Follow the journey of your candle as it transcends blocks, brings insight and messages.
A low or small flame-
A low or small flame can indicate an internal or external block- something is out of alignment, or there is an intention issue. How will you know which it is? Firstly, what do you intuitively deduce? Next is a process of elimination. Allow the current light method session to run for two hours, give gratitude and snuff the flame.
The next time you light your candle, affirm and hold deep gratitude for the healing and manifestations you are receiving, for internal and external blocks that are cleared.
A high or tall flame-
A high or tall flame can be a good sign that strong energy is going into your manifestations, but perhaps a little grounding is needed. Commence the next burn from a grounded space.
The flame goes out suddenly-
When the flame suddenly goes out, it can be a sign the work is complete. it can also indicate that there is an energy issue. The next time you set up for your light method session, ensure you are fully grounded, you and your space and clear and protected, and align your intention. It can be an indication that the work is complete, or that the energy you were working in was not conducive to the outcome you sought. We always trust in the divine intelligence of our spiritual team and the faith that all is worked through for our greater good.
The flame leans to one side-
When the flame leans in one direction without any obvious environmental influence, it can denote a deepening of the message being brought; in rare cases, it can indicate external energy.
North- earth elements, material world blocks, and financial blocks are being cleared, past wounding and shadow is being transcended, ancestors are communicating.
East- air elements, mental blocks, intellect, clarity, truth, focus, intention, your spiritual team are communicating.
South- fire elements, creative blocks, anger-based blocks, purpose and passion, shame and trauma are being healed to clear the path to your manifestation.
West- water elements, emotional blocks, love and relationships, psychic and spiritual blocks, healing and subconscious matters.
If you're having trouble working out which way is which, place a compass, some people have one on their phone, to help determine the flame direction.
A popping or crackling flame-
When the candle communicates, popping, cracking sounds can be a breakthrough in the energy, a block has been cleared, or a message is being brought. You could receive the message in that moment, or in the residual wax in the jar, Check our guide to reading the residual wax in your jar for interesting insight. When your candle communicates, take a moment to receive the message.
A dancing or flickering flame
A dancing flame can denote blocks are being cleared, if the flame looks as if much is going on, often there is, a high-energy clearance is taking place. On very rare occasions, an erratic dancing flame can give us a sign that our manifestations are being blocked by interference that can be either within ourselves or from outside interference. Check that the candle is not near any obvious drafts,
