Question...

Is there anything I can use instead of candles in spells?

It depends on the type of spell you are doing/what purpose you are looking to fit- could you be more specific? What may be suitable for one spell may not be for another.

You can use all sorts of things in spells, and not every spell requires a candle. It really depends on your spell. Incense, crystals/rocks, knots, etc. There are many many ways to do spells.

The "element" of fire is symbolic of your will, which is why in part why it has use in magic. I would try a different spell that doesn't use a candle. If you can visualize and concentrate, it is possible to make it work without any tools. Raise energy in your favorite way and visualize what you want happening while doing something symbolic to represent your will. Lastly, believe that your ritual will work, or if you have doubts then avoid thinking about the spell afterwards, since doubt can negate the magic if you let it linger. Hope this helps :)
