Many spell candles include crystal chips, herbs or a printed theme. From the maker: From candlelit dinners to eerie mood lighting, this set of Vampire Blood taper candles will entrance guests with their eye-catching, bleeding wax effect. Place these black and red candlesticks in an ornate candelabra for a truly bewitching display when the warm wax 'bleeds' down its sides. Size: approximately 25.5 x 9 x 4.5cm, weighing about 450g. Allow for small variations between batches. ## Traditions (belief, not health claims) Colour associations are traditional and vary between practices; for example green with abundance, pink with love, white with new beginnings and black with protection. Many practitioners time a candle to the moon, lighting it at the new moon for beginnings or the full moon for gratitude. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim. ## How to use - Rest it on a heat-proof plate or holder on a stable surface. - Trim the wick to around 5mm before lighting. - Burn it away from draughts, curtains, children and pets, and never leave it unattended. - If it contains crystal chips, retrieve them from the wax once cool. - Ventilation: a slightly open window keeps scent pleasant and smoke light. - Gifting idea: pair it with a matching crystal or a holder for a ready-made ritual gift. - Journalling idea: note the date, the moon phase and what you wished for, and look back a month later. ## Care - Store candles flat, somewhere cool and out of sunlight so the colour doesn't fade. ## Policies - Delivery: UK delivery £3.95, free over £40, 2–5 working days. UK addresses only. - Returns: You can cancel within 14 days of delivery under the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations; email hello@starseeduk.co.uk to arrange a return and we refund within 14 days of receiving it back. - Payment: Payment is by debit or credit card (and the wallets Shopify supports) through secure Shopify checkout. ## Questions and answers (19) ### What is the Set of 8 Vampire Blood Taper Candles used for?
