Why shouldn’t a candle be lit with a match?

The tips of matches are created with a substance called sulphur, along with other stuff, that makes the matchead light. Sulphur, in the traditions of hoodoo and conjure, is used to do work that is considered evil. In Old English verbiage, it is sometimes called Brimstone, and you may have heard it used in movies along the European magical style. A bit of “bubble,bubble,toil and trouble.”
Sulphur is used when you want to thwart or even do serious damage to an enemy. It is also used to cross up an person and make someone move away.
For most purposes, it is suggested that you use a small lighter or even a small broom straw lit by a gas flame (as on your kitchen stove) to light a candle for good works and blessings. Using a sulphur match to a black revenge candle would be an appropriate choice to enhance your black candle spell.
Good Question!
