There are a few reasons as to why this might happen most of which are merely irregularities in the wick. The most common causes are having a wick of a too larger diameter or poorly combusted carbon deposits falling back onto the wick and giving a larger area on which to burn the wax. In either case it's nothing to get particularly concerned about and is completely natural. If in the future a flame that you're using gets out of control during a spell put it out, you can always start the spell again later and it's always better to be safe than sorry.

The wick was short. That is why i was so surprised by how high the flame got. But thank i have calmed down a bit now.
