Magenta: Candle Colours and Their Meaning.
(short pause) In candle magick, the color of a candle is thought to influence the energy and intention of a ritual. Magenta, dark pink, and hot pink candles are considered especially effective, as they combine the gentle energy of pink with increased passion and vibrancy.
Historically, magenta and deep pink candles have been used in rituals to encourage both love and transformation. In certain traditions, these colors were chosen for spring festivals to mark renewal and the beginning of new relationships. (pause)
Magenta, dark pink, and hot pink candles are believed to amplify the compassionate qualities of pink. While light pink is often linked to tenderness and friendship, deeper pinks are associated with passion, desire, and dynamic attraction.
For instance, a practitioner may select a hot pink candle for a spell intended to increase self-confidence before a romantic meeting, or to bring renewed excitement to an existing relationship. (short pause) Dark pink candles are frequently used in rituals that focus on sexuality, flirtation, and sexual confidence.
To attract a lover, particularly a female lover, some practitioners anoint a dark pink or magenta candle with rose or jasmine oil and place it on an altar with symbols of Venus or Aphrodite. The candle is then burned while affirmations or intentions related to love and attraction are spoken.
When choosing a candle for a ritual, it may be helpful to consider both the specific shade and the intended purpose. Magenta is often selected for transformation and spiritual love, hot pink for bold attraction and confidence, and dark pink for deepening intimacy and sensuality. Selecting a candle that aligns with the desired outcome, and using natural waxes and dyes when possible, is thought to support the ritual’s energy.
By understanding the historical context and energetic associations of magenta, dark pink, and hot pink candles, practitioners may be able to create more focused and effective rituals, drawing on established traditions to enhance their magickal work.
