What can candles offer us?

Candles symbolize happiness and safety. They usher in light and hope, perceived universally as good omens. Before the advent of electricity, they banished darkness and warded off malevolent spirits. They have accompanied religious and holiday ceremonies, representing one of the four elements.

In the past, they were regularly used in magical rituals, but today they are mainly procured for decorative or aromatherapeutic purposes. Yet, an increasing number of individuals are focusing on the color of the candles, which, it turns out, isn't arbitrary. Each color conveys a different meaning, enabling us to select them based on our specific requirements.

What does a candle's color signify?

Lighting a candle of a certain color can have a significant impact on our lives.

  1. The white color embodies harmony and inner peace. It fosters balance in your life, empowering you to regain control promptly.
  2. The green color symbolizes wealth. It can help improve our monetary standing. When lit at work, it can promote focus on professional objectives.
  3. Pink caters to those seeking profound love. It stimulates emotions and fortifies intimate bonds between partners.
  4. The silver candle suits dreamers with their heads in the clouds. It encourages them to pursue rather than merely fantasize about their desires.
  5. Yellow or gold ushers in prosperity at home and offers protection to all its dwellers from misfortunes.

Is aromatherapy possible with candles?

Aromatherapy is a type of alternative medicine that incorporates elements of herbalism and natural remedies. It harnesses the power of essential oils derived from plants. These oils are typically extracted from flowers, leaves, or stems. As such, candles that marry fragrance with function serve as a practical solution.

They not only enhance our mood but also assist in relaxation and relieving mental tension such as stress. Intriguingly, they also impact physical well-being, as they can mitigate bodily discomforts. It's noteworthy that aromatherapy candles can energize us and boost our daily performance.
