| The Languages of Candles |
| A Candle is composed of Elements: Earth, Water, Air, Fire and Spirit! These are all added by visualization of positive light and all elements are then present in one solid mold.. the CANDLE! Visualization is the power of will that we give the candle's specific energies in accordance to what our desires are. Many say that the Aura or Halo that comes from the flame is divinity itself, achieved by the person casting the spell or rite ... view on spiritual level. The flames of the candle houses a living salamander, the element of fire. This represents the soul, the spirit transcendence of its own divinity, the unlit wick of growth or enlightenment. Its reality is that of our need for fire in which to sustain us on this plane, Mother Earth.

| "Touch a light to the little wick, Watch it burn to the candlestick. Study with care the little blaze; Fortunes are told in its tiny rays. If an unseen power makes it weak and low, For you it foretells a tale of woe. If that same power makes a blaze bright and healthy, You'll be happy and wise, be good and wealthy." |
