budget diy tip: buy candles from thrift stores, cleanse them (if you want), then melt them down and pour into your favorite containers! wicks are easy and cheap to buy, and once you have a stash of wicks and containers (which can range from jars to teacups to even seashells), you can make your own candles! for an extra fun twist, buy unscented thrift shop candles and add essential oils for your own custom scents. it's fun and cheap!
Reuse your tealight cups! Use the spent wick tab, press into the bottom of a warm chime candle, and put herbs and salts into the gab between the candle and the edge of the tea light cup. You can use the empty cups to make new tea lights with wax scraps, For signal work on tiny candles, use a detail brush, and gold or sliver paint, also using bits of crayon to melted wax to add color, You can use a burnt tip of a tooth pick to draw with ash , LOVE my candles 🥰
Am 44 years old and been practicing for 25 yrs,started my magical journey with basic candle Magick. This is such an awesome video and in depth about candle Magick, AWEOME AWESOME JOB!!!!
Candle work is my favorite! I feel it is just wholesome. It is also aesthetically pleasing. And those in the broom closet can do candle magic this last three months of the year because it is just a norm. Almost everyone has candles for decorations in these holiday months! So it will not be suspicious, it will be considered "aesthetic". Hehehe Follow safety precautions of course! Great advice on that! Hahaha
Salicylic acid can be a great treatment for the maskne. If it's actual pimples rather than dry patches, I'd recommend it. I personally use the revolution beauty. Pop it on acne right before bed and I wake up with the pimple gone or mostly gone. If you're dealing with irritation, aloe vera may help soothe.
I really enjoy your content it was actually a video you did with chaotic witch aunt that has me subbed to both of you. Love love love THIS. You literally have all of the thing's one wants in a teacher. *Chefs kiss* Thanks for repping all us A.D.D kids!
Another great video! I personally am taking my craft back to the basics. I was getting overwhelmed with complex spellwork and ritual, so now I've gone back to basic meditation and mindfulness and its a really good place to be for now. 😁✌️
I’m a candlemaker on the side. A hobby that I started because of the abundant need for candles in my witchcraft practice. You made my heart happy by going over fire safety and warnings. I see some YT videos where they say big flames mean the spell is working whereas I immediately thought “no your wick isn’t sized right for the application”. And I’ve done it, so I can’t besmirch, but adding herbs to candles is not the safest. But I anoint my candles still and just keep an eye on them for flame 🔥
I do a loooot of candle spells, it’s probably one of my most commonly used spells because they’re so versatile. But I loved this video, I love going back to basics and I love hearing your perspectives
@@MindPop98 I do, I’m a fire sign so I do a lot of things involving fire, it just helps me connect more. Only once have I not received the outcome I expected but even then it worked, I just wasn’t specific enough
I adore this video and your channel! Indeed I don't usually pay much attention to the soot on the glass when I work with cheap candles (I VERY RARELY can afford good quality candles, and usually insave those for offerings to my deities rather than use them in spells). Cheap glass candles will 100% soot at some point. And that doesn't mean your spell is not working. I got a few glass candle once (same producer, same store) that smoked like crazy. At first I thought "oh no, my spell isn't working, I did something wrong) but I also offered another one of those candles to one of my deities, didn't anoint it at all, just cleansed and dedicated it... And that one smoked like crazy too So I would say don't look too much into stuff like that (candles burning unevenly, soot, smoke), especially with cheap candles. Mind you, even expensive nice candles can soot sometimes. And that doesn't mean you did something wrong. It happens. If the candle refuses to light... It could either be the quality of it, or that it isn't the right time for you to do that spell. In this case I would advise trying the same thing with another candle just to be sure. Cause again.... If it's a cheap candle... It can have trouble burning in general. (I am saying all this as a broke witch living in a country where good quality candles aren't just pricey, but expensive as heck, because of local currency). I liked the idea with the wick and wax shapes after the candle burned though! Amazing form of divination!
Pickle / food jars are the best! When I make candles, I find pickle / food jars better at heat resistant compared to jars sold as candle jars (which break easily).
This is so great!! Candles are one of my favorite spell components. Sooo much good info & encouragement. Thank you!! The problem I find with those huge thick votives is they can tunnel, so the outside doesn't melt. Idk if the one I used was crap quality, but I spent the week of burning squishing the sides down with a fork to make sure all the stuff on the outside melted (it was my first spell y'all). It might not if it had multiple wicks, but def test one before you use it for a spell.
Thank you so much for this video! It’s good to go back to basics! You gave me lots of new ideas for my candle spells, thank you! As usual I love your videos! Also, Congratulations on your blog! ❤️🎉
This was the best in depth candle magic video that got straight to the point. Loving this longer video Nike! Now I have another one of your videos to spam people with lol
I know this has been up for a while, but maybe try using silk masks. Think about it other masks like cotton are sitting on your face sucking any of those natural oils and moisture out of the skin. I found silk masks helped For me!
thanks for this so much Nike - I am the 'what if it goes wrong person' but with this info I think I will create me a sigil this weekend and crack right on with my candle !
@@WarriorWitchNike yeah, or a color that is just off. They have Beige ones here. Beige, who wants a beige candle? Also most of the colored ones have very... strong smells.
So the key to overall is intention? Like you mentioned you could test things without intention. So meaning nothing happens ensues you have an intention? Sorry I'm new to witchy things :)
So informative! This has helped me plan out some candle spells this week. Would you ever consider making a video about how to know if someone has put a spell on you? I am so curious about your experience and tips!
I think a lot of people are focused on the aesthetic clutter. Sometimes a clean, minimalistic space or practice works a lot better for you. I encourage it! Especially since too much clutter can make your brain messy and less able to concentrate on what you need.
I now use the small taper candles. I get called into work randomly never know when the phone is going to ring. I work as a security guard and fire alarms go down in building . So sometimes I need to put candles out
I love this, thank you! I just started with candle magic, but what the heck do I do with the candle once I'm done? I've heard dropping them off at crossroads, burying them, or throwing them away far from you for banishing. What do you do?
What do you consider small vs large spells? I have pillar and tea light, so when to use one over the other. If using tea light, how to know how mamy to use? I want to use pillar for peace at home. Any suggestions to set intenrion, i have difficulry coming up wirh intention:) Are there any books u recomend? How long does it take for manifestation ? I want to so learn and understand Do you teach about candle magic...you re great...and if you give classes where can i find out abt them Thank you, thank you, thank you
Hi what about the traditional way of putting herbs inside the candle glass on the top obviously this could start a fire but your method of putting herbs around the plate at the bottom seem safer do you think this could be just as effective as putting herbs inside the candle? Thank you
Awesome information Nike! I know Everytime I watch your videos, I'll get solid, accurate information. Will you ever share your recipe for the prosperity oil? Just curious as to what you would put in it ☺️
I may share it if I make an oils video in the future. Off the top of my head I believe it had curly dock, goldenrod, basil, I think cinnamon?, and bay leaves for sure. I'm sure I'm forgetting one or two things.
I'm in college so I'm not sure if I'm allowed to burn things in doors, so I got wax cubes and a melter. How would things apply to this? I probably can't read it or anything.
i read in a candle book to anoint from the center of the candle to the top and to the bottom an even amount of times. is there just different ways to do it?
Your candle’s power is the same no matter where you buy it. Whether the candle was purchased at the dollar store or a metaphysical shop does not have any bearing on the power of the candle only the price. The magic comes from within you.
If you light a candle on full moon can you light another candle right after it has been burnt out or should I wait ? Because 1 of my candles have been lighting really low.
I’m in the middle of some candle magic at this moment and my protection candle has been burning amazing and out of no where I heard a sizzle and I looked over and there was an O smoke ring floating away… not 100% sure if I know what that means but I am assuming it’s my spirit guides really working hard on the protection
I have an important question. I hope anybody could help to answer. If i use a taper candle for a spell, can i not finish it, and keep it for another spell?
Technically, no. You intention is what's important. That being said, the color of a candle attracts similar vibrations and so can help a spell work faster. Using a red candle for someone who is ailing can help the spell as life force and vitality resonate to red, but if all you have is green, then you imagine the person *growing* healthy, or if all you have is black, then the illness is the black candle, burning away. Ya make it work. ;-)

@Brandon Vanderpols what the heck
Who wants there ex back
Ex is called ex for a reason
The past
To keep the candle from burning weird or starting a straight up fire, I started anointing (even herb coating) the holder instead of the candle.
Am 44 years old and been practicing for 25 yrs,started my magical journey with basic candle Magick. This is such an awesome video and in depth about candle Magick, AWEOME AWESOME JOB!!!!
Hey, can you please tell me what should I do with the little wax that is left after the candle is being burnt ?

Everyone is dealing with "maskne"😥
It's the price of living, and very rude!

Does anyone say “blessed be Nike” after Nike says blessed be?.... asking for a friend😂 (me, in the friend)
Very helpful info to add to my knowledge base. I appreciate the content and your teaching style. Keep up the good work! 💫
Honestly, thank you so much, this was extremely helpful and also inspired me to do a spell.
Thank you for sharing this knowledge
Candle magic, my favorite 😍

Thank you for sharing all this Eve useful tips!!! Where do you buy your glass candles from?
I’ve been practicing candle magik for 4 years and thought I knew absolutely everything I could, and I still learned a lot from this video ☺️💗🌿
thanks for this so much Nike - I am the 'what if it goes wrong person' but with this info I think I will create me a sigil this weekend and crack right on with my candle !
That's awesome! I wish you well!!
Do we all own the same dollar tree candles and glass candle stands? Lol
I get everything from the dollar tree. I got a cute little bottle full of seashells there, just because.
Thank u nice video
I love the idea of using Tea lights, It's a short burn (2 hours max). I just hate the lack of colors here were I live. :/
I feel the same. The only colored ones are at the dollar tree, and even then it's only about 4 colors, most of which are red right now.
@@WarriorWitchNike yeah, or a color that is just off. They have Beige ones here. Beige, who wants a beige candle? Also most of the colored ones have very... strong smells.
You can bake them in the oven until they melt and then stir in some little crayon pieces to color your tea lights
So the key to overall is intention? Like you mentioned you could test things without intention. So meaning nothing happens ensues you have an intention? Sorry I'm new to witchy things :)
😊😊😊 thanks so much for this, so many great tips.😊😊😊
@Brandon Vanderpols bro, gtfoh with your sales pitch! No one asked for it
I can make the thicker chime candles and tall tapered candles. I just made my first chime candle today
So informative! This has helped me plan out some candle spells this week.
Would you ever consider making a video about how to know if someone has put a spell on you? I am so curious about your experience and tips!
Im a new sub. Your video is awesome. Love it. Thank you so much.
Can I reuse diety candles if I dont talk to them much or is that disrespectful?
For the chime candle to get it to stand safe I saw somewhere you can make your own holder pretty cheap with air dry clay
How do I know how large a spell is?
Thank you:)
I love candle magic but I hate clutter. What are your thoughts on minimalism and witchcraft?
I think a lot of people are focused on the aesthetic clutter. Sometimes a clean, minimalistic space or practice works a lot better for you. I encourage it! Especially since too much clutter can make your brain messy and less able to concentrate on what you need.
Hi Nike!!!
I now use the small taper candles. I get called into work randomly never know when the phone is going to ring. I work as a security guard and fire alarms go down in building . So sometimes I need to put candles out
Great video girlll 😍 What should I do with leftover wax of candles ?
Depends on what the spell was for. I’d say banishment, bury it far away...
I love this, thank you! I just started with candle magic, but what the heck do I do with the candle once I'm done? I've heard dropping them off at crossroads, burying them, or throwing them away far from you for banishing. What do you do?
Ooooooooooo I'm going to your site!!
Is there a reason you can't carve sigil onto the top of the candle(for like glass or tealight candles)?
If that works for you, I'd go for it! I just personally like to have the sigil around as long as possible so I opt for the side or bottom.
Can you suggest the color and symbol for a court case settlement.
Red
What do you consider small vs large spells?
I have pillar and tea light, so when to use one over the other.
If using tea light, how to know how mamy to use?
I want to use pillar for peace at home. Any suggestions to set intenrion, i have difficulry coming up wirh intention:)
Are there any books u recomend?
How long does it take for manifestation ?
I want to so learn and understand
Do you teach about candle magic...you re great...and if you give classes where can i find out abt them

Does the cinnamon make the candle light faster? I have a candle lit now and its burning pretty fast.

Hi, what are you asking the cards before you do the spell? Like, "what do I need to know before I do this working?" or something like that?
Usually it's something like that, yeah.
i read in a candle book to anoint from the center of the candle to the top and to the bottom an even amount of times. is there just different ways to do it?
I'm also re-reading Buckland. ;-) Yes, there is no ONE WAY. Do what works for you.
I am very new to this and was curious after the candle is burned out all the way how should you dispose of the remincence?
Your candle’s power is the same no matter where you buy it. Whether the candle was purchased at the dollar store or a metaphysical shop does not have any bearing on the power of the candle only the price. The magic comes from within you.
I really wanna get a 7 day candle but I’m so scared it’s gonna pop cuz I’m in the broom closet 😬
If you light a candle on full moon can you light another candle right after it has been burnt out or should I wait ? Because 1 of my candles have been lighting really low.

Should I touch the candle while its burning like if the wax is melting inwards should I move the wax back into place
Late but, i’d say no. Try looking into wax reading/candle reading! It could be a sign that your spell is/isn’t working or you’re doing the wrong thing
@@annastascia878 thanks
I have an important question. I hope anybody could help to answer. If i use a taper candle for a spell, can i not finish it, and keep it for another spell?
If you have anointed the candles for a spell then they need to be used until the end of the spell. This is when birthday candles come in handy. ;-)
@@sebastian122 oh thank you for the info! :D

how would you incorporate a petition into a candle spell
Perhaps design a sigil and put it on the jar?
Lol totally get the ADHD. Loved the video though 👌
The mask pimples are pretty common now.
What's a sigle?
Sigils***
Yes to breaking out around the mask area...so awful.
Yea candles doesn’t work for me. They don’t harness enough energy. I found the longer the candle burns the strong and better my spells are.
