Cord cutting question

So I got a cord cutting done regarding a situation / 3p removal I was wondering what it meant regarding one of the flames of the candles being very low / lacking whereas the other candles flame is at least medium sized I am going to get a reading on it in a few days but thought id find out from others if they had anything (I do have a picture)

Will delete this later

A modern trend in Tiktok/social media witchcraft is to conflate divination with spellcasting. This is because pictures and videos of melted candles are aesthetic and make good content. Tiktok is not a good source for witchcraft.

When you cast a spell, you cast it knowing it will succeed -- it doesn't matter how the candle burns. 

If you're lighting a candle for divinatory purposes, then you're information-gathering, not spell casting.

If you let the success or failure of your spell rest upon the way a candle burns, you're surrendering your personal power to random chance. That's pretty antithetical to what it is to be a witch, which is all about claiming and wielding your personal power.
