Your Spirit Animal for 2027 and Its Message for You
Your birth spirit animal never changes. But in 2027, another animal is reaching out to you: what it brings you this year, and why this one.
The Spiritual Explanation On Why You Should Never Blow A Candle Out
Candles have a very strong power and influence in many rituals, especially when it comes to black, red or white magic. If flames have a reputation for being able to soothe souls and chase away evil spirits, did you know that blowing them out does in fact cancel out all of their positive effects and impacts. 🕯️ Why is it never necessary to blow on a candle to extinguish it? We reveal everything you need to know to help you revel in the good vibes.

Every flame speaks to your signs. What are yours?
Sun, Moon and Rising: the foundation of your birth chart
Out of habit, we blow our candles out, at home as well as on birthdays. And yet tradition advises against this gesture!
Why should you never blow out a candle, how should you put it out and how should you light it? Everything you need to know.
✦
Why should you never blow out a candle?
In rituals and prayers, each candle color has a precise meaning, and the whole candle carries a meaning too: its wax stands for grounding in the earth, its flame for the link with the sky.
Blowing on it would chase its benefits away: the link with the energy you called upon would be cut off abruptly, and the intention placed in the flame would fly away with your breath.

How to put out a candle
1.
Let it burn down
A cheap paraffin candle can burn to the end, in a safe place and under your watch.
2.
Pinch it out
For a beeswax candle, pinch the wick with damp fingers or cover it with a spoon.
3.
The snuffer
The most respectful gesture: the little bell smothers the flame gently, without splashing wax.
Before putting out the flame, take a moment to give thanks: this is how the ritual closes gently. Tradition also holds that candles are put out in the reverse order of lighting, and that a ritual candle is never used twice.

To light your candle, choose matches
Tradition recommends a match rather than a lighter: its wood is linked to the earth, one of the four elements, and it accompanies the new fire.
As with the candle, do not blow on the match either: let it go out on its own in a small dish. Finally, feel free to pair a white candle with the other colors to amplify their effect.
✦ ✦
What about the birthday cake?
It is the exception that proves the rule: on that day, you blow precisely to “send” your wish. The gesture is joyful and deliberate, far from the ritual candle hastily put out.
To read the messages of a candle that goes out on its own, smokes or crackles, discover the meaning of candle flames.
Key takeaways 📌
- Don't blow: your breath chases the candle's benefits away and cuts the link with the energy called upon.
- Pinch or smother: damp fingers, a spoon or a snuffer, and never leave a candle unattended.
- A match rather than a lighter: its wood ties it to the earth element.
