A Candle Burning Ritual

A Candle Burning Ritual
A BASIC CANDLE BURNING RITUAL

From: Doreen Valiente's Natural Magic

Best: Do last thing at night then go to bed with the thought that the ritual

will succeed. Select a candle of an appropriate colour. The candle should be new

and never used for any other purpose.

Anoint the candle to impress your thoughts on it and to consecrate it to your

purpose.

Before starting get clear on what you wish, then write your wish on new paper.

Put this paper under the candle holder.

Lower or turn off other lights. Rub the anointing oil on your fingers and gently

rub it onto the candle.

Light the candle and sit in quiet concentration upon your wish. Above all

visualize the thing you want.

Use the burning candle as a focus of concentration.

When you feel that you have concentrated for long enough take the paper and burn

it in the flame of the candle, with the thought that you are now projecting your

wish into the beyond to find fulfilment.

Say this invocation.....

Invocation:

Candle shining in the night

With your flame enchanted,

By the powers of magic might

May my wish be granted.

When the candle sheds its gleam

At the mystic hour,

Let fulfilment of my dream

Gather secret power.

Flame of magic, brightly burn,

Spirit of the fire.

Let the wheel of fortune turn,

Grant me my desire.

One, two, three - so mote it be!

Allow the candle to burn itself out.
