Candle Magic

I recently obtained some beeswax candles, and have been researching candle colors and meanings on the site, and am confused. Which color do they count as? I don't have much experience with candle magic so I don't know if I should classify them as gold/brown because of their tanish-honey color, or should I classify them as white because they are colorless? I was wondering if someone else had experience with this because I don't want to experiment because I only have a few and they were expensive. What should I do?

Plain beeswax candles class as the same as white candles, they are multipurpose. They always ahve for me anyway, some people class them as gold but bevause they are colouless (non dyed), I personally class them as "white".

I would use candles of that color for spells pertaining to intellect. Keep in mind that color symbolism is subjective, so you may use it for other purposes you believe the color represents well.

I know people that use colored wax thread to tie around beeswax candles to use make them whatever color they need at the time. Do what feels right to you.

I forgot to mention that I sometimes paint my candles if I don't have the color I want. Works best with a dark color on a light one.

Thank you so much! I found this really helpful, and I wish you all good luck.
