Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2004

Make Your Won Enchanted Candles and Make Your Dreams Come True!

For centuries, Pagan seekers of Love, fortune, health, healing, and protection have used candles as a virtual part of their rituals. That’s why Wiccan expert and practitioner Lady Rhea began creating enchanted candles over twenty years ago- each of them hand carved, encased in glass, and embellished with seals, oils, and other decorations.

Now, to show you how to create your very own enchanted candles at home, Lady Rhea has written a book based on her underground classic of the same name-designed to meet your specific needs and personalized by your won guiding spirit. Using the powers of fragrance, color, shape, exotic oils, and fire, these candles are the perfect vessels to send your spells and wishes out into the astral realm. Lady Rhea shows you:

* The best colors and magical oils to sue to promote your spell * How to create your own personal alter or other sacred space * Why it’s crucial to be clear about why you want when casting a spell * How to work with astrology, without letting the planets rule you * Plus 50 illustrations of unique seals you can carve into your candles-each accompanied by its own spell and directions for how to make it work.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book, August 14, 2004

I love this book. I had a plastic bound copy of it several years ago and somehow lost it. I was overjoyed to see that it was being reprinted. It is even better than the original and the new seals look great.
I have done two candles, just the candles, not even the full spells (she does say that's an option) and the results were strong and fast. I reccomend this to anyone who wants an effective form of magick.

Don't be put off by carving designs into the candles. Some are very easy and I'm no great artist myself but they worked. I did not use glitter, didn't have it available but they still worked. I didn't have the glass pullout candles, so I used 1" by 9" jumbo candles. They worked.

If you want results, this is the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars An AMAZING book that transcends all magick, October 8, 2004

By 

Buffy Lover (NYC , New York United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Enchanted Candle: Crafting and Casting Magickal Light (Paperback)

This book is clearly not only the best and most informative book on the craft that I have EVER read, but it also presents it in such a way that it is actually understandable, and just well - AMAZING!!!! This is a vital tool for any witch who wants to make a positive difference in their life. The whole concept of astral and physical realms and HOW the magick actually works are finally explained in a non-vague way. It helps the reader understand the fundamental concepts of the craft without confusing them or overwhelming them with all different traditions. This is a MUST have for any one beginning their jouney with magick or anyone who believes they can truly make a positive difference in their lives through the use of self actualization and magick. The spells portion of the book are readily presented and laid out and it's very easy to achieve success with them.

I love Lady Rhea's new book! I'm so glad it has gone mainstream. It's about time! I really like the added sigils and information. I am looking forward to another book by her as well.
She is a very knowledgable and super nice lady. We were so happy to have her come and do an Enchanted Candle class at our shop Mystic Spirit Metaphysical Shoppe in Montclair, NJ. She really knows her stuff.
I highly reccommend this book for all magickal practitioners.
