Table of Candle's Color
Correspondence
The following is a quite
comprehensive list of candle colors and their correspondence.
If you are a beginner, this will make a good guide for you.
However, remember that these means are according to the
authors of the books consulted though. These can vary between
individuals. Therefore, I suggest you that you experiment on
your own. Take one color at the time, look at it, and write
down on your Book of Shadows what that color means to you. In
this way, you will develope your own candle color
correspondence.
