Purple Figure Candles in Folk Magic Tradition
Figure candles cast in human form have been used in hoodoo, Santeria, and European folk magic for centuries as a way to represent a specific person, or an archetypal quality, in candle spell work. The masculine figure targets workings where the intended subject or the aspect being cultivated reads as male. Purple wax places this candle in the domain of psychic power, spiritual authority, and crown chakra energy rather than in the material and financial domain that green and gold occupy, or the passionate love domain that red holds.
In hoodoo rootwork, commanding and domination workings that target a man, or that are performed seeking to assert spiritual authority in a situation, commonly use the purple figure. The candle is carved with a name or petition, dressed with commanding or domination oil, and burned on a prepared plate. In Wicca and ceremonial traditions, a purple figure candle may represent the practitioner themselves during workings aimed at expanding psychic sensitivity or deepening the connection to higher spiritual guidance.
Dressing and Working with the Purple Man Candle
To dress a figure candle, apply condition oil from the head of the figure down to the base to draw the energy toward yourself, or from the base upward to push the energy away toward the subject. Carve the target's name or initials into the wax with a pin or nail before dressing to personalize the working. Purple figure candles pair well with commanding, psychic power, or crown glory oils depending on the working's intent. Browse my ritual oils collection for condition oils suited to this type of candle work.
The 6.75-inch size burns for approximately four to six hours as a single session candle, or it can be burned in stages over multiple sessions by extinguishing it with a snuffer between workings. Place the figure on a fireproof plate and surround it with herbs, powders, or personal concerns as the tradition calls for. Never leave a burning figure candle unattended, as the form may tip as the wax softens near the base.
How to Use the Purple Man Figure Candle
Step-by-step guidance for preparing, dressing, and burning a purple man figure candle in folk magic practice.
-
Prepare and personalize the figure
Carve the target's name or your own initials into the wax from head to foot. Write a petition paper naming the intent and place it face-up on a fireproof plate, then set the candle directly on top of the paper before dressing.
-
Dress the candle with condition oil
Apply commanding, domination, or psychic power oil to your fingertips. Work the oil from head to base to draw energy toward you, or base to head to send it outward. State your intention aloud as you dress the candle slowly.
-
Light and monitor the burn
Light the candle and observe the flame throughout the burn. A steady, tall flame is a favorable sign. Extinguish with a snuffer between sessions. Dispose of remnant wax by burying it or discarding it away from the home.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
I stock purple figure candles because the psychic power and commanding traditions in hoodoo and folk magic demand specific tools, and a correctly colored, correctly shaped candle is foundational to the working. This one is sized for a full single-session burn and is well-suited to the experienced practitioner who dresses candles intentionally.
