The ritual to make wishes with simpler candles consists of visualizing what you want and seeing yourself achieving it, concentrating all your energy. Today we will tell you how this ritual is done and what colors of candles you should use according to what you want.

How should we use candles to make wishes?

The first thing you should know is that this ritual to make wishes with candles, despite being very simple, requires a high level of mental concentration and energy, since It is through what you transmit to the fire that it will act in your favor.

Fire transforms and purifies by burning away bad habits and inspiring your creativity. It allows you to communicate your desire and wishes to the universe through smoke.

Establish the connection

For centuries people have lit candles in order to initiate any ritual, from making a wish, praising a sato or invoking a deity, but for them a connection is always established.

Close your eyes while you light the candle you have chosen and try to come into contact with it, with the fire it gives off and the smoke it emanates. Evoke your spiritual strength and your energy and project what you want to achieve, your most longed-for secrets, while trying to connect with ancestral beings and all the power of the universe.

Although the visualization and the connection you generate with the candle are enough to attract what you want so much, if you choose the right color that suits what you want, its magical associations will help you reinforce the ritual, and therefore guarantee complete success.

Choose the right color
