Connecting with your spirit guides through a candle lighting ritual can be a beautiful and personal experience.
Here’s a simple guide to help you create a sacred space and intention:
1. Gather Your Materials.
2. A candle (choose a color that resonates with you or your intention white for purity, purple for spirituality, blue for tranquility, etc.)
3. A lighter or matches.
4. A quiet space where you won’t be disturbed.
5. Optional: Incense, essential oils, perfume, nzu edo, crystals or other items that help you feel connected to the spiritual realm.
6. Cleanse Your Space:
Before you begin, take a moment to cleanse your chosen space. You can do this by physically tidying up, or by smudging with uduko, sage or palo santo.
7. Set Your Intention:
Take a few deep breaths and center yourself. Clearly state your intention aloud or in your mind. For example: “Ora mmụọ, I intend to open myself to communication with my benevolent spirit guides, to receive their wisdom, guidance and love.”
8. Light the Candle:
With your intention firm in your mind, light the candle. As the flame ignites, visualize it as a beacon, sending your intention out to the spiritual realm and drawing your guides closer.
9. Connect and Meditate:
Gaze at the candle flame. Allow your mind to quiet. You might offer a silent prayer or a spoken invocation to your guides. For example: “Chi m and other spirit guides, I invite your presence. I am open to your messages. Please make yourselves known to me in ways I can understand.”
10. Sit in quiet meditation for as long as feels right. Pay attention to any sensations, thoughts, images or feelings that arise. These could be subtle signs from your guides. Don’t force anything; simply be open and receptive.
11. Express Gratitude:
When you feel the connection has been made, or when you are ready to conclude the ritual, express your heartfelt gratitude to your spirit guides for their presence and guidance.
12. Extinguish the Candle:
You can let the candle burn down completely if it’s safe to do so or you can gently extinguish it. Some traditions suggest pinching the wick or using a snuffer rather than blowing it out. This is to preserve the energy you’ve invoked.
Tip: Remember, consistency and sincerity are key. The more you practice, the stronger your connection with your spirit guides will become.
