When it comes to candles there is much to say. They connect us with our senses, affect moods, change the environments or purify objects, depend on their purpose when they are created and on intention when they are lit. So today we will discover how long it takes to take effect with candles and how we can accelerate the process.

How long does the magic of candles take effect?

Depends. The candles are used for many different spells and rituals, and the moment differs according to each use.

When we launch a spell with candles, its energy flow and its properties normally manifest in 1-2 weeks. Of course, it depends on the directions of the spells, but in general, that is the deadline. Suppose you throw a love spell with candles and the instructions tell you that it takes 14 days to manifest, so you must be patient and wait.

Before continuing

What can you do with candles so that things manifest faster?

I usually get carried away by my intuition, but I often keep the candles in a safe place while I wait for the spell to manifest. Suppose I make a spell that makes me feel comfortable and I feel that energy finally manifests. In that case, I will turn on the same candle that I used for the spell previously, 7 days after launching the initial spell and again 14 days after the first launch.

If it is a black spell magic, I usually avoid turning on the candle, because I prefer to remove and discard the remains of the candle and the other ingredients. It helps me forget the practice and focus again on positive energy. But, follow your instincts and you will not fail.

Cleaning candles: Instant effect

The candles are amazing for cleaning. We can use a white or a black candle when we feel that the energy that surrounds us is heavy and we feel a bit off. If you want to purify a space like your home, your workplace or other place you spend a lot of time, then when you turn on a candle, you will have instant results since it attracts all negativity and transforms energy into positive.

Therefore, lighting a candle can make you feel better immediately.

Of course, to enhance the effect, keep it on for a while is a great option to enjoy its beneficial long -term effects.

Candles for Saturday: 2-3 weeks

I love to perform sabbatical and seasonal rituals, since they help me tune in with changing energy from nature, sun and moon.

When I do, I usually keep the candles I use for Sabbat when I honor a station or mother nature and I love using them in long -lasting rituals to really attract the energy I need to face a new stage. So I turn them on every day until your flame consumes them completely.

My advice is to use, a minimum of at least 5-7 candles when performing the Sabbath ritual and turning them on again, one in one, so that they cover all the time I need to attract any energy without using a new candle.

Candle for lunar rituals: 3 days

I love acting full moon/new moon rituals and I really feel a great change of energy in 3 days when doing them.

I usually use a white candle for these rituals and use the flame to burn my intention or forgiveness list (depending on the type of lunar phase), after that I keep the candle on up to 3 days since the lunar phases usually lasts 3 days at its peak.

I put the candle on one side and use it for another ritual later, but I make sure to use the candle only for lunar rituals.

Here are some tips to work spiritually with candles

1. When a candle for a ritual, get away from the distractions, spend time, because the flame that lights will connect with your body spiritually. It is a subtle energy that deserves time, space, care and attention. Take the candle in your hands and connect to turn it on. Hold it, breathe deeply, relax your body, mind and emotion, before turning it on.
2. The clearer you have your mind, the faster you will connect with the light. It is better to light a candle daily for 30 minutes than to do it only once and with a hurry. You can work the same candle for one, two or three lunar cycles, specifying its use and maintaining its purpose. If you do not get to the third month, it is time to release it and put your intention in something else.
3. Avoid using red candles when working with sick people, since red can worsen a condition, it is better to work with violet or light blue candles.
4. Always have white candles, they can be used for many different intentions.
5. Thanks to each candle every time you turn it off and thank yourself for allowing you to connect with your inner light.
6. The decorative candles are for that, to beautify the environment, enjoy their purpose when created, and do not try to change them for candles of magical intention because you, you will not find favorable results since they lack any intention during the creation ritual.
