At the close of your ritual you may blow out the flames (in reverse order to that of lighting) or you can put them out with a candle snuffer. NEVER PINCH THEM OUT WITH YOUR FINGERS. Why does the CANDLE FLAME CRACKLE? It is also possible that the candle flame may jump or crackle during a spell. If you are summoning entities, the flame may grow to as much as six inches in height when they manifest, or make a crackling, popping sound. In regular candle spells a crackling, jumping flame generally implies that a lot of energy is being generated due to high emotions or the effects of the spell. It is generally a good sign that the magic is working. Note which candle in the altar setup is crackling and go on with the ritual. Why does the CANDLE FLAME look like a Rainbow? If your flame is composed of various colors, the elemental is communicating with respect to the colour codes. Meaning that the energies are so strong that the corresponding colour on the spectrum is manifesting in the Salamander (the flame). NEVER use MATCHES...THEY ARE TABOO. Why? They are tipped with phosphorous and sulphur (Brimstone), elements which release noxious fumes when ignited, are used in the Black Arts to invoke demonic entities. Striking matches to light candles which have been blessed and charged would therefore seem hopeless. Why is the CANDLE FLAME STRONG or WEAK? A particularly strong flame means that power is being generated toward manifesting your intent. If a candle used to represent a person is particularly strong it can imply their dominance in the situation, their higher energy level, they are winning the situation, or anger and strong emotions on their part. A particularly weak flame shows that there is strong opposition to the manifestation of your intent and the spell may need to be repeated. If a persons candle is weak it may mean that they are in a submissive position in the situation, that they are losing, they have a lower energy level, or that they are in a weaker emotional position. Why is the CANDLE FLAME JUMPING? This can indicate explosions or bursts of energy being transmitted. Raw emotions or chaotic energies could be at work. An argument could be taking place or a heated discussion
