Review:

"Although we know that fire was discovered in prehistoric times, the candle as we know it did not exist until about 1200. As Patricia Telesco (A Charmed Life; Wicca 2000) avers in Exploring Candle Magick: Candle Spells, Charms, Rituals, and Divinations, candles have always had a ritualistic component, and because they have so long been part of everyday life, the idea of using them as amulets, charms and magical devices is an accessible one. Written expressly for those who believe in magic, her book examines the topic in full from making candles to using them ritualistically and even uncovers the relationship between candle magic and feng shui." --Publishers Weekly, Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information, Inc.
