Not every witch has the means to collect tons of exotic ingredients. Sometimes, all you have is a candle and a wish. So, I have put together 10 small candle spells. (The types of candles I am talking about are tea lights or small, tapered little fellas. Relatively cheap and easy to use!) Hope this becomes a resource for you all! Let’s get started! <3 Salt
Write down what it is you wish to protect, be it your home, your family, yourself, etc.
Chant the following ten times:
By the time this black candle has waned,
the blessing of protection be gained
by all that fall beneath its wax
be safely guarded from attack.
Until the next waxing moon appears,
protect all that I have written here.
Allow the candle to burn completely down and the wax to spread across the paper.
Fold it and keep it until the next waxing moon.
Repeat as often as needed.
WHITE CANDLE: Spirit Communication
Photo of the Person you wish to speak to
Before bed, light the white candle and focus on the flame. Let’s its warmth ignite the love you feel for the person you wish to communicate with.
Say their name allowed. Speak of the memories you have with them. Let the memory of them come to life in your mind.
When you are ready, recite the following spell:
Before I rest my head for the night,
I ask that my heart’s call to you,
(say their name), be answered.
In dreams, let us be together again
and share the embrace of love.
I await your visit
and, for it, you have my deepest thanks.
Blow out the candle and visualize their face in your mind’s eye.
Once the wax has cooled, place it and the picture together near your bed. You are free to sleep. Enjoy the visit!
Piece of paper (cut into a heart shape)
On the heart paper, write down the positive aspects and assets you have. It can be anything (from pretty eyes to being compassionate.) Fill up the paper and fold it into a half heart.
Hold it in your hands and shut your eyes. Deeply breathe, and focus on your pulse and the things you wrote. Focus on yourself.
Recite the following incantation:
I am who I am
flawed, challenging, human
I am who I am
soulful, in communion with the universe
I am who I will be
ever-changing and growing
And I bow to the purpose that resides in me.
Light the heart paper on fire, allow it to turn to ash, and blow out the candle.
Anoint your forehead and the center of your chest with hearts made of ash. Meditate on the self and what your purpose might me.
Anytime you feel the need to revisit self-love, use the ashes and light the candle again.
PURPLE CANDLE: Accessing Gifts and Talents
On the night of the New Moon, sit in a quiet, dark room. Light your candle and concentrate on expelling all the static energy from your mind.
Focus on your the gifts you would like to explore. An example? If you are drawn to Tarot, have your deck nearby and envision yourself shuffling the cards.
Repeat the following chant 13 times:
My mind is clear, my heart is too
Reveal my gifts, deep and true
Open your eyes and stare into the flame. Let the fire of inspiration illuminate the talent you want to access.
Invoke the gift by whispering:
On this night, and all nights to come,
I will open myself to this ancient power
and allow discovery of my true potential.
Blow out the candle and keep by your bedside. When you practice a gift or talent, light it until there is no more wax.
ORANGE CANDLE: Calling Your Inner Child
Divinatory Tool (Suggest: Tarot or Oracle cards)
Light the orange candle and begin shuffling your cards.
When you feel that you have shuffled enough, hold the cards in your hand and focus on the flames.
Bring future to past
with this candle’s light
and provide for me
childish insight.
One card to tell me of my woes,
another about the child within,
a third cast to bring us together
so that we may begin again.
Draw three cards. The first will represent your position right now (who you are and what you have been going through); the second will represent your inner child and what insights they can provide through their innocence. The third and final card will show you what will happen if you allow the present you and your inner child join together.
Light the candle whenever you need guidance from your inner child again.
LIGHT BLUE CANDLE: Fortune and Glory
Money (coins or paper money)
An Award or piece of Recognition (trophy, certificate, etc.)
Anytime on a Sunday (the day where workings for wealth, achievement, goals, and promotions correspond), place your candle between your representations of fortune and glory.
Put one hand on each item, and say:
I humbly ask for the Universe and all the powers within it to look upon these representations of fortune and glory. I light this candle to honor you and ask for the following blessings…
Light your candle and return your hands to rest on your items. Recite:
By the light of this flame,
sweet fortune I do claim.
Wealth and wisdom I do gain.
By warmth of this flame,
glory granted to my name.
Recognition I do gain.
Allow the candle to burn until there is no more wax. Collect what is left, store in a jar, and keep in a place you conduct business.

Here and now, I call the element of Air. Summer breeze and roaring wind, echoing melody and lifting wings, ever-dancing. I call you forth to infuse my intention with your swirling fits of both song and silence. Carry my will on your back and raise my purpose into your sky. Breath and cloud, sound and song.
