Colours & Candles

"The candles you use for any type of magickal use should be unused. There is a good reason for not using anything but new virgin materials in magick, vibrations picked up by using secondhand materials or equipment may disturb your workings and impair their effectiveness. Candles used in magickal rituals need to burn down, even if it takes all night. Incidentally, candles should be lit with matches, because they are made from the natural element of wood, rather than with a lighter, which contains petrol pollutants. Colour contains an important part of magick making and each colour has its own magickal meaning."
