A 7-day candle is a tall unscented candle encased in a cylindrical glass container that is 2" to 2.2" in diameter and 8" tall. Religious 7-day candles often feature saints and symbols on the glass. Candles can be used in prayer, meditation, rituals, spiritual work or casting spells. Like any other candle work, you can enhance it by using herbs, essential oils, and crystals. Most people focus on one purpose at a time and light only one candle at a time. How to Use Multi-Colored 7 Day Candles The candles have 7 layers of different colors that typically follow the general candle color meanings. The 7 layers can be used in various ways that include: 7 Desires: You can layer your desires in one candle. Focus on one per day. Try to match your desire to the candle color meaning. 7 Prayers: This candle can assist you in focusing on seven different prayers. 7 Chakras: Working with the seven main chakras, you can meditate on each chakra center that coordinates with the candle color to open blocked chakras. There are numerous ways you can approach using a 7-day candle. One way is through visualization. Visualize what you want before lighting the candle. Are you going after a promotion? Perhaps you want to change jobs. Do you need to undertake special training, so you can qualify for a different career? Once your goal is defined and clarified in your visualization, repeat the entire visualization complete with actions, conversations, colors, time of day and every minute detail you can add. Continue to play this scenario over in your mind until you feel this pathway is established in your mind. Then it's time to light the appropriate candle. Choose the color that best represents your visualization. Focusing on the burning candle, replay the scenario of your visualization until you feel it has been set. Extinguish the flame and set the candle aside for three days before using it for a different desire.
