The practice
What this shop’s tradition does with an object like this. It is how it is used, not a promise about what follows.
- RedForce and heat — love that is asked for plainly, and work that needs to move now.
- TuesdayMars’s day — worked for courage, cutting, and standing your ground.
- The moonGuarding work suits a waxing moon; taking something off suits a waning one, between full and new.
How it is used
- 1Say plainly what it is for. One thing, out loud, before anything is lit — a candle set for four purposes is set for none.
- 2Dress it: anoint with oil and, if you have one, a pinch of powder or herb on top of the wax.
- 3Set it somewhere level, away from a draft, where it can burn unbroken for the seven days.
- 4Leave it alone. It is working; watching it is not part of the work.
Waxing moon to draw something toward you; waning to send it away.
What people get wrong
- Blowing it out. The tradition snuffs a candle rather than blowing on it — breath is yours, and the flame is not.
- Over-dressing. Too much oil drowns the wick, and a candle that gutters out on day two is a candle you have to start again.
- Moving it once it is lit. Set it where it will finish.
Reading the glass afterwards
- Clean glass, steady flame, wax gone
- Read as a working that met nothing in its way.
- Black soot up one side
- Read as resistance — traditionally taken as a sign to clear before setting another.
- Soot at the top only
- Usually just the wick catching up at the start. Read as nothing much.
- Wax left in the bottom
- Read as work unfinished — many practitioners set a second candle rather than relight this one.
- The glass cracks
- Read as force taken by the glass instead of by you. It is also what happens when a candle burns in a draft, and the tradition says to check that first.
- Flame high and loud, then low
- Read as a fast start against something slower underneath.
This is what the tradition looks for, not a diagnosis. A wick sits off-centre, a draft moves a flame, and glass is uneven — most of what a candle does, it does for ordinary reasons.
