PURPLE: Charged Ritual Candle

Meticulously charged by experienced practitioners at Black Witch Coven, this potent 7-inch candle is anointed with sacred oils, inscribed with ancient Theban script for amplified intent, and infused with powerful energies to act as a beacon for your ambitions.

With a burn time of approximately 1 inch per hour (lasting 6-8 hours total), it’s designed for concise, impactful rituals that fit seamlessly into your daily practice. Remember, you don’t have to burn all of the candle at once. Depending on what you’re doing magically, you can burn the candle inch by inch over a series of days for another powerful way to do a candle spell.

Praising Demons Honored with Purple Candles

In the Ars Goetia (the first section of the Lesser Key of Solomon), the 72 demons are often honored through rituals involving specific correspondences, including candle colors tied to their planetary associations, elemental affinities, or thematic energies (e.g., psychic power, spirituality, ambition, or hidden wisdom). Purple candles, symbolizing spirit, Jupiter/Saturn blends, intuition, royalty, psychic insight, and transcendent power, are commonly used for demons aligned with these qualities. While not all demons have rigid color requirements—practitioners may adapt based on intuition or tradition—purple is frequently recommended for those with Jovian (Jupiter) influences for spiritual expansion and authority, or Saturnine/Venusian ties for mystery, psychic development, and elevated consciousness.

Based on occult correspondences from sources like Golden Dawn systems, demonolatry guides, and practitioner resources, the following Goetia demons can be effectively honored with a purple candle. I’ve included brief reasons for each, drawing from planetary links (Jupiter/Saturn = purple), ritual guides, and common practices. This is not exhaustive, as interpretations vary, but focuses on demons with documented purple associations.

• Beleth (King, Jupiter/Saturn blend): Purple evokes his regal command and love-inciting powers; use for rituals of spiritual authority or psychic bonding.
• Leraje (Marquis, Jupiter/Mars): Purple enhances his arrow-wounding and conflict-causing energies, symbolizing ambitious psychic warfare.
• Eligos (Duke, Jupiter/Venus): Purple for his war-foretelling and favor-granting, fostering intuitive leadership and diplomatic insight.
• Zepar (Duke, Jupiter/Venus): Purple to invoke his love-inducing and barren-making abilities, representing spiritual control over desires and fertility.
• Botis (President/Earl, Jupiter/Saturn): Purple amplifies his prophetic and reconciliatory wisdom, ideal for psychic revelations or harmonious bindings.
• Bathin (Duke, Jupiter): Purple for his swift travel and herbal knowledge, evoking transcendent journeys through mystical realms.
• Sallos (Duke, Jupiter/Venus): Purple honors his peace-bringing and love-kindling, suited for spiritual harmony in relationships.
• Purson (King, Jupiter/Sun): Purple represents his treasure-revealing and past/future knowledge, aiding in royal psychic divinations.
• Marax (Earl/President, Jupiter): Purple to amplify his astronomical and scholarly teachings, for elevated intellectual and spiritual pursuits.
• Ipos (Earl/Prince, Jupiter): Purple emphasizes his bold revelations and courage-granting, symbolizing ambitious enlightenment.
• Naberius (Marquis, Jupiter): Purple for his rhetorical eloquence and nobility-restoring, enhancing spiritual persuasion and dignity.
• Ronove (Marquis/Earl, Jupiter/Mercury): Purple to honor his demon-commanding and artistic skills, for psychic mastery over influences.
• Forneus (Marquis, Jupiter): Purple evokes his linguistic teachings and sea-monster affinity, ideal for deep, intuitive communication rituals.

For general use, carve the demon’s sigil into the candle, anoint with corresponding oils (e.g., mugwort for Jupiter demons), and light during evocation while reciting their enn or invocation. Always work in a protected circle, offer incense like copal, and state your petition clearly—purple candles excel in twilight settings to heighten psychic vibrations.

In Luciferian magic (which often incorporates Goetia for self-deification and enlightenment), purple candles align with Lucifer’s violet crown of divine intellect—use for demons like Purson or Ipos to invoke spiritual ascension, embracing purple as the color of the third eye for breaking veils of illusion. Pair with amethyst offerings or meditations on cosmic sovereignty.

Connecting Purple with Other Planetary Correspondences

Purple’s majestic, mystical vibration bridges material and spiritual realms in occult systems, primarily linked to Jupiter (royalty, expansion, higher wisdom) and Saturn (mystery, discipline, karmic depth), with Venusian undertones for beauty and intuition. Elementally, it resonates with Spirit or Ether, promoting psychic elevation and transcendent unity. These associations make purple candles powerful for aligning demonic rituals with astrological cycles, such as Thursday (Jupiter’s day), Saturday (Saturn’s), or during Sagittarius/Pisces transits for visionary work. Here’s how to integrate purple with key planetary correspondences:

• Jupiter (Primary Link): Purple captures Jupiter’s royal benevolence, ideal for demons like Stolas or Vapula in spells for abundance or gnosis. Light the candle during Jupiter’s hour (Thursday), inscribing the symbol (♃). Anoint with frankincense oil, invoking, “Jupiter, expander of realms, align thy purple majesty with [demon’s name]; bestow spiritual growth and wise authority.” This amplifies demonic teachings or protective expansions in Luciferian paths where Jupiter fuels divine kingship.
• Saturn (Strong Affinity): Purple’s deeper shades evoke Saturn’s karmic mysteries, suiting demons involved in bindings or longevity. Burn on Saturdays, with lead or bone accents, affirming, “Saturn, chronos of veils, infuse this purple flame with endurance; aid [demon’s name] in my shadow ascents.” In black magic, this synergy supports hexes or ancestral work, while theurgists use it for alchemical transcendence.
• Venus (Harmonic Blend): Purple aligns with Venus’s spiritual beauty for love or harmony, enhancing demons like Zepar or Sallos. Use on Fridays, with rose quartz, petitioning, “Venus, enchantress of depths, connect thy purple allure to [demon’s name]; weave psychic bonds and elevated desires.” This supports romantic divinations or artistic magic, resonating with Luciferian themes of beauty as enlightened power.
• Spirit/Ether Element (Core Correspondence): Purple’s ethereal quality ties to higher chakras or Akasha, amplifying spiritual demons. Place the candle at the altar’s center with quartz, chanting, “Ether of unity, carry purple’s vision to [demon’s name]; unveil transcendent truths.” This fosters astral travel or invocation rituals, grounding demonology or theurgic evocations in cosmic intuition.

By syncing purple with these correspondences, your rituals achieve elevated potency—use amethyst (purple stone for Jupiter/Saturn) or time to Aquarius transits for innovative spirituality. Journal visions to refine your craft, viewing purple as a royal bridge to divine mysteries.
