The Enchanted Spectrum of Protection Candles
How Do Love Spells Work?
- Color magic is a core pillar of ritual work: candle colors align your intention with protective, emotional, and spiritual outcomes.
- Black absorbs and banishes negativity; white offers universal protection; red strengthens courage; blue calms emotions and shields the mind; brown grounds and protects home; purple fortifies psychic defenses.
- Enhance results with clear intentions, anointing oils, and focused visualizations. Use clean tools and dedicated candles for each working.
- Safety first: never leave candles unattended and snuff (don’t blow) to pause a ritual.

In the mystical practice of spellcraft, candle colors carry intention. When you’re calling in protection, the shade you choose shapes the energy you build—banishing what drains you and fortifying what keeps you safe.
