Pagan Portals - Candle Magic A witch's guide to spells and rituals Lucya Starza Candle magic is something almost everyone has tried, even as a child – who hasn’t made a wish over a birthday cake? Candle spells are among the easiest yet also the most effective to perform. They are perfect for anyone who wants to have a go at casting a spell for the first time and for the solitary witch with a busy life. Yet candles are also an important part of modern pagan witchcraft rituals. They are used to mark the quarters of the circle, placed on the altar and can represent the changing seasons of the year. This book is aimed at all who want to use candle magic, from beginners to those experienced in the craft; with everything from simple castings to elaborate and beautiful ceremonies. It offers a background to candle magic as well as spells, rituals, divination techniques, meditations, a guide to making your own candles and more. Author Bio Lucya Starza is an eclectic witch living in London, England, in a rambling old house with her husband and cat. She writes A Bad Witches Blog at www.badwitch.co.uk and has contributed to Naming the Goddess, Essays in Contemporary Paganism and Paganism 101. Online: Author Website, Blog, Twitter Endorsements It would be easy to say this is a delightful little book for beginners – but Lucya Starza packs so much information into 25,000 words that it qualifies as a ‘must-have’ introduction to the fascinating subject of candle magic. I particularly like the down-to-earth, chatty approach that reads like a casual conversation around the kitchen table – by candle light, of course. Candle magic is one of the simplest, yet one of the oldest, most powerful forms of spell-casting and an essential addition to any witch’s toolbox of tricks.
