Fire 🔥 represents will, and power. The smoke represents its energy being released into the universe. Therefore, working with candles is ideal.
"It’s not that the candle does the magick for you, the candle serves as an external place to focus your intention and to direct that intention out into the world. If you don’t have your own personal sense of clarity in yourself and your intentions straight, the candle’s not going to help you,” says Naha Armády, the senior healer and teacher at House of Intuition in LA.
When working with candles, color holds much importance. In fact, Everything we deal with, has components that are symbolic subconsciously. Color psychology is a real thing! And, it is defined as;
the study of hues as a determinant of human behavior. Furthermore, Color influences perceptions that are not obvious, such as the taste of food. Colors have qualities that can cause certain emotions in people.
Now, let's get to the basics...

Purple
Known as the color of royalty, purple is aligned with the mystical arts. Want to improve your psychic power and open your third eye? I highly suggest burning a purple candle.
