Candle magic, started fire-omen?

Question

I was doing a spell about someone, and the flame jumped SEVERAL feet, and caught that persons pillow on fire a bit.

Is that a good omen, or bad one?

(More info: The person's pillow was freshly washed, and wet, and air drying. It was literally several, several feet away. The candle was small, and had not been knocked about..it was very contained.)

Answer 1

Have you ever seen fire-breathers at a carnival?  They use a flammable liquid, like alcohol, to spit flame several feet.

Were you drinking?

Answer 2

Not sure if trivia is the right place for your question, try putting into a different category and you might get some answers from somebody who knows something about it.
