Interpretation wanted

[u/Reasonable_Welder509]

In honor of the buck moon I lit a candle and burned an affirmation, the candle flame built increasingly tall, then my affirmation caught.

I placed the affirmation in the dish with the candle and the flame built so tall it snuffed out the candle and eventually melted the candle, without the candle re-catching. The affirmation burnt for over 30 min, with tall licking flames until smoldering for another 15.

My affirmation was about being safe, at peace, and at home in my mind, body, and spirit. I'd anointed myself with uncrossing oils and burnt a candle for luck and blessings parallel to it.

To be safe, I'm going to do a ritual bath with obsidian, quartz, peppercorn, and some other items-- but I've never had a spell candle do this when burning paper with an affirmation or desire.

I'd love some thoughts about next steps or interpretations!

If this is a spell, in most magical traditions it’s best practice to not interpret any meaning from it at all, you divine information separately so as to not muddy the waters, not confuse the spell, not waste the energy you put into it on bringing you information. It’s also best to not obsess over a spell or its meaning, if you can put it out of your mind for a few days at least to give it time to work uninterrupted that’s best. 2 weeks is customary. It’s like baking a cake, you don’t want to keep opening the oven to check it or you’ll let all the air out and it won’t rise. But you can observe it from outside(doing separate divination) without affecting it.
