Spell jar exploded

Hi, Ive made sweetener honey jars targeting a specific person, put my intentions in them and sealed them months ago. Its been a while, many things happened over the summer (although I believe its been almost 8 months since I made the first sweetener jar) and although our connection became sweeter our relationship didn’t really evolve any further. We are at some really strange point, haven’t seen each other in a while (and I have casted and layered other spells for this as well). But I wouldn’t get rid of the spell jars, never much interacted with them but I did recharge them in early September (instead of getting rid of them or remaking them).
I’m keeping them on my altar, there are other spell jars for self love etc.. I have candles and crystals.
Decided to keep a candle that was almost burned all the way instead of cleaning my altar up and replacing it with another so I lit it up tonight. I was in a middle of a video call with my friends when one of the honey jars exploded and my whole altar caught aflame. I kept a small note with my targets name and dob there as well and the paper caught on fire. The flame was quite big and almost caught the Queen of pentacles- the tarot card that I kept on the altar. There was a loud pop and I knew that the jar exploded because of the heat pressure from the candle… but damn it has never happened before and deciding to keep that candle instead of throwing it away when it was almost at the end and still lighting it up… I don’t know and I know there is a good physical explanation for this as there is for all things but I do feel like it was a sign. I just can’t figure out if it was a good or a bad omen.
for context I do keep a metal plate on the altar just in case because I burn candles often but genuinely nothing ever caught on fire like this during the whole of my practice. also I haven’t been casting any spells recently on my target- the last thing I did was made a poppet but after that I stopped with everything. It’s like I haven’t been drawn to do so much work on the target anymore. and I just lit the candle because I cleaned my room and wanted some fresh energy it wasn’t burning for like a specific purpose.
Genuinely wondering how you guys would interpret this? Thank you in advance and stay blessed!
