What It Can Point To
- A normal amount of wax left by the candle design.
- A wick that ended before all wax could burn.
- Unfinished work if the leftover is heavy and unusual.
- Residue that should be disposed of safely and cleanly.
Details That Change the Meaning
Small wax leftUsually normal.
Large wax wallTunneling or weak flame.
Wax with petition remainsDispose according to intention and safety.
Wax with broken glassTreat as hazard first.
Before You Decide
Read the ordinary cause first. Then read the pattern. If you skip the ordinary cause, you will scare yourself and call it intuition. I do not work that way.
Do not put wax, oil, glass, herbs, or salt down drains. Let everything cool and dispose responsibly.
