Tealight Candle Spell

All-Purpose Tealight Candle Spell, from Cottage Witchery by Ellen Dugan

Write your request on a small piece of paper, fold it up and tuck it neatly under the candle in the metal cup and add a pinch of the corresponding herb and replace the tealight.

"Tealight candle burning warm and bright,
Lend your magick to me on this night.
Herbs and spices ass strength and magickal power.
Goddess, bless my work in this enchanted hour."

Let the tealight burn all the way down, you will notice when the candle is finished burning that your paper and the herbs will be sealed to the bottom of the cup and covered in wax.  You spell is safely sealed.

I love this idea! It's beautiful, so simple but powerful. Thank you KJ.

You're welcome Autumn!  I was very happy to come across it!  I just love Ellen Dugan's Cottage Witchery book!  Another good thing about tealight magick is that tealights are so inexpensive for those of us who don't have a lot of money to spend.  You can get a 12 pack for $0.99, a 50 pack for $2.99 and a 100 pack for $5.99 and they always seem to go on sale!  I just picked up a 50 pack the other day and only paid $1.94 after tax!

Yup, even I am rich enough to have tealights. I got 12 for $1 just like you said! I'm really trying to figure out which herb to use. What do you do with it once it's done?

I love the sound of that book, that's totally going in my wish book!

You know, I keep my book Earth Power by Scott Cunningham close by because he has a great herb correspondence chart in the back that I use to go by for a spell.

As far as what to do with the candle after the spell is done..... you could dispose of it in a bonfire or fireplace.  Or throw it away and leave an offering.....something along those lines.  I have also heard of planting them in the ground as well.

Earth Power! That sounds awesome too. My wish list is getting pretty long, I guess it's time to do some prosperity magick. I better see if I have some prosperity herbs and then I'll do the tealight candle spell for it.

Well, I kida lucked out with the Half Price Books stores all around the Dallas area.  They are a chain that is all around the country, but most states only have one or 2... I have like 5 or 6 around me....anyway, they always have a great Pagan selection for half price!

KJ, I would have totally cleaned them out too! I love books and witchy books are the best!

Would it be OK if I post this info on this type of spell in my Sylvia group? We light candles for people all the time and this would really help add some extra power. I know they would love it. I would send a link back to you and this group of course!

I did this spell for my friend Judith who just lost her husband, here's my rendition:

Peace & Healing Tealight Candle Spell for Judith



I put together this tealight candle spell for Judith, thanks to the info I got from my friend KJ. I did some research into peace and healing magick and decided to use blue ink on white paper to write my petition. I added a peace rune, folded it and covered it with a rose petal and some lavender. I was amazed it fit under the candle just fine. Then I said:

Tealight candle burning warm and bright
Lend me your magick might
Herbs and spices add strength and power
Goddess, bless my work in this enchanted hour

It's a little different words wise but still works. It's quite beautiful, I can watch the flame where I am right now. I continue to send out that healing energy to Judith.

You can use any of the following herbs & flowers:

* Aloe
* Angelica
* Cardamon pods
* Chamomile
* Cloves
* Coltfoot
* Coriander
* Dulse
* Eryngo
* Lavender
* Loosestrife
* Myrtle
* Passion Flower
* Pennyroyal
* Peppermint
* Red Rose Buds and Petals
* Rosemary
* Sage
* Skullcap Cut
* Vervain

Great Autumn!   Isn't it interesting how the paper and herbs end up in the middle of the candle?  I just love tealight candle spells!

Yes KJ, it ends up being this super pretty collage! I took a picture of it. I will post it later. I know of another woman who did the spell with me. In the container for the tealight including it's base, she had a little container of water with a crystal in it for additional energy! I love that!
