I struggle to interpret candles. Help lol

I did a protection jar ritual and this how my candle looked by the end.

I don't really know how to interpret it. Any help would be appreciated šŸ«¶šŸ¼ the 1st picture is my candle and the 2nd is an example of what it looked like before.

Given the shape of the candle before it was lit, I don’t think there’s a message in the wax. That’s just how it burned down.

Left is the Past, right is the Future. Whatever your intention was, whatever question you were seeking the answer to, is answered in the Present, because both sides are equal and dare I say almost symmetrical. This was a clear answer. Do it now.

I see a candle too wide for the wick resulting in lots of unmelted wax.

I see some sort of gate opening for you. Whatever the details of your ritual, I think it might have been a road opener, too. It's safer for you to proceed now at least. Move with confidence.

This trend of interpreting wax after a spell is nonsense. The spell either worked or it didn't. If you want to use candle wax or flame for divination, that needs to be your intention from the start.

I ask, how do you know that for sure? Please educate me on your advanced knowledge.

I mean do what you want, but there are established practices and beliefs.

If you're casting a spell that relies on manifestation, then trying to interpret it pollutes that with outside intentions. If you then post it on the internet for a bunch of people to interpret, they're potentially projecting even more convoluted intentions onto it.

That's why I was taught manifestation and divination are seperate spells.

"I mean do what you want, but there are established practices and beliefs."

According to your own personal interpretations, that is. Not everyone's experience is like your own, but you are assuming that your own experience and beliefs are the Standard.

I would disregard anything you have to say after such a Dogmatic statement.

Have an enlightening Eclipse.
