RED: 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 Red Candles

In daemonic traditions, particularly the Ars Goetia, red candles align with entities embodying Martial fire, passion, or dominance. These demons appreciate the color’s intensity as a tribute to their fierce natures, enhancing evocations for personal empowerment, protection, or desire fulfillment.

IDEA – this candle has already been charged, so there is really nothing else you need to do to the candle. However, if you want to take it a step further, here is another idea for getting a little closer into the energy of your spell or ritual.

Carve the demon’s sigil into the wax, anoint with corresponding oils (e.g., frankincense for invocation), and light the candle while reciting their enn (summoning chant) or offering red wine as libation. Focus on gratitude, visualizing the flame as their manifesting presence.

Here are tailored ideas for specific demons who thrive with red:

• Belial (King, Earth/Mars affinity): Honor Belial for independence and earthly dominion by burning the candle during a ritual of self-assertion. Place it on an altar with iron symbols (Mars’ metal), praising his role in breaking chains: “Belial, unbound lord, accept this flame as tribute to your sovereignty; grant me unyielding power.” Ideal for ambition spells, where the red light symbolizes destructive rebirth.
• Sitri (Prince, Venus/Mars blend): Use for lustful praise, lighting the candle to evoke his seductive energies. Surround with rose petals, intoning, “Sitri, enflamer of passions, I honor thee with this crimson fire; reveal desires and bind hearts.” This setup amplifies rituals for romantic conquests or self-confidence.
• Berith (Duke, Mars): Praise Berith’s warrior spirit in truth-revealing ceremonies. Burn the candle with blood-red offerings like pomegranate seeds, declaring, “Berith, golden-helmeted duke, I exalt thy Martial might through this flame; unveil honors and confrontations.” Perfect for gaining status or resolving conflicts.
• Marchosias (Marquis, Mars): Invoke his loyal, wolf-like ferocity for protection. Light the candle amid wolf imagery, chanting, “Marchosias, fierce guardian, receive my praise in this fiery glow; lend thy strength in battles unseen.” Use in defense workings or courage-building devotions.
• Astaroth (Duke, Venus/Mars): Honor her for passionate knowledge-seeking. Pair the candle with a mirror for revelations, praising, “Astaroth, veiled wisdom-bringer, I celebrate thy red passion; illuminate secrets and seduce truths.” Suited for divination or seductive enchantments.
• Lilith (Demon/Goddess, Venus/Mars influences): Red or black candles symbolize her fiery passion, blood rites, and nocturnal rebellion; use red for seduction/empowerment, black for shadow work or protection against oppression

For any demon listed in our Goetia color guides (like Furfur for stormy deceptions or Raum for chaotic love), the red candle acts as a universal honorarium—its flame a living prayer, fostering ongoing relationships through weekly devotions.

Other Goetia demons honoured with a Red Candle

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., passion, power, or transformation). Red candles, symbolizing fire, Mars, passion, courage, lust, strength, and aggressive manifestation, 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—red is frequently recommended for those with Martial (Mars) influences or themes of desire, war, or dominance.

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 red candle. I’ve included brief reasons for each, drawing from planetary links (Mars = red), ritual guides, and common practices. This is not exhaustive, as interpretations vary, but focuses on demons with documented red associations.

• Belial (King, associated with Earth/Mars): Red symbolizes his dominion over earthly power, independence, and destructive force; use for rituals of ambition or breaking chains.
• Sitri (Prince, Venus/Mars influences): Red enhances his lustful and passionate nature, ideal for love or seduction spells.
• Berith (Duke, Mars): Blood red for his warrior energy and ability to grant honors or reveal truths through confrontation.
• Botis (President/Earl, Mars): Orange-red for his prophetic and protective qualities, evoking Martial fire in divination rituals.
• Marax (Earl/President, Mars): Orange-red to amplify his astronomical and scholarly wisdom with assertive energy.
• Ipos (Earl/Prince, Mars): Blue-red blend, but red emphasizes his bold revelations of past/future and courage-granting powers.
• Glasya-Labolas (President/Earl, Mars): Orange-red for his violent, knowledge-imparting essence in rituals of learning through conflict.
• Ronove (Marquis/Earl, Mars): Purple-red to honor his rhetorical skills and demon-commanding authority with passionate invocation.
• Furfur (Earl, Mars): Pure red for his stormy, deceptive powers; use in weather magic or truth-extraction rites.
• Marchosias (Marquis, Mars): Fiery red to invoke his wolf-like ferocity and loyalty in protection or battle-oriented workings.
• Halphas (Earl, Mars): Red for his tower-building and war-inciting abilities, symbolizing construction through destruction.
• Raum (Earl, Mars): Red to fuel his thievery, city-destroying, and love-reconciling energies in chaotic or restorative spells.
• Alloces (Duke, Mars): Scarlet (a red variant) for his teaching of astronomy and liberal sciences with bold, warrior-like insight.
• Astaroth (Duke, Venus/Mars blend): Red (or red-blue) for passion in knowledge-seeking or seductive revelations.
• Gremory (Duke, Venus/Mars influences): Red to evoke passion in love-procuring or treasure-finding rituals.
• Bune (Duke, Mercury/Mars): Red for passionate pursuit of wealth, eloquence, and necromantic wisdom.

For general use, carve the demon’s sigil into the candle, anoint with corresponding oils (e.g., dragon’s blood for Mars demons), and light during evocation while reciting their enn or invocation. Always work in a protected circle, offer incense like frankincense, and state your petition clearly.

In Luciferian magic (which often incorporates Goetia for self-deification and enlightenment), red candles align with Lucifer’s rebellious fire—use for demons like Belial or Astaroth to invoke personal power, breaking limitations through passionate will. Pair with blood-red offerings or meditations on inner divinity.

What Colour for Satan?

In daemonic and Luciferian traditions, selecting a candle color to honor Satan is a deeply symbolic act, as his archetype encompasses rebellion, enlightenment, power, and individuality. Unlike the 72 demons of the Ars Goetia, Satan is a broader, multifaceted figure, often viewed as the Adversary, the Light-Bearer, or the embodiment of primal will across various occult paths (e.g., theistic Satanism, LaVeyan Satanism, Luciferianism). The choice of color depends on the practitioner’s intent, the aspect of Satan being invoked, and the tradition followed. Based on occult correspondences, practitioner resources, and symbolic associations, black and red are the most commonly recommended colors for Satan, with gold and purple as secondary options in specific contexts.

Red: Symbolizes passion, fire, primal energy, and Mars’ warrior spirit. Red captures Satan’s rebellious fire, his seductive allure, and his role as a catalyst for action and desire. It’s ideal for evoking his charismatic, commanding presence in rituals for empowerment, lust, or conquest. Red is widely accepted across Satanic paths for its visceral, life-affirming energy.

Red Candle (Passion and Power): Light a red candle to celebrate Satan’s fiery will and seductive energy. Surround with bloodstone or chili peppers, affirming, “Satan, fire of defiance, honor this red blaze; ignite my desires and strength.” Suited for empowerment or lust rituals, picturing crimson energy fueling your will. In Luciferian rites, use it for self-assertion, chanting, “By Satan’s red light, I seize my sovereign power.”

Empowerment Spell (Red Candle): For personal strength, carve Satan’s sigil and “power.” Anoint with dragon’s blood, chanting, “Satan, fire of will, ignite this red flame; grant unyielding strength.” Burn during visualization of conquest, scattering ashes in wind as homage. In Luciferian magic, this affirms self-sovereignty.

Mars (Primary for Red): Red evokes Mars’s warrior fire, perfect for Satan’s rebellion. Use on Tuesdays with (♂), anoint with dragon’s blood, invoking, “Mars, fiery lord, infuse this red flame with Satan; fuel defiance and desire.” Enhances empowerment or conquest spells.

Using in Demonic Luciferian Magic

In Luciferian paths, where self-empowerment, enlightenment, and rebellion against limitations are central, this candle becomes a profound ally for invoking Lucifer’s guidance in achieving desires through inner divinity. Charged at Black Witch Coven with demonic resonances, it aligns with Lucifer as the Light-Bearer, illuminating paths to forbidden knowledge and personal ascension.

Perform rituals in a dimly lit space, perhaps on a Wednesday (Mercury’s day for manifestation), with offerings like incense or wine.

• Invocation for Empowerment: Carve Lucifer’s sigil into the candle alongside your desire. Light it while reciting an evocation like, “Lucifer, Morningstar, grant me the wisdom and will to seize what I desire.” Use for rituals breaking societal chains, such as gaining forbidden skills or rising above oppression.
• Demonic Pact Alignment: Burn it during pact-making ceremonies, focusing on Luciferian self-deification—manifesting god-like control over your fate, like dominating a competitive field or attracting esoteric allies.
• Shadow Integration: In Luciferian shadow work, light it to “get” mastery over inner demons, transforming flaws into strengths (e.g., turning anger into assertive drive for career conquests).
• Wealth and Influence Rituals: Invoke Lucifer’s rebellious spirit for material gains, placing the candle on an altar with symbols of wealth (gold coins, serpents). Chant for desires like influential networks or luxurious living, emphasizing ethical self-interest.
• Love and Seduction in Luciferian Context: For romantic pursuits, use it to embody Lucifer’s charismatic allure, attracting partners who elevate your path—focus on mutual enlightenment rather than possession.
• Knowledge and Enlightenment Spells: Burn during study sessions or divinations, seeking Lucifer’s light to “get” hidden truths, such as arcane secrets or intellectual breakthroughs in fields like occult sciences.

Basic Black Magic Spells with Appropriate Spirits

In black magic, red candles fuel spells of command, passion, or reversal, often in conjunction with daemonic spirits for amplified results. A simple setup: Dress the candle with hot oils (chili or ginger), place it in a triangle of power (drawn with salt or chalk), and invoke a fitting spirit. Here’s a basic spell framework, adaptable for desires like binding, revenge, or attraction:

• Spell for Dominance and Success (with Belial or Marchosias): For overcoming obstacles, inscribe your goal on the candle (e.g., “Command respect at work”). Light it while calling the spirit: “By Belial’s fire [or Marchosias’ might], I summon thee to aid my conquest; let this red flame burn away barriers.” Visualize success as the wax melts, then bury remnants at a crossroads. This honors the spirit through active partnership, manifesting assertive outcomes.
• Lust or Binding Ritual (with Sitri or Astaroth): To ignite passion or bind a lover, anoint the candle with personal fluids or musk oil. Invoke Sitri: “Sitri, passion’s prince, join this rite; enflame [target’s name] with desire through thy red essence.” Burn a photo or hair in the flame, praising the spirit’s aid. Extinguish in honey for sweetness, honoring their seductive domain.
• Reversal or Protection Spell (with Furfur or Glasya-Labolas): Against enemies, carve curses into the candle. Light it invoking Furfur: “Furfur, storm-bringer, honor my call with this Martial blaze; reverse harms and deceive foes.” Let it burn fully, scattering ashes to the wind as tribute. This basic black magic honors the spirit’s chaotic fire, turning defense into offense.

Always end by thanking the spirit, offering the candle’s smoke as incense—ensuring ethical alignment to avoid backlash.

Connecting with Planetary Correspondences

Red’s primary link is to Mars, the planet of action, war, and vitality, making this candle a stellar tool for Tuesday rituals (Mars’ day) or during Mars’ astrological hours. To connect:

• Mars Invocation for Strength: Burn the candle on a Mars altar with red cloth, iron tools, and nettle herbs. Meditate on the flame, chanting, “Mars, red warrior, align thy force with mine; grant vigor and victory.” Use for spells needing bold energy, like career battles or physical endurance.
• Astrological Timing: During Mars retrograde or transits (e.g., Mars in Aries), light the candle to harness assertive vibes. Inscribe planetary symbols (♂) on the wax, focusing on manifestation: “By Mars’ crimson ray, I connect and command my fate.”
• Luciferian Planetary Fusion: In Luciferian paths, blend Mars’ red with Lucifer’s enlightening fire for self-deification. Light the candle during a full moon in Scorpio (Mars-ruled), affirming, “Lucifer, bearer of red light, unite with Mars’ might; illuminate my path to power.” This creates a planetary-daemonic synergy, honoring cosmic forces through the flame.
