Question #1063: Help on candle colors in black magic

The candle color section of the website states that "Black is an all-purpose color and, where available, black should be used with other colors in all rituals." and that the color red "When used in black magic, red as opposed to black provokes sudden attacks, accidents, bloodshed, violence and hatred."

In that case could I use a candle that is half black and half red, or a black and red candle?

Black is ruled by Saturn, which is slow but steady. Red is ruled by Mars, which is explosive and violent in nature.

It would be more practical to get one of each color.
