine guidance and protection
Yellow Flame - strong intuition and communication
Red Flame - strong desire and emotional volatility
Blue Flame - divine guidance and protection
Clear Smoke: clear path ahead
Dark Smoke: blockages and interference
Central wax burns creating hollow tunnel with high walls - narrow perspective or limited energy flow
Uneven, burns to one side - internal or external unresolved issues. Left side feminine energies or people, right side masculine energies or people
Candle Drips or Tears - emotional release and healing
