A Havdallah candle is a special candle used in Judaism to mark the end of the Sabbath and to mark the transition from the holy time of the Sabbath into the new week. The candle usually has several wicks that are brought together to form one end. It is lit during a special ritual called ‘Havdallah’, which takes place on Saturday evening after dark.
