Re -Use of candles!?

I wouldn't have a problem doing so 🙂

But then I pay little heed to what books tell me I should or shouldn't do!
So...you do what feels right.

The simple answer to that question is NO....

Mainly because I would dedicate the candle for a specific purpose/ prayer and then let the candle burn out.....

Also, I use bees-wax candles for ritual use and they burn down quite quickly.

However, the candles that I use in my daily rituals are replaced when they need to be. So those I reuse.

Thanks guys, Iv found both your answers very helpful. 😀

I think a re-use it could make muddled / muddied magick :), although I am not a practicing Wiccan :rolleyes:.

I tried re-melting and making new out of the old...but could find candles around at reasonabel cost so didnt think it worth the messing....
If you find you have to much candle for purpose, could tee lights do the trick...

Ive sometimes used plain white tee lights candles, but used a variety of coloured holders to intend the purpose ..... just an idea 😉

Hi Fleur,

Must admit, when I said re-use. I mean't re-lit...and then replace with new when the old ones burn out.....:)

You are very welcome Wind wisperer 🙂

What Iactually was meaning by my Q was can I re-use my representation candles...as I plan to use three for the three stages of the Goddess, so all your answers have been helpful!! So combining everybodies advice Ithink I will re-use, bless and cleanse my dedication ritual candles each time and burn out my ritual/magical purpose candles or like Fleur said, perhaps use T lights for this purpose!! Thanks peeps, great brain storming there...lol 😉 xx
