i agree. the candles burning represented the passion and true love pedro and tita had for each other. pedro dying after their sexual encounter in the barn shows how his matches weren't dampen from the time apart. tita had to swallow the matches because her matches dampened because she wasn't able to act on her feelings because of her mother.
I concur. The candles in the final scene show the passion they had for each other, the burning flames of love. I didn't fully understand why Tita had eaten those matches at the end of the movie. But I believe that she was lighting the flame of love within her. She was finally with her true love, with no one separating them. Since Pedro died while they were making love, Tita ate the matches so that the flame of love and passion engulfed her.
I believe that the candles represent love, compassion, happiness, trust, accomplishment, and serenity. That they have finally found each other both at a time where they can be together, and are in no one's way. I also believe that the candles represent the long wait that Pedro and Tita went through in order to get where they were at the very end of the movie. A wait of struggles, and challenges that they were put up against and only their trule love for each other was able to overcome all of it.
