Is it good to light up candles?

I heard it brings spirits. Is it true?

It is a sort of offering, I suppose. Whatever the circumstances, I find candles soothing. A plus if it adds spiritual connections (Candles are used pretty much everywhere, including by New Age people and religious groups.

My brother was a fireman and the stories he tells about candles. If you think an 8 year old with his skin pealing off from burns is good then go for all the candles you want. I am too scared to light any anymore. I use the LED ones.

It is good to light candles if it somehow adds to a positive celebration or helps you focus.
Of course, if not used carefully, terrible accidents can happen.
I heard it brings light and a bit of heat. I think that what I have heard is closer to the truth that what you heard.

Spirits perhaps in the alchemical sense that you are making something volatile, but nothing along the lines of spirits as supernatural entities. And alchemy is no longer a thing anyway.

Lighting candles brings alchohol? Why didn't anyone tell me this sooner?!
