How To Use A White Candle For Protection

In this post, we will be discussing how you can use a white candle for protection. We all need protection from negative energy from time to time, especially if you are a spiritual person.

How To Tell If You Need Protection

It doesn't hurt to protect yourself anyway, but I am going to give you some sure fire tips on how to tell if you need protection. If you experience any of the following things, it indicates that you need protection:

• Feeling someone watching you/staring at you
• Feeling bad feelings in the pit of your stomach when around a certain person
• Nightmares
• Evil visions before falling asleep or at any time
• Bad luck/small accidents

Like I said, it doesn't hurt to protect yourself anyway. You can do protection rituals regardless of whether or not you experience these things. I just wanted to let you know what may indicate that you have a negative entity problem.

Now onto the protection.

Which White Candle To Use

It doesn't matter what size the candle is, as long as it is a pure white candle. It's also okay to get a scented or non scented candle. The only thing that matters is the color of the candle which is white. There are some candles that are an "off white" color such as cream. But do your best to not get one of those.

If you need to do this quickly, then get a smaller candle. A tealight candle would even be fine if you are in a pinch. If you want to spend a longer time on this, then get a bigger candle. But just remember we are letting the candle burn out completely, so keep that in mind when picking the size.

Step 1

Get a sharp object and write your name on the candle. You aren't using an ink pen. You are just carving your name into the side of the candle. This is to let the universe know that the protection energy is for you. It'll be kinda hard to see the name, but what matters is the intention.

Step 2

Use proper candle safety. Never leave a burning candle alone. Always stay in the room with the candle while it's lit. Place the candle on a stable surface, away from all objects. You don't want the candle near any paper or fabric especially. Keep everything away from the candle except for the candle holder.

Step 3

Once you have figured out where you are going to put the candle and everything, go ahead and hold the candle in your hand. Say a prayer of protection, and state your intentions to protect yourself from bad energy or negative energy.

Step 4

Light the candle.

Step 5

Let the candle burn until it stops burning on it's own. Again, if you need to do this quickly, get a smaller candle. If you want a longer session, get a bigger candle.

But just remember that large candles can and will burn for hours. So if you do not have hours, don't get the bigger candle. I recommend a candle that is no more than an inch tall. You can find tealight candles that burn pretty quickly.

Step 6

Once the candle has burned out, discard of the candle and take a salt bath. You can use Himalayan salt or epsom salt for your bath. Stay in the warm salt bath for at least 20 minutes. This cleanses your aura of all negative energy.

And you are done. That's how you use a white candle for protection.
