Candle passing is an informal ritual. I actually experienced my first one a couple of weeks ago and we were told to inform our director of rituals if we wanted to have one but each chapter is different. There are four degrees to a candle passing...some of the members here said that a candle going around once is for a lavaliering, etc. At my chapter, the first degree is for friendship. For example, maybe you have had a really rough week and one of your sisters was really there for you and you wanted to thank them for that. The second degree I *BELIEVE* is lavaliering/pinning and I know the third degree is for pregnancies or engagements. I forgot what the fourth degree was seeing since I've only been to one candle passing lol. If you're interesting in doing candle passings at your chapter I would talk to your chapter president or director of rituals about it.
