Meaning & history
Candle magic has long used color as a shorthand for intention. Green is traditionally reached for when working with manifestation and abundance, red for passion and energy, white for clarity and cleansing, black for protection, and pink for matters of the heart. Many people select a shade to match the intention they are setting, then light the candle as a focal point for meditation or spellwork.
How to use it
Choose a color that matches your intention, set the candle in a coordinating chime holder, and take a moment to focus your thought before lighting. Some people write or speak their intention as the candle is lit, then let it burn down as a quiet focal point. Use on an altar, in a crystal grid, or simply to set an intentional mood alongside smudges and herbs.
Care & burn safety
Trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each burn, place the candle on a heat-safe surface away from drafts, children, pets, and anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended. Stop burning when about 1/2 inch of wax remains.
Frequently asked questions

A spell candle is a small taper candle used in candle magic and intention-setting. Each color is traditionally linked to a different focus — for example green for abundance, red for passion, white for clarity, black for protection, and pink for love. This is a decorative/symbolic item, not a health product or medical device.
Do the candle colors mean something specific?
Yes, in candle-magic tradition color is used to focus intention. Common associations include green for abundance and prosperity, red for passion and energy, white for clarity and cleansing, black for protection, and pink for love, though practices vary by tradition.
How long does a 6-inch spell candle burn?
Burn time varies by candle and how it is used, generally a few hours per candle. Trim the wick and watch the flame to gauge remaining burn time rather than relying on an exact number.
Is a candle holder included?
No, a coordinating chime/taper candle holder is sold separately.
How do I safely burn a spell candle?
Trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting, place the candle on a heat-safe surface away from drafts, children, pets, and anything flammable, and never leave it burning unattended. Stop burning when about 1/2 inch of wax remains.
What pairs well with a spell candle?
