šŸ”„ Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE - Of the Element Fire

Okay, I love the daily candle magic and I love the guided meditations that go with them, but sometimes I donā€™t have the time to meditate and I wanted something to say as I lit my daily candle. I used the information found on Candle Magic Spells and Rituals and wrote a little cantrip for eight colors. I hope you guys enjoy.

I light a red candle to bring the element of Fire.
For love and passion and all that I aspire.
Bring me warmth and bring me protection,
And burn through the negative to bring me purification.

I light a yellow candle to bring the element of Air,
For wisdom and creativity and all that I dare.
Bring me joy and strengthen my focus,
And clear any blockages that keep me from my hocus pocus.

I light a pink candle to bring about self-care,
For forgiveness and kindness and all I need there.
Bring me compassion like the wings of a dove,
And grant to me the gift of unconditional love.

I light a white candle to bring honor to the Moon,
For healing and goodness and the Goddessā€™ boon.
Bring me protection and the versatility of all,
And grant your light never cast a pall.

I light a blue candle to bring the element of Water,
For clarity and calming in the face of a storm that must alter.
Bring me tranquility and help me to speak,
And help me my spirituality to seek.

I light a green candle to bring the element of Earth,
For healing and prosperity and all that theyā€™re worth.
Bring me good fortune and help me to share,
And help me to grow, with words and in prayer.

I like a purple candle for guidance and light,
For awareness and wisdom in all of itā€™s might.
Bright me consciousness and bring me positivity,
And share with me your light as I go through my activities.

I like a black candle for grounding and protection,
For balance and karmic restoration.
Bring me banishment from harm and negativity,
And protect me from curses and evil activity.

And then after each on Iā€™ll add a With Harm to None, So Mote it Be!

Today I meditated, in a circle with all the chakra colors around me in a circle and meditated to the Capricorn meditation on spells eight. Hereā€™s a pic of my meditation!Her is a pic of my sigil to believe in myself! I asked my deities to help assist me like Apollo he wards of evil. I created this little poetry I thought it would be nice. I gave him some herbal tea and he likes olive šŸ«’ oil. I also called in Brigid. And some others! Ow yeah letā€™s not go I used my charged moon water and dragons blood :drop_of_blood: for the incense.

Beautiful altar there @Jeannie1! And you learn by doing! Making little mistakes happen sometime but itā€™s the intent that matters. You did a fine job!

Iā€™m thinking of adding chants for Orange and Brown, itā€™s just that they didnā€™t have a mediation for me to get inspiration from. But I like orange candles, I use them a lot for success.

So Iā€™ve always been into candles and light 100 a day (it feels like) lol. But this night was differentā€™ I was listening to ā€œSeasons of the Moon and Flameā€ and I was in my new greenhouse (just got for Christmas :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:) and I was setting up for my Full Moon ritual and getting ready for Imbolc. I love just sitting with my plants doing yoga and listening to audiobooks (nerdy) I know ā€˜ but looking up onto the Full Moon well yā€™all know what Iā€™m saying. But when it was time to finish I couldnā€™t believe what happened. I went to put the fire out with my wooden spoon ā€˜ Every candle went out no problem except for which one? The Fiery RED One. I said out loud okā€™ Iā€™ll stay with you for a while ā€˜ I guess you want me to. And at that very moment I heard a laugh or giggle ā€˜ a very manly deep giggle. It at first startled me and I went out and looked around in the darkā€™ and nothing nobody around . At first I was a lil scared but then when I went back in with the plantsā€¦ ā€˜ the candle flame was out and smoke was going straight up to the Moon ā€˜ it looked like. Then I felt a sense of well somethingā€™ & I think that day has changed me a lil ā€˜ In a way it opened me up to so much and that passion will always be with me.
So Fireā€™ I Thank You for igniting something in me that is just unexplainable. :cupid:

Great job!

Iā€™ve discovered I have a strong affinity to Fire as well as Water, so I wanted to make a personal map of correspondences for Fire too! :smiley: :fire:

Iā€™ve been continuing working with Brighid, if you can call it that yet. I have an altar for her in my living room, the same one I used for my Imbolc ritual, and I have been giving her offerings. In return Iā€™ve been able to take a lot more practical steps in my shadow work and self improvementā€¦ facing those fears head on instead of just picking them apart in my head!

Alsoā€¦ one night I was feeling very tired and down, and I was writing a particularly self-deprecating message to my girlfriend, whenā€¦ just before I could hit send my computer lost power! I giggled out loud and gave Her my heartfelt thanks. How I was feeling right then could be compared to the feeling after a thunderstormā€¦ like the air itself was so much lighter and fresher! I took the opportunity to get into bed, and fell asleep almost instantly.

Yet another Fire discovery I might have missed if not for @MeganBā€¦ energy work with fire! Iā€™ve been feeling like Iā€™d like to look deeper into energy work and energy healing especially, like Iā€™m being called somehow. Iā€™d love to hear your recommendations if you have any! Feeling energy with my hands especially feels natural to me.

Okay, here comes something slightly sexual, just as a warning if youā€™d rather not read thatā€¦ :joy: My first girlfriend who also is a Cancer-Leo cusp, was often told she had magic fingers, and what that meant was that she could make people feel really good just touching wherever! Not necessarily where youā€™d expect. In a special, sensing kind of way, finding some really sensitive spots you had no idea were there. And from her I kinda learned it tooā€¦ or learned that I do that too? She was the first I could use that kind of touch on after allā€¦ :joy: Now, trying it on a candle flameā€¦ another fun lesson, the ā€œmagicā€ part in it was more literal than I thought! :grin:

Hooray for a Fire Correspondence chart, @CelestiaMoon! It is a delight to see :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :fire: And congrats on your developing bond with Brighid- it sounds like She is watching over you :blush: Thanks for sharing your fiery experiences!

For my challenge i did the red candle meditation. I invoked the spirit of fire alongside Brigid. ( I had to use a white candle because I thought i still had red candles . But when I went to start the challenge, i realized i was out)

I wrote on several pieces of paper all the things I wanted to banish from my life. Canā€™t remember how many i wrote down. However, there were plenty.
I burned the pieces of paper over my dollar store bought kettle, that has a long handle to hold on to, so you donā€™t get burned. After i finished burning all my pieces of paper, i flushed them down the toilet.
I meditated for awhile and concentrated on the visual flames and my candles.

Iā€™ve always been drawn to fire, and i think itā€™s my favorite elementht. Iā€™m a Leo :leo: sign so maybe that might be the reason as to why Iā€™m drawn to fire?! Even as a little kid i remember just having this fascinated with it. ( Of course nothing like a pyromaniac lol)

Question. Can you use fire to attract for what you want? Or is it only for banishing? Example can you burn the pieces of paper or bay leaves with intentions of what you want ? Iā€™m a little confused as how to work with the element.
(Thatā€™s my little assistant. She always lays on the couch next to me by the altar, while I do my spells or meditation @BryWisteria, can you give her a badge too? Lol)
Thank you all,
Blessed be

A very beautiful (and fiery!) ritual, @walter :fire::blush: Your strong connection with fire could definitely be enhanced by being a Leo, but it sounds like your attraction to this element goes even deeper than your horoscope- it sounds like an element where you are at home! :candle:

It looks like this was posted after the challenge closed, but I glanced at the time stamp and it looks like it was really, really close! I think you posted within an hour of the deadline. Since it is such a fantastic entry and you were so very close to the challenge, Iā€™m going to add you into the Props and Presents post. Fire is clearly your element- youā€™ve earned the badge (and your cute little assistant too! :dog:)! :raised_hands:

Different practitioners will likely have different opinions on this, but I believe that the elements are all very versatile.

Fire in particular is the heat of life and the warmth of the body- while also capable for destroying entire civilizations (I visited the volcano Vesuvius and the ruins of Pompeii- the lasting damage is life-changing to experience :astonished: )

As a force of creation and destruction, I say it is absolutely possible to use fire as a force of attraction! :fire: The key is in visualization- flames can burn things to ash, but a small spark can ignite a wish into being :+1:

@BryWisteria , thank you for the badge. I wasnā€™t sure I thought it had uploaded? But somehow stayed in the draft. I happened to come back to it and noticed it had not sent. (I was man, looks like I missed it now!) Therefore, I hit submit again. Thank you for accepting it! Jersey loves her badge too. Sheā€™s used to me cleansing her with incense, sage or whatever I have on hand. I think she feels comfortable sitting by me while Iā€™m doing a ritual or simply meditating.

Iā€™m also fascinated by Pompeii. Itā€™s amazes me how they were frozen in time by the pyroclastic blast. (Also can imagine their terror while it was happening! )

Thank you for the advice. I will be doing more fire magic now. I really enjoyed it!

Blessed be.

Walter,
I like how you decided to use the red candle. And how you used the toilet its like flushing the **** down the toilet.!! ā€œSo cleaverā€ indeed. I joked too, how I love fire, and I was a piro! One of my first spells, I did automatically & I knew in my heart that I could just burn something that bothered me not even knowing I was doing a banishing spell! I just watched the piece of paper burn in my heart too. I like to do banishing spells too! So it did come naturally. I am realizing that I am falling in love with all the elements. They all have there own uniqueness. Cute doggy she looks like a chuwawa but I am not sure what kind.
My son is a Leo too! Leos have a heart of gold, and they are loyal friends!
Thank you for sharing!!
Blessed be
Jeannie
