Lighting the Wick by Sandra Mariah Wright and Leanne Marrama

(Tarcher Perigee, 2021)

An illustrated guide to improving your life through the simple act of lighting a candle.

Whether you would like to take back control in an uncertain world or turn a dollar-store candle into a means to manifest your desires, Lighting the Wick will help transform your life with candle magic. Learn how to:

• find, repair, or end a relationship;
• guard your boundaries and keep negative energy and toxic people out;
• ground and center;
• achieve common health goals;
• break bad habits, bolster motivation, and increase willpower; and
• meditate with the assistance of candles.

Candles represent faith and hope—a light in the darkness, the warmth of love, the heat of passion, and the fire of spirit. Here, Salem-based intuitives Sandra Mariah Wright and Leanne Marrama show you how to put the power of these simple tools to work for you in your daily life, to improve your relationships, achieve success, provide protection, increase health, honor those who have passed, and more. You don’t have to be a witch to find your inner magic.
