Candle Spell Part I

In my previous posts I talked about candle colours , candle beliefs, reading a candle flame and today I am going to share an interesting candle spell and this spell is used to draw money , an important element of our day to day life.I would suggest whether you believe in it or not but if you do make up your mind to try it out , try casting the spell with full faith and devotion in what you are doing.  If it works for you you may pass it off as a coincidence ! Before casting a spell you may chant in your own words or the chant given below followed by the ritual to cast the spell.

                                                       Candle of power, candle of might,
                                                                      Create my desires here on this night. 
                                                                      Power, stream from this candle's fire. 
                                                                                Bring to me my heart's desire. 
                                       My words have strength, the victory's won. 
                                                                                                         So say I, this spell is done.


 Money Spell

This simple spell is used to bring money to you when you have a debt to pay. You'll need a green beeswax candle and money drawing oil.
On a piece of paper, write the amount of a bill you owe.
Anoint the candle with the money drawing oil.
Place the paper with the amount written on it under the candle.
Light the candle, take a deep breath, and for the next 15 minutes, visualize writing the check to pay the bill, putting it in an envelope with a bill and then mailing it.
Snuff the candle with your fingers or use a snuffer. Do not blow the candle out or it will interfere with your spell.
Repeat the ritual for seven days at the same time each day. On the final day, use the candle flame to burn the paper, and allow the candle to finish burning out on its own.
