🔮 How To Choose Your Intention Ritual Candle

(By Serendipitous Wicks)

Choosing an intention candle isn’t just about color or scent — it’s about choosing a tool that resonates with you, your energy, and what you need in this moment. If you’ve ever stood in front of your altar or scrolled through our shop wondering “Which one is mine?”, this guide is for you.

Let me walk you through it step by step.

✨ Step 1: Pause and Tune In

Before you choose, take a deep breath. Close your eyes if it helps. Ask yourself:

🌙 What do I want to call in?

🌒 What do I feel ready to let go of?

Some examples:

• If you feel stuck, you might need rebirth and renewal.
• If your heart feels heavy, you might need self‑love and compassion.
• If you’re starting something new, you might need confidence and clarity.

Write down a word or two that feels right: calm, courage, love, growth, clarity.

 

✨ Step 2: Let the Intention Guide You

Now that you have your word(s), find the candle aligned to that energy:

• Rebirth & Renewal → Luna Moth Ritual Candle
• Self‑Love & Pride → Pride Intention Candle
• Grounding & Protection → Black or earthy‑toned candles with herbs like sage or cedar
• Prosperity → Green‑toned candle with cinnamon or basil

✨ Step 3: Notice What You’re Drawn To

If you feel called to a certain candle even if it doesn’t “match” your intention on paper — trust that. Your intuition always knows what energy you need, even if your mind doesn’t yet.

Sometimes people are drawn to the color of the wax, the shimmer of the mica, or the name. That pull is part of your ritual already beginning.

 

✨ Step 4: Consider the Ritual Ahead

Think about how you’ll use it:

🕯️ Will you light it nightly as a reminder of your intention?
🌕 Will you save it for the new or full moon?

🪷 Will it sit on your altar as an offering?

Choose the size and style that feels realistic and sacred for your practice.
