DIY Intention Candles

Ask any witch, spiritual person, or female, and they’ll all say you can’t have too many candles. Chiefly, candles and magick go hand in hand. For example, blowing out your birthday candles. A wish is essentially a spell. By the same token, witches imbue candles with energy for a spell. Likewise, in my spiritual practice, I imbue my candles with an intention. Undoubted, it’s the same thing. Do you know how easy it is to DIY intention candles?

What are Intention Candles?

Candle magick is one of the simplest forms of spellcraft. Specifically, the candle is a focus tool for a magical outcome, or to meditate on something you’re releasing. To clarify, the forms of candle craft are endless!

Candle magick is so powerful because of the fire’s transformational abilities.

Spells are powered by intentions and energy. I love pouring my energy into the tools I crafted myself. This way, I’m powering my spells even more with my intention. This is true whether I’m performing a ritual or adding ambiance and intention to my spiritual practice.

Think about what you’re using your candles for. Your intention will affect what properties go into your candle. This includes herbs and oils, crystal chips, the candle color, and even the energy you channel into your DIY intention candles. 

Materials Needed

  • Wax – Three most popular waxes are beeswax, soy wax, and paraffin wax.
  • Double Boiler
  • Herbs
  • Wicks – Two most popular wick options are cotton wicks and wood wicks. 
  • Wooden Dowels
  • Candle Dye
  • Flowers
  • Holders – Mason jars, glass, ceramic, or metal containers.
  • Essential Oil
  • Crystal Chips
  • Candle Making Kit – OR you could get a kit.

Make sure you’re using heat-safe containers. Do Not use just any glass jar.

Of course, what you add to your candle is optional. Get crafty with it! Add items that resonate with your goal.

Candle Colors

This is not an exhaustive list of candle color meanings. Just to get you started, here’s common meanings:

  • White – abundance, success, & peace.
  • Blue – peace, communication, problem-solving, & learning.
  • Dark Blue – changes, depression.
  • Light Blue – serenity, meditation, healing, & patience.
  • Pink – relationships, romantic love, self-love, friendships, & family relationships.
  • Red – romantic love, self-love, passion, & courage.
  • Black – reflecting, ambition, banishing, & home blessings.
  • Brown – abundance, earth or animal-related, grounding, stability, balance.
  • Yellow – energy, creativity, joy, & intelligence.
  • Purple – spirituality, psychic powers, wisdom, intuition, hidden knowledge.
  • Green – wealth, money, abundance, luck, & growth.
  • Orange – confidence, success, encouragement, & power.

Cleanse Your Candle

Smudge your candle and then enchant it to seal in the intention.

  1. Visualize a bright light surrounding your candle and cleansing it.
  2. Hold your candle and visualize your intention going into the candle.
  3. Repeat your intention, say a prayer or an incantation over your candle.

Ready to DIY an Intention Candle?

Many newbies to intention candles ask me where to begin. Understandably, there is a lot of information out there!

The most important thing to remember is that there’s no wrong way to craft an intention candle. Always follow your intuition and do what feels right to you.

Hopefully, this post gave some clarity on how to begin.

Remember, Intention is Everything!

Do You Have an Altar?

“An altar is a place of sacrifice and a powerpoint to draw spiritual and supernatural strength.” – Genesis 8:20-21.  But, from a witch’s point of view, an altar has many purposes. Crafting spells, meditation, and worship are the functions of mine. I enjoy the act of building a dedicated display so much, even when not in use, it’s a prized witchy ornament focal point. Do you have an altar?

*This post may contain affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission, at no cost to you, if you make a purchase through a link!*

Effectiveness

In the first place, over decorating an altar is easy to do. When you work a spell your intent is directing energy. Not to mention that your intent is reinforced by the correspondences. So, effectively directing energy can be a challenge with a lot of unnecessary extra items. I have found that less is more.

Comparatively, what about quick sigil, candle, or spells you perform outside? Personally, I don’t need to set up a ritual at all in those cases.

I have one routine spell that I recharge on my altar. Of course, I switch out candles, crystals, and charms, but everything corresponds with the same intent. As can be seen, anytime I get the urge to work this spell, my area is ready to go. Under those circumstances, I feel that my efforts increase the spell potency.

Regardless of what I share in my craft, your spell crafting space is personalized to you. Ultimately, always do what feels right.

To point out, an altar is simply a sacred space. It can be a dedicated area where you go to connect with the spirit.

Therefore, without performing magick at all having a special area is a great addition to your spiritual practice. It can be your sacred space where you meditate. Or the place where you connect best with your guides, angels, or ascended masters.

What’s On Your Altar?

Commonly found on altars:

I’m a chronic intention setter. I use any bare area to honor a deity, an intention, or the elements. Likewise, I’ve had altars dedicated to my children and grandson to infuse them with unconditional love and peace. I’ve fashioned together more altars than I can remember and have had up to eight at one time scattered throughout my home.

Read about the Angelic Rainbow of Light here.

In this case, I wasn’t crafting spells, but rather appreciating.

For example, to connect with the water element, I adorned a small table in my bathroom with objects corresponding to water. That was my focal point while meditating in the bathtub. I expressed my gratitude for all the powerful energy the element of water does for me in my spiritual practice.

Above all, it’s important to remember to have fun with your intention. If you feel guided, do it!

Happy Crafting!

What Are Your Thoughts Forming?

A thought-form is an accumulation of energy through ideas and emotions. They can be felt like heavy energy in a room after a fight or how two people can have the same idea at the same time. Thought-forms gain momentum and strength in a group. So, nows the time to ask yourself, what are your thoughts forming?

This post contains affiliate links. This means I may earn a commission should you chose to sign up for a program or make a purchase using my link. It’s okay – I love all of these companies and if guided, you will too!

Are Your Thoughts Forming Love & Light?

The power of thought-forms comes from the energy attached to them. This strong manifested thought is surrounded by ethereal substance. What’s more, it’s charged with prana, and carries the vibration of life energy of its creator.

Annie Besant and C. W. Leadbeater wrote, “each definite thought produces a double effect — a radiating vibration and a floating form.”

For example, one person can stimulate similar vibrations of their thoughts in a nearby person. Because the floating form is a strong and definite thought, it has attracted energies from the mental and astral planes. In this way, it’s become a form of an independent being.

A thought of love directed strongly creates a form to the person thought of and remains in their aura as a shielding agent. It will strengthen friendly forces and weaken unfriendly ones that go into their aura.

According to Leadbeater’s clairvoyant perception, thought-forms are made of the matter of the thinker’s mental body. The image “floats” in the upper part of the body and remains there for as long as the person continues to think about it. It’s further suggested that if a strong emotion accompanying the thought will form an image. So now, the thought is in an astral/mental form.

When the image arrives, it discharges itself into the astral and mental bodies of that person. In turn, it arouses feelings and thoughts of a similar nature. A Textbook of Theosophy, 1946, p. 50.

Read more in their book, Thought-Forms.

Or, if you feel guided to, explore other literature on the power of Thought Forms:

Are Thought Forms Esoteric Magick?

In the works of Alice Bailey, the process of “building a thought-form” is viewed as an esoteric magical act. What this means is that everything starts off as a thought. It contains the “blueprint” using which the creation is built… including the Universe.

According to ancient teachings, two phenomena take place during the process of thinking and feeling.

After a thought-form is created, the act of thinking produces what is called a psychic radiatory field. This is similar to a transmitting tower that sends out television signals. Thinking and feeling something strongly radiates an energy field with the quality of that energy.

According to Besant and Leadbeater, a thought-form contains the exact content of your thoughts and emotions. The psychic radiatory field contains the quality of your thoughts and emotions. This is important because if you can learn the art of creating powerful thought forms, then you can harness the power of thoughts to create prosperity and success.

Thoughtforms exist in two forms, internal and external. The internal thought form exists within the energetic body. They attach themselves to our energy centers that feed and maintain them.

Negative thought-forms typically lodged themselves into the areas on the energetic body where lower vibrational primal energies exist. This is around the solar plexus, the lower back, and the naval. Positive thought-forms find their way around the heart.

External thought-forms attach themselves to places and things. They can be found where there is an abundance of the type of energy that feeds them. These can be places or objects we think of as cursed or haunted as well as places or objects we consider sacred or holy.

Clear & Protect Yourself from What Your Thoughts are Forming

The negative thought-forms in the aura damage the chakras and result in low self-confidence, low self-esteem, and will hinder future success. Consequently, it runs the same negative program over and over again.

Intentional or not, these negative programs cause bad consequences. Hence it is important to learn to protect yourself from negative thought-forms. We can also remove negative energy from objects and other people.

Diffusing essential oil with aromatherapy can clear energy and make it easier to keep a positive mind.

Sage smudging has long been used to connect to the spiritual realm and to enhance intuition. Burning sage is used to clear negative energy and to solve spiritual dilemmas.

Singing Bowls are popular among Zen practitioners and healers for prayer meditation and they frequently use the singing bowl for cleansing.

Sidenote – Tibetan singing bowls have many purposes, including stress reduction and pain relief. Singing bowls produce changes in the body by reducing ​stress and balancing the energy system. Tibetan singing bowls can also stimulate the immune system and produce beneficial changes in brain waves. They are a wonderful addition to any spiritual practice.

It’s vital to apply purifying techniques to yourself and space.

Final Thoughts on Thought-Forms

It’s important to remember that thought-forms feed on the same type of energy that created them. Further, they also gather the same type of energy. As they grow and draw more energy they attract other thought-forms of similar nature.

For this reason, it’s difficult to clear powerful thought-forms.

The better we understand our own energy, the more we increase our intuition. Feeling sad, angry, and stressed are lower vibrations saying it’s time to cleanse. An energy ritual keeps us in control of our own vibe.

Spiritual Hygiene is Important, Advanced Souls!

Stop Fearing Your Spiritual Sight

Surely, more and more of humanity is noticing beings of other Kingdoms. At the same time, more and more of humanity keep those events to themselves. Why? Because they’re afraid of what the other muggles will say. Stop that. Likewise, stop fearing your spiritual sight!!! Let me show you how.

Sound a Bit Woo-Woo? Or how about a Bunch of Hocus Pocus?

Firstly, let’s address the term “woo-woo”…

Definition of woo-woo:

“dubiously or outlandishly mystical, supernatural, or unscientific. And she has written a book … in which she dismisses what she calls “woo-woo spirituality” in favor of some straight talk on living with loss …“

Really, Merriam Webster? In favor of some straight talk, I’ll head back over to 1992 where Dolly Parton and James Woods showed us that romantic comedies are cliche, am I right?

Different from cliché sappy love stories is the spiritual realm. Not all spiritual experiences are the same and certainly nothing taboo. If your friends and family view spiritual contact as ‘Hocus Pocus’, first, remind them that was about witchcraft.

Then, remind yourself that it’s not their fault. We all step into our truth and open-mindedness at our own pace.

However, much like cliché romantic comedies, spiritual encounters are exciting to be a part of.

What is the Spiritual Sight that Scares You?

One of the tools we have to connect with the spirit world is clairsentience. Basically, it means a clear feeling. We’ll feel certain sensations when the spirit tries to grab our attention. Learn how to distinguish what each sensation means so you can figure out how to communicate back. 

Sensing energy is a form of awareness. For some of us, it’s more naturally developed, however, we all can do it.

My strongest spiritual gift is clairaudience. This is the ability to hear voices and messages from the spiritual plane. A great bonus of having a strong clairaudience is it allows us to discern a deeper meaning behind the words people speak. Most will hear ringing or buzzing and be sensitive to sounds.

Clairvoyance is clear seeing. It gives the ability to foresee events and discern premonitions. Someone who is strong in this sense, like I am, can also see through people’s untruths. They have prophetic dreams, see auras and spirits.

Claircognizance means clear knowing and allows you to “know” without any physical evidence or proof. Often, you’ll have deja vu or sudden insights about the past, present, or future. Again, this is one of my strong spiritual gifts.

Of course, there are numerous spiritual gifts; psychic mediums, healers, tarot readers, ect.

Types of Spirits You Sense

  • human spirits
  • ghost
  • thoughtforms
  • spirit guides
  • faeries
  • elementals
  • angels
  • ascended masters
  • devas

Remember that spirit is made of energy. When you are in the proximity of a ghost, it’s likely you’ll feel other sensations. Ghosts are usually unaware of you. They are wanderers.

The floaty energy you see is most likely spirit guides or angels. They are made up of high frequency. You’ll sense your personal guides in various ways. They’ll present themselves to you in ways that depend upon who they are. When in contact with angels, you’re in the presence of light. You’ll see flashes or sparkles of light.

Faeries show up in my scrying tools. If I’m scrying in sage smoke or Palo Santo smoke, they love to show themselves. You’ll know when ones around if your tiny stuff comes up missing.

Seriously, Stop Fearing Your Spiritual Sight

Once you learn how to distinguish which one you’re dealing with, you’ll learn how to start working with them. Remember, the keyword here is gift. Communicating with beings of other Kingdoms is truly a gift. And the new normal!

Being sensitive to energy allows us to be aware of the signs from the universe. But it also can lead to overstimulation. Unfortunately, this can cause a variety of problems that need to be addressed. If you are energy sensitive, there are a number of things you can do to overcome the sensitivity struggle.

  • essential oils
  • meditation
  • energy work
  • healing crystals
  • chakra balancing
  • creating energetic shields

The goal is to harness the power of your gifts and use it to your benefit.

The first step is to clear your energetic field. It’s extremely important to keep your auric field clear of debris for maximum clarity. Palo Santo is my number one source for spiritual needs. The high resin content of Palo Santo wood has purifying properties when it’s burned. That’s why it traditionally used to clear negative energy and purify spaces, people, and objects.

You can ignore your spiritual sight, but that won’t make it go away. The entire universe is ascending, fellow travelers. Share stories with like-minded souls to support each other on this confusing, but amazing journey of awakening.

We are now the first humans to know our divine, true nature.

How To Own Your Spirituality

It’s so important for people to connect to who they are. However, most are afraid to publicly step into their spiritual awakening. Fear of ridicule from the mainstream media holds a lot of us back. But, the thing is, right now the world is in a mass awakening. This is the time of evolution. Learn how to own your spirituality.

Fear is Going to Mess You Up

You have to remember that fear is a way to control. Definitely, the fear of being different holds too many back from what they are truly meant for. We didn’t come here to be popular or to follow the crowd.

Matter of fact, we came here to do just the opposite. The world is in a mass awakening for a reason. This is the first time that humans know our true divinity. Unfortunately, fear or embarrassment of going against society is strong.

To clarify, a spiritual awakening can be lonely. All these new parts of our self come to the surface, and our spiritual gifts become prominent.

Now IS the time to Own Your Spirituality

Not only is it the time that humanity is being called to embrace spiritual roots, but the benefits are amazing. For this reason, by taking a more holistic approach, we can heal ourselves on all levels.

In general, a transformation entails uncovering what’s beneath the consciousness to bring deep changes. It’s not about treating symptoms but rather acknowledging root psyche situations. Achieving dreams happens after removing limiting beliefs.

  • consciously create
  • own your power
  • growth
  • shift your subconscious

All in all, our perception changes drastically moment by moment. Assessing and learning exercises to re-program our sub-conscious works to our advantage. After all, understanding the processes in how things work supports constant growth. Applying how you learn as an individual brings the most abundant progress.

It’s important to realize that energy goes where attention flows. Indeed, that’s why we are manifesting all the time. In reality, conscious living allows us to create our reality.

Reconnecting with and honoring our divine dualities is important. In short, we have to tap into our place of balance, healing, rejuvenation, creativity, love, compassion, empathy, and mystical wisdom.

More of us are interested in finding our life’s purpose, and who’s not looking for the truth? It’s so important for everyone to understand the lessons they’ve come to learn. Essentially, you can cultivate all of that and have passion in life. Matter of fact, that may bring you passion.

Learn How to Own Your Spirituality

Wouldn’t it be nice to stand in all your glory and truth? Do you want to uncover what truly brings you happiness?  

Arriving at that place requires letting go, purging, releasing, and shifting. With this in mind, you gotta make space for opportunities. You have to learn how to own your spirituality.

Nonetheless, releasing stagnation and healing old traumas is hard. Consequently, there are huge benefits to energy work. The Community offers a unique blend of guidance and support. Given these points, the modalities to do this are vast.

For example, some of these include working to uncover and clear deep soul stuff as found in these workbooks:

Get Yours Now!
Get Yours Now!
Get Yours Now!

Love Yourself is an Achievement

All things considered, you have to know, see, and feel that you’re a divine being. You’re made of stardust, love, and power. Ultimately, self-discovery is a worthy endeavor.

Create a sacred space to heal, grow, and accept the truth of the perfect being that you already are.

It’s time to discover how magical you really are!

With the Highest of Highest Love & Bright Shiny Blessings!

5 Essential Life Lessons

A candle holder with text - Find Joy In The Little Things. It's surrounded by ivy and a tiny witches broom.

It’s said that we’ll be guaranteed fulfillment if we follow certain life lessons. Of course, this is contingent on how open one is to different ideas. Here are 5 essential life lessons taught for a good life.

Be Grateful (Most Important Life Lesson)

Out of all the life lessons there are, gratitude seems to be at the top of the list. With good reason though. Life gives us stress and struggles which bring our esteem down. Gratitude for the little things tells the universe that you appreciate everything about life in general. It will attract more positive things to you.

Focus On What You Can Control

If we focus on what truly matters then it’s easier to reach a goal. Losing focus on things out of our control brings unnecessary stress. Stick to your life’s purpose and release what’s out of your hands. You’ll find yourself happier.

Accept Failures

Most of us try our hardest not to fail because of social status. Society has conditioned us to believe failures as a bad thing. A life lesson to follow is not to be afraid of failure. Sometimes when this happens, we tend to hate ourselves. The truth is, failure is a learning aspect of life.

Age Doesn’t Define You

Age shouldn’t hinder what you want to do. Sometimes people feel it’s not socially acceptable to participate in certain things. Don’t let age limit your life experiences.

Prioritize

Prioritize the things you hold dear to you. More specifically, relationships. We tend to forget that the people in our lives are vital assets. Family and friends are invaluable. Make it a point to let these people know how much their appreciated often. Ultimately, love is the only thing that truly matters.

Thoughts on 5 Essential Life Lessons

Life is essentially a teacher. We don’t always have to learn the hard way though. Try to incorporate these 5 essential life lessons into your life and see how you feel.

Right now the world is in evolution and humanity is going through a mass awakening. We are being more mindful of how we live and act. Along with following life lessons, humanity is participating in a transformation.

Ascension requires deep healing at the core level. The Gift of Forgiveness Workbook and Violet Flame Transmutation Workbook will accelerate radical change.

Spiritual Awakening & Magick

People often think of magick as witchcraft or wizards. But, magick is done in many forms by many different people. Magick is all around us whether one’s aware or not. Since I began my awakening three years ago, I’ve noticed how spiritual awakening & magick go hand in hand.

Spiritual Awakening Shows us our Magick

When we wake up to the illusions of the world we start to notice otherworldly beings. Notably, faeries and nature spirits. Noticing these beings opens the door for us to co-exist with them. Or, work with them if you’re into Faery Magick.

The energy of nature spirits in between trees

We realize that we are being guided by higher forces. Even though we’ve always had these guides, we are noticing their messages now. In addition, we learn to communicate with them.

Communicating with them can be as simple as asking a question out loud and then later seeing something that answered your question. Then again, you could ask a yes or no question and state what you’ll look for.

For instance, email yourself but address it to your guides or the universe. Say if the answer is yes, show you a certain object or let you hear a phrase three times in the next couple of days. If the answer is yes, I promise you’ll see your confirmation.

Of course, some people are mediums and can channel these beings directly. Some of us are highly intuitive and can sense energy and messages. Because our spiritual abilities and gifts become more prominent, it encourages some to find their calling in tarot or psychic readings.

Spiritual Practice IS Magick

I quickly learned how similar my spiritual practice and witchcraft are. A good example of this is the use of healing crystals. Both practices know the magick and power of these stones and work with them every day.

I advocate for everyone to use healing crystals regardless of their lifestyle. They are amazing divine gifts. You can read more about why here.

Before participating in any sort of metaphysics, it’s a good idea to protect yourself. In witchcraft, we cast a circle and call upon the Guardians of the Watch Towers to protect us. In spiritual practice, we call upon the angels to form a circle of protection around us before meditating.

Speaking of meditation, think about meditation for a specific purpose. For example, to clear chakras. With your mind you imagine a colored light going to your chakras and cleansing them. As a result, your chakras are benefiting!

Is that not magick?!

Our Natural State of Being

The truth is we are all naturally magick. I hope humanity gets to the point of acceptance rather than shunning. Magick is not evil nor against the Will of God. The complete opposite actually because we were gifted these abilities.

Spoiler alert – you’re magick! is a blog post I wrote last year demonstrating these points. If you feel called to check it out I think you’ll find it interesting. We live in a magical universe full of magical beings. Embrace it!

Don’t Hide Your Magick!
