Pink is the tender heart of the candle spectrum — softer than red's passion, it carries gentle love, warmth and emotional healing. It is the candle of affection, kindness and care for oneself and others.
Pink candles represent gentle love, friendship, compassion and emotional healing. Where red burns with passion, pink glows with tenderness — the warmth of affection, self-love and nurturing care. It soothes the heart, mends emotional wounds and draws gentle, kind connections toward you. It is the colour of romance in its softer forms and of the loving-kindness you extend to yourself.
Choose a pink candle for gentle romance, friendship, self-love and emotional healing. It suits workings to soften a harsh situation, nurture a budding relationship, heal a wounded heart, or cultivate kindness toward yourself. Its energy is gentle and soothing rather than fiery.
Cradle the pink candle and let a feeling of warmth and tenderness rise in your chest, then imagine it pouring softly into the wax. Name the gentle love or healing you wish to invite. Anoint it with rose or another loving oil if you like, then light it in a calm, comforting space.
A charged candle is the heart of many rituals. Explore step-by-step practices for the moon, your space, and the turning of the year.
