Colour Correspondances
Again from the Broom Closet web site
**************************
You can get coloured candles from the New Moon Occult Shop website. I recommend contacting them directly and asking for help finding just what you need as often they will source things they don't usually carry in stock. They've helped me find candles for spells.
WHITE: Ruled by the moon. A pastel combination of all colors. Reflects
light with little absorption.
Represents purity, spirituality and peace. Whenever in doubt, use white,
which is the most highly
balanced form of spirituality possible. White contains virtues in their
highest form, and is therefore very
protective. Used to repel destructive energies; to raise vibrations; to
heal emotions, births, rapes, children
and pets. Also used to build purity, balance the aura, confound enemies,
create illusions and contact spirit
helpers.
BLACK: Ruled by Saturn. An intense concentration of all colors. Black
absorbs light and reflects very
little. It is not the absence of color, but rather the absence of color
reflection. A receptacle for all that you
do not need or want. Used to absorb or remove anything; to end something;
to remove or encase
undesirable energies; to break up a blocked or stagnant situation.
PINK: Ruled by Venus. A lighter shade of red, pink deals with a spiritual,
emotional love rather than the
physical form. Represents unconditional love that comes from the heart.
Associated with romantic love
without the sexual connotation, affection and friendship. Purest form of
love, raises vibrations. Used to
banish lower vibrations and hate.
ORANGE: Ruled by the Sun, Mars, Mercury. A combination of yellow
(Mercury/mental agility) and red
(Mars/action-energy), allows the actions of red and the intelligence of
yellow to understand how to use
this action. The agressiveness of red is toned with the healing of yellow.
Used for prosperity, energy
building, attracts others in a positive way, attracts success, good luck
and fortune. Builds vitality, energy
and stamina.
YELLOW: Ruled by Mercury. Color of the intellect, the powers of the
creative imagination, memory,
swiftness, accuracy, communication and mental agility. Used to obtain
knowledge; to learn swiftly; to gain
insight into problems. Yellow represents all situations of learning. Alters
dark mental mood swings.
Enhances the knowledge of healing, the ability to concentrate, and the
retention of memory. Yellow has a
warm, compelling energy and therefore attracts people and can also be used
to compel another to do your
bidding.
BROWN: Ruled by Saturn (dark brown). Earth energy. Balanced combination of
red, yellow and blue.
Used to acquire basic material needs for survival; to learn to ground and
center your consciousness with
the earth; to obtain money by working; to communicate with trees and
communicate with their
intelligence.
GRAY: Ruled by the moon. Used to meutralize anything that no longer serves
your best interest. It is a
perfect balance of black and white, therefore absorbs and repels. Draws in
the undesirable energies and
sends them out to the universe for dispersal as neither destructive or
constructive properties. Used to
erase, cancel, neutralize and return to the universe without repercussion.

soothes and cools. Gives peace from
