My SIRE flame journey... Don't give up, too quickly!

[long post - with video] I've read don't worry too much about the flame, but then we also know the flame gives us signs. I'm still new to everything so I'm only just starting to pay attention to the flames. Until Sire, all of my previous candle burns had normal or "dancing" flames. Nothing dramatic. Sire started off normal and steady [VIDEO 1]. Then about 30 min, it went down to a teeny blue flame and stayed there.

Backtracking slightly... I chanted over this candle at least 5-6 minutes, even had an interruption and started over. I felt this was my strongest chant to date - how much emotion I put into it (words are irrelevant, by "strong" I mean how much of myself I put into it). So when the flame died down, I was devastated. Then I panicked...lol. I went back and was re-read up on flame signs (yes the flame was blue, but that's also common in wooden wicks - or so I've read, so I didn't think it was an angel flame). [VIDEO 2] It also looked like the wick may be drowning, so I scooped just a spoonful of the wax, and put it on my petition. That didn't help. The flame stayed like that for several more hours (a few times it was even lower) and as you can see in the video it was also leaving a buildup on the sides - another bad sign. I had planned to burn for only 10 hours, but started wondering if I should just snuff it and rethink everything. I stressed over it for a while. And I kept talking to Sire - reaffirming everything. I noticed when I talked to Sire the flame would grow, and then die back down when I stopped, like he as listening (no I wasn't breathing on it..lol) Then suddenly I just had a feeling that the candle needed time. I was almost at my 10 hours at this point, so I decided to burn it all the way out, no matter how long that takes. I started burning at 3:30pm yesterday. I burn only in my bedroom, so I never left my room except to attend to other things in the house (bathroom, kitchen, etc). I also quietly meditated about this before I went to sleep. And I told Sire to align the spirits and the angels to my desires. I went to sleep with the flame still looking like Video 2. [VIDEO 3] I was restless, didn't go to sleep until almost 2 am, then woke up around 3 am due to a noisy wick (lol) and to this happy flame and clean burn. It's been burning like this or stronger all morning, and burning fast now. My moral - Listen to what they say about not sweating the small stuff (like your flame), but also listen to your gut/intuition. I feel like Sire had some obstacles to work through for me. I've been saying I've felt blocked for some time now and did the Divine 9 and Legba Rite to help clear that up, and so Sire was able to break through!

I appreciate Auntie LaLa and the work she puts into these, strong powerful candles... Blessings on blessings!
