When praying with your candle it is good to observe its flame, the presence of wafts of smoke, and the colour, if the glass is turning black inside, if the glass breaks, etc. Each of these signs has its own meaning. This is the Spirit telling you something about your spiritual work, or of a present condition in your life, if your prayer will be granted, or is spiritual blockages are not yet completely removed so that your prayer will be answered.
How The Candle Burns:
- When you first light the candle, if it emits black smoke it is a sign that it is beginning to remove negative energy from your desire.
- When the smoke is white, then your prayer will be answered, but there may be some struggles to obtain your desire.
- A strong flame is a good indication. The candle is working by sending out a lot of power and energy to bring about a manifestation of your prayer. This is a sign that the candle is working rapidly.
- A weak or low flame indicates that the candle is working very slowly to remove an obstacle or to bring in a positive vibration to your prayer. You are facing some heavy opposition to having the request granted. It is an indication that you will have to pray a little longer time before your desire is granted.
- A jumping flame can indicate spiritual warfare on your behalf. A lot of raw energy and power is working. If the candle is a war candle, then the person whose name is attached to the candle is fighting.
- If the smoke wafts towards you, then your prayer is acknowledged.
- If the smoke blows in the direction away from you, it is a definite sign that you still need perseverance in order to obtain your desire.
- If the smoke turns toward your right, then you will need to use a bit of patience. Success will come through using your head. If it blows toward you after first moving to the right, then success will come quickly in granting the prayer.
- If the smoke blows toward your left, then you are becoming too emotionally involved with the situation you are praying for, and you are in danger of subconsciously sabotaging your own prayer so that it will not be answered.
- At times you will hear crackling sounds as the candles are burning. This is taken to indicate that the spirit is pleading your case on your behalf. The stronger the crackling sound, the stronger the opposition is against you.
- If the glass breaks, it can indicate (depending on the situation) that someone is working against you, because "the pressure is on". On the other hand, if the work you are doing is an Uncrossing (or Hex-Removing), and the glass breaks, then the evil that is against you is broken.
Reading the Glass:
- If the glass containing the candle remains clear as it burns, your prayer will granted in spite of any opposition.
- If the glass begins to turn black at the top, but is clearing up at the bottom, is it a sign that you have someone working against you. The darker it turns, the stronger the opposition. This does not mean your prayer will not be answered. Don't jinx yourself with negative thinking here; your prayer can still be answered with perseverance.
- If the glass turns black all the way down to the bottom, you have some serious obstacles blocking your prayer from coming into reality. You need to do some Uncrossing "lights" (spiritual work), and take some spiritual baths to remove negativity, and the hexed/cursed condition. You are a victim of black magic. If you are unlucky consult a trained healer/diviner; you may need a stronger counter-work than just using candles or spiritual baths to remove this kind of strong negative work.
