Use a map. Where you place your candles is every bit as important as which ones you choose. A bagua is an octagonal shaped map that helps you to evaluate the space you are using. Follow the guidelines to place your candles in the area of your house that corresponds most to the life aspect that you are trying to improve.

Use caution and check balance in the Abundance and Family life areas of the Bagua before placing many candles. The element resonating in those two areas is wood... too many candles is not so good.
