Healing the Subconscious with Candle Magic
Are you ready to return to the self you were before the world convinced you to shrink? Candle magic isn't just "witch aesthetic." It is deep subconscious reprogramming disguised as fire and wax, an ancient technology for dissolving long rooted patterns in the psyche and the spirit.
Every one of us holds ancient power we've been trained to forget. The world teaches us to trade it for safety, to bury it under fear and routine but magic severs the spell of forgetting. Magic doesn't give you power. It reminds you that it was always yours.
The Night the Subconscious Spoke Back
Years ago, I did an uncrossing ritual for my mother. Halfway through the candle burn, the wax formed a demonic pig like face so precise it looked sculpted. Before anyone clutches pearls ... no, I didn't summon anyone. I witnessed a pattern revealing itself. That face symbolized a generational parasitic imprint.
During another ritual, I sat there and watched the flame carve a picture perfect image right before my eyes as if I were watching a master artist at work. Every stroke of light felt intentional, like creation itself was using the flame as its brush. I couldn't believe it!
When the candle finished its work, the energy released and her spirit felt lighter. I used to show photos of that ritual. Now I don't. Some workings lose power when turned into spectacle and some magic is not for public consumption. So yes, I removed those photos not out of fear, out of respect.
A few of my workings were so artistically precise that I did actually copyright the images, not to display them but to protect them. Some rituals become artifacts, and artifacts deserve guardianship, not exposure.
The Breakthrough That Changed Everything
Over time, I refined what I now call unconscious candle magic. The kind of ritual that reaches deeper than conscious intention. One night, during a clearing ritual for myself, I didn't just think about a pattern. I saw it. Yes, it was a vivid internal image and I saw exactly where it lived in my body. When the candle completed its burn, the pattern dissolved. The sensation afterward was weightlessness, relief and an exhale I didn't know I had been holding for years. That moment changed everything.
When I was being trained, my teachers drilled one truth into me ... magic only responds to the level of power you bring to it. Half-hearted intention does nothing. But when you give it all you've got ... when you execute with passion, body, mind, and spirit ... there is no limit to what can transform. This is why magic and psychotherapy work so well together. Magic retrieves what was shattered, and therapy helps you integrate what returns. Soul retrieval completes the cycle. This is the bridge my work sits on.
The Shadow Is Not the Enemy
Resistance doesn't only come from the mind. When we choose growth, something inside always pushes back. It can manifest as procrastination, trouble in paradise, emotional shutdown, sudden illness or your home engulfed in flames! Transformation is not comfortable. It is alchemical. But you are not fragile because you were built for evolution!

We don't heal by rejecting our pain.
We heal by bringing it back into the light.
“You do not have to live in the pain. Give yourself permission to heal. To grow. To live the kind of life you truly desire. For you are worthy. So, so worthy.” — Dominica Applegate
When You're Ready to Step into the Fire
If you feel the pull of this work, you're not imagining it. If you're reading these words and something in your chest flickered HELLO! That's your soul piece making itself known. Soul retrieval is the next step for those who are ready to reclaim themselves and not just emotionally or mentally, but energetically and spiritually. Your magic is not lost. It's simply waiting for you to remember where you left it.
If you're ready to restore your power and call your missing pieces home...
