Book of Shadows One very important tool many use in magic, spells, and ritual is color.

Different colors symbolize and attract different things. For example, one might perform a candle spell using a pink candle to strengthen friendship. Or, one might perform a healing spell using a blue candle. Or create a talisman bag using red fabric with certain herbs and/or stones to attract passion and romantic love into their life.

Every color has a different meaning, and below you will find a chart showing the meanings of many of the different colors. Many of them are interchangable, and you may make substitutions in the event you do not have a certain color on hand.
