Figure Candles-Figure candles are used much like voodoo dolls. The occultist would bless the figure candle as he would any doll, then stick a pin into the candles heart area, and burn the candle for the same amount of time each day, focusing his or her energies into the spell. Figure candles can be used for a number of different spells and rituals and depending on your intentions they can be used to bring protection, good health, prosperity, and luck to an individual or they can be meant to bring bad luck, failing health, and negative energies to an individual.
