Description

Origin & Traditional Use

A candle holder holds a candle safely upright on the altar. In ritual the choice of holder matters, because a candle may burn for hours or over several nights. This one bears the triple moon and pentagram.

Uses in the Work

Use it to burn dressed and carved candles safely through a working, at the quarters, or on either side of a statue or sigil. Keep a holder dedicated to each kind of work, for example one for protection and one for love, so the energy is not mixed. Clean out the wax between workings and read the remains of the candle for messages about how the spell went. The triple moon makes it suited to lunar workings and to Hecate, Lilith and the dark goddesses.

Lore
