As each woman gets the candle, she has some time to discuss her personal difficulties/thoughts/feelings/what the chapter means to her/etc. Hopefully, this should become very personal and allow the women to understand and empathize with their sisters better.
We do that, but with the sergeant-at-arms' gavel instead.
