To know the future by a candle's flame is covered 
quite adequately in this
little poem from an unknown poet:


Touch a light to the little wick,
Watch it burn to the candlestick.
Study with care the little blaze;
Fortunes are told in its tiny rays.

If an unseen power makes it weak and low,
For you it foretells a tale of woe.
If that same power makes a blaze bright and 
healthy,
You'll be happy and wise, be good and wealthy.


For those who wish to pursue ceromancy, which is 
divination from forms
produced by dropping melted wax in water, it is 
simple enough for anyone to
try. Use any colour candle,though the darker hues 
will show up best. It
takes only a bit of imagination on the part of 
the magician to "see" the
images which emerge from a bit of hot wax allowed 
to drop into a bowl of
cold water.
