Messages In The Way A Candle Burns
A Lesson In How Intention Candles Burn
Recently, one of my clients bought the Prosperity Intention Candle Kit. She purchased Prosperity because she felt she was on a roll and wanted to solidify her personal focus.
As outlined in my booklet, she set her intention and lit her candle on the day of the week that provided the best energy. She then waited.
At three days in, she emailed me, worried. The candle’s wax was sticking to the sides of the jar.
In the booklet, I explain that if the wax sticks to the sides, the issue may be sticky or something that needs to be addressed.
She wanted to know if we needed to do a reading or if she needed another candle. My answer was no.
I’m not going to do a reading for someone who doesn’t need one. Yes, you read that correctly. I’m not here to make you addicted to my intuition. I’m here to offer a path to your own intuition and knowing.
Yes, as a psychic and intuitive, I see things. But I frequently suggest that clients who are in a state of panic wait a few days before deciding if they need to come see me. Spiritual counseling, I believe, is something that shouldn’t be abused. It’s an honor to have the gift of guidance.
So what did I say to my customer?
Here’s the email I sent her. I changed a few things to respect her privacy and clarify the message.
Dear E.,
Everything is fine. You are on a roll. This is part of the journey for you. This means you must stay on course and not lose sight of your intention.
When a person embodies their intention, a large part of it is clearing anything preventing one from being of service. This is a powerful part of the entire process.
Stickiness in an issue does not mean it won’t work. (Wax sticking to the side of a glass jar indicates something may be stuck with the intention.) In fact, it means that there WERE issues – which is good. The candle intention pulls and clears. The feeling of worry that you are experiencing, I’m guessing, is one that you have had many times in other areas.
Your emotional experience surrounding the candle is showing you where you stop yourself. When something outside you isn’t showing you what you think it should, you may fall into doubt. This is the time to go back inside to what YOU know is true within. Are you on your path? Are you in gratitude?
Look at your candle. What is it telling YOU? Are you making a path in the world? Could that be the message? Could it be that you are barreling through alone? (Note: Her candle was burning a cavern down the middle.)
As you look at your candle, what do you see? This is a new endeavor for you, a new start. You are on your path – it’s narrow, yes? It may mean that you need to expand your awareness.
There are a few other ways to interpret the way your candle burns. These are special candles that are poured by a Reiki practitioner. The energy is already imbedded in the candle. How does the shape (the way it burns) reveal what is really going on with you?
This small experience is revealing where, or more importantly, when you are in doubt. So the question is this: What will it take for you to have faith in yourself?
YOU ARE on an energetic roll. Allow the candle to guide you to more determination and focus. After the candle has finished burning, cleaning the jar is the key. Use it for money you find. Mine is filled with bills…fives and tens I’ve found on the street. It’s crazy how it attracts.
Give yourself the mantra that the reason the wax is sticking to the sides is because money is going to stick to you!
Thanks for your question. This will be my next blog!
Blessings,
Tori
