The purpose of birthday candles

In ancient Greece, people believed in the moon goddess Artemis. At her annual birthday celebration, people always offer honey cakes and many lit candles on the altar to create a sacred atmosphere, showing their special respect for the goddess of the moon. Later, as time passed, due to the love for their children, ancient Greeks also liked to place cakes and other items on the dining table when celebrating their children's birthdays. On top of them, many lit small candles were placed, and a new activity was added - blowing out these lit candles. They believe that lit candles have a mysterious power. If a birthday child makes a wish in their heart and blows out all the candles in one breath, then their beautiful wish will definitely come true. So blowing candles became a small program with auspicious significance at birthday banquets, and gradually developed to include the fun activity of blowing candles at birthday parties or banquets for children, adults, and even the elderly.
Many boys who pursue girls will use birthday candles to put out various shapes to please girls.
