Taper Candle BLACK

Origin & Traditional Use

A plain black taper candle for ritual and spellwork. Black is the colour of absorption, banishing and the deep unseen, so black tapers are a staple of every working altar.

Uses in the Work

Use black tapers to banish, protect, break hexes, end bonds and work with darker spirits. Carve a name or symbol into the wax, dress it with an oil that matches your intention, and burn it during your working. Tapers also make good altar lights for demonic and Left Hand Path ritual.

Pairs Well With

Banishing, Uncrossing or Hexing oils, a taper candle holder and black salt.

Lore

In older folk practice, a black candle was burned to absorb illness or bad luck from a person, then disposed of away from the home.
