Hello lovelies, I am once again asking you guys' opinions.
Not for me this time, but for a friend, who tried to do a candle spell for cutting people out of their life. They used two candles sharing a wick and tried to burn them apart, however the two candles melted together.
I'm really curious to see how people on here would interpret that...
Late to the party but....here goes.
This sounds like an issue with chosen materials. Two candles sharing a wick will also share a heat pool, meaning the wax will always run together when they burn, especially if the wick is comparatively short and they're within a few inches of each other.
I'd suggest your friend try again with another method. Sometimes using a different type of casting for the same purpose can get the job done. My favorite "Remove Person" spell involves writing the name on a slip of paper, stuffing it into a partially-hollowed onion, duct-taping the onion into a ball, and throwing it into a public trash bin.
If they still want to use the cord-cutting method, the candles should be farther apart, on a heatproof surface, not sharing a wick, and there should be a string or cord of organic material strung between them to symbolize the connection that's being severed. (I say organic material because acrylic or polyester yarn can melt or produce unhealthy fumes when burnt and will not produce the desired effect. For best results, use jute or cotton, always practice fire safety, and be super clear about setting those boundaries in addition to doing the spell.)
Good luck!
If you mean "interpret that" in terms of signs, to me the result means that its going to be hard to cut people out. Which, it is! You still think about them, even when you dont want to. It might also indicate that they need to pay attention to their other relationships too, to make sure there's not, like, spillover? For example, they need to take care to not focus on venting so much about the person theyre cutting out that they neglect their other relationships, and needs to take time to make sure to cultivate the good relationships in their life. Sort of a "hey, understandable if this is taking up a lot in your emotional life, but make sure to not only vent and to check in on your friends, go for a picnic or something."
