I just think of the 16th century Northern European witch-just imagining her life and how she would practice, since we don’t really know. I can tell you this about her, though. She did not have much money. In my head, she is alone, which means she may even be all the poorer. She does not have a special blessed besom for her witchy work and another one for actual sweeping. She just has a broom. For everything. Same with her knife and her cup and all the things. It’s all special. Candles. Did you know that candles were a taxed item in 16th and 17th century England? You might have had, a beef tallow candle, one at a time,, and that’s it. Candle magic is fascinating. But most likely there was No candle magic back then, at least not the way we practice it, unless you were a very, very wealthy witch. No special candle burning down to nothing. When I get excited about buying all the witchy things, I think about my spiritual ancestors, who would have had no choice but to make do and make magic with what they already had.
Yes! That was a lovely read, I really enjoyed that! I totally agree back then they had to make do with what they had, I love candle magick too it's really neat. It's wonderful how we can learn from past spiritual practitioners and bring it into the present time, hence why I made this video. You don't need everything, it's perfectly okay to buy stuff new and online, I know I do. But it's not required and to use a bit of ingenuity and creativity is what those who practiced did in the past. 🥰
If I can add a little tip to the part about using all of the candles...I save the ends of the candles from spell work in a small jar until I have several. I used to reuse them and make another candle (ie, save all the abundance ones and make an abundance candle.) Now I add oils and herbs and put them either in a wax burner or just place the entire thing on an electric candle warmer. I have also used the wax to "color" tea lights, just melt the wax and pour a little onto the tea light. I have tried to melt the tealights and add the wax but there's not enough room to stir, lol.
Thank you for sharing your tips:) Especially on the biodegradable spells:) Im a newbie.
Of course! I'm glad you like my video, thank you for watching. Yes, biodegradable spells are great, I use them alot. ☺️

That is a brilliant idea! I'll have to try that, thank you for sharing. 🥰

Oh yay that's awesome! I love jars and bottles, their so useful! 🥰
