• Prepare your space. Place your candle along with any other items which support your intentions - these might include personal objects, pictures, crystals, divination cards, written intentions, etc.

• Be still. Sit comfortably in front of your prepared space and take a few moments to center your heart, mind, and body.

• Connect with your intention. From your heart, begin to visualize or meditate on your desired outcome.

• Connect your intention with the candle. See and feel this desire coming to fruition and allow the emotions and physical sensations to flow through you and into the candle.

• Light your candle. If you wish, recite the provided invocation (on the candle) out loud.

• Close your ritual with gratitude. Know that your intention is now illuminated and has been received by the universe. With your heart full of gratitude, you may want to take a few more moments to journal or continue to sit quietly feeling the energy of what is coming.

When you work with your Muse House Retreat Intention candle, it is best not to blow out the flame, but rather sniff it out so as not to blow away your intentions.

Caution: Always take care when lighting and burning candles. Do not leave unattended while burning. Keep away from children and flammable objects. The glass vessel may become hot while burning or may crack due to heat.
