You Light Up My Life | Soul Inspirations 266 • February 26th, 2018

Hi Everyone and welcome to my Soul Inspirations newsletter - "You Light Up My Life"

Every evening for many years I continue to have a ritual that I would like to share. Although quite simple, I find it to be quite powerful to have an intended thought powered by light. The simple act of lighting a candle every night for me reminds me that all thought has power, and keeping a candle lit safely for awhile helps me to send and keep a positive thought on a desired intention.

Candles have been used since the dawn of time for meditations, blessings, religious beliefs, healings, prayers, celebrations, abundance, psychic development, to feel comforted and protected, a memory of a loved one, spiritual understanding, and yes, even romance. The uses are endless.

Many people choose candles by scent, some choose by color, while others are simply fine with a plain candle, or even a tea light in a votive purchased from a dollar store. You don’t have to spend a lot of money – no matter what you choose, it’s the positive use of the candle that makes it special!

I have even rubbed certain oils on a candle while sending a specific thought, and have even inscribed the candle with a message pertaining to what I am seeking. It’s a way of making my prayers and intentions even stronger for me.

Every day people are using candles in a positive way without even knowing it! How many times have you blown out a candle on a birthday cake? What you’re actually doing is that when you close your eyes and make a wish (holding that special thought) and then you blow out the candle, you’re actually sending off the wish while bringing your desires to light.

Candles can even be used for balancing your aura and chakras, so try (safely) burning a candle connected with the same color chakra. For example, use an orange candle for the sacral chakra, a blue candle for the throat chakra or a red one to strengthen the base chakra. White candles represent all of the colors, and when lit, protects and gives peace and comfort and enhances spirituality.

When my mom was ill, every night I would light a white candle and would take a moment to focus on my mom, and used the energy of light to send her healing and peace. It was a reminder to place a positive thought on her health as opposed to envisioning her being sickly. I’m not sure if it was the candle, the light, prayers, or the thoughts, but I have to admit she had many good days before she passed.

I find that candles keep me connected to my soul and the Divine, and are a special reminder that we are never alone. That’s why if I can, no matter whether I am demonstrating my mediumship with one or in front of hundreds, I will have a candle flame always burning to remind me that spirit is always there!

JOHN'S LESSON

If you've never used candles for the power of an intention, how about trying it for a week or two? Maybe it will become an every day ritual for the rest of your life that you'll enjoy, and that hopefully you'll see the benefits from.

Many people start off by using a specific color: White for spirit or protection, red for strength, pink for romance, and green for abundance. It doesn't really matter what color you choose as long as it has meaning to you, because that's what it's all about.

If you've never used a candle for meditation, then try it. By focusing on a candle flame, it can take you deep within yourself. If your mind begins to wander, then simply focus once again on the flame to bring you back to your meditation.

It is said that, "Some people are drawn to light - while others emanate it." If you know someone who could use healing and light in their life right now, light a candle for them as you send them your thoughts.

Light can illuminate even the darkest of places or situations, so give it a try and keep the faith and know, not just how powerful light and positive intention is - but how magnificent and special you truly are!

Live a Soul-filled life!
