Velomancy
The Art of Reading Flames
Light the sacred candle, silently formulate your question and observe how the flames reveal the messages of the universe.
Candle reading, also known as velomancy or candle flame divination, is an ancient divination method that involves interpreting the behavior of candle flames, wax patterns, and smoke. The practice dates back to ancient civilizations and has been used across many cultures for spiritual guidance and divination. Each aspect of the candle—how it burns, how the flame moves, how the wax drips, and what the smoke forms—carries specific symbolic information. The system is rooted in the belief that candle flames act as a bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds, carrying messages from the unseen realm.
