CANDLE COLORS PART 2
You need to check out the blog named "Candle Colors" to get the basis of this blog...
Ok, so this delves a bit deeper into the "color pit" and explains a bit more in detail what colors are good for what..I do not have every single color..so comments with extra colors are welcomed!
BLACK Usually associated with the clergy and ministerial figures, black stops gossiping, meddling people right in their tracks. It's also great for breaking bad habits, or for any work that involves separation, wisdom, secrets, or invoking The Crone aspect of the Triple Goddess.
PALE BLUE This shade goes a long way in relieving confusion, anxiety, and loss of control. Try it for efforts that involve calmness, peace, tranquility, healing, and pleasant dreams.
DARK BLUE If you need to get organized and add some structure to your life, this is the color for you. It's also a wonderful hue for invoking the water element, or calling upon feminine dieties.
BROWN If you intend to bounce off the wall with excess energy, try brown. It works wonders when it comes to grounding and centering, as well as for magickal work involving stability and common sense. Try it, too, for diffusing potentially harmful situations.
GOLD Generally used in altar candles to represent The God, gold tends to make us feel financially prosporous and personally secure. I've also found that it's a great perk to efforts involving financial increase and general success.
SILVER Commonly used in altar candles to represent The Goddess, this color also works well in rituals to relieve inner turmoil and gain a personal sense of peace and serenity.
GREEN If you lack ambition, hate challenges, and always feel that you're dependant on someone else, this color can help. Use it, too, for invoking fertility, prosperity, growth, general independance, and the earth element.
LAVENDER This color is a fabulous tension - reliever, even in the most stressful situations. It's also great for workings that involve the intellect and knowledge retensions, controlling erratic energy, and for making inner beauty come to the surface.
MAUVE This color tends to bring cooperation from even the most stubborn of people. It works well in efforts that deal with the increase of intuitive and psychic powers, self-trust, and self-confidence.
ORANGE If personal motivation is a problem, try orange. There's nothing quite like it to make you want to get off your duff and take action. It's also great for attraction rituals, gaining positive test scores, and business projects and proposals.
PEACH Because peach is a safe, reassuring color, it works wonders during those times when a gentle, nurturing, and non-threatening appearance is necessary. It's also a great asset to efforts involving friends, kindness, sympathy, empathy, and well-wishing.
PINK Because it stimulates self-love, this color can help you to become your own best friend. It also works well in efforts that involve romance, love, friendship, and harmony.
PURPLE A terrific color to wear on job interviews. Purple helps you gain respect. Try it, too, for work that deals with spirituality, mental and psychic power, and for invoking the akasha element.
RED Especially helpful to shy folks who hold positions of authority, this color really shines when it comes to taking charge of difficult situations. It also works well in efforts that involve passion, sexual desire, vitality, physical stregth, energy, and activity. Use it, too, when invoking the fire element or The Mother aspect of the Triple Goddess.
TEAL Teal not only brings equal footing to practicality and spirituality, but makes you feel like you can handle even the most insurmountable of problems. Use it in work that deals with getting a handle on practical matters, decision-making, balance, and matters that involve gaining trust.
TURQUOISE A must for workaholics. This color forces you to take a step back and look at your workload through new eyes. It works well in rituals that involve stress relief, study, and knowledge retention, and finding logic in situations where none seem to exist.
YELLOW Ever feel that no matter how loud you talk, no one hears what you say? If so, then this is the color for you. It works best in efforts dealing with communication, creative endeavors, success, and joy. Use it, too, for invoking the air element and The God.
WHITE To relieve tension and bring focus to life goals, try white. It's also great for efforts that require clarity or spiritual guidance, and for invoking The Maiden aspect of the Triple Goddess.
(NOTE: Since white is a culmination of all colors, it may be substituted for any color during magickal work.)
