If death is over-much, you might choose to substitute a Crossing candle (to cross up their luck), a Hotfoot candle (to make them go away), or a Damnation candle (to bring down the torments of hell upon them).Chagrinedgirl wrote:In "The Magical Power Of The Saints" Malbrough has a couple of spells for eliminating a rival, and both call for a DUME candle along with the condition and saints candles. Since I think death is a bit much for this kind of thing, what is an appropriate candle to substitute?
In many respects, the design of the petition paper depends on the purpose of the candle. With a Court Case candle, for instance, it is not uncommon to list many names (the opposing party, the lawyers, the witnesses, the judge, etc.) on the petition paper and then cross the list of those names nine times with the name of the person on whose behalf the candle is being burned. In a case like this, the candle is for a single client (and a single case), but because there are many parties involved in the case that we want to deal fairly and favorably with the client, many names will be used on the petition paper.goldbell wrote:Sometimes I buy a 7 or 9 day vigil light in glass from Cat's shop. On the candle, it explains to write out a name paper with the person's name written out nine times and put it under the candle. I like to do it that way. Usually it is for myself so I just write out my own name paper. Sometimes though, it is for someone else and I write out their name. I have those glass candles from other places too but still want to do it the way it explains on those candles from "Lucky Mojo". Lately, I wanted to light those candles for more than one person. I just want some opinions on this. Does anyone put more than one name paper (with the name written out 9 times under a 7 or 9 day vigil lght?) Does it matter whose name is on top and whose is on the bottom? it is probably a picky question but nevertheless, I still wonder.
When I do healing or blessing work for multiple people using a single candle, I do not use multiple petition papers: I use a single petition paper prepared with multiple names (each name written once, with the list encircled by a phrase such as "completely healed in mind, body, soul, and spirit" -or- I use a "healing book" (a small notebook to which I can continuously add names). Stacks of folded petition papers under a vigil candle are to be avoided, if only because they make an unstable base for the candle.goldbell wrote:I think you answered my question. I am doing more thinking and preparation for work at this point than anything else. So, if I were going to light a blessing candle or health candle of some type which is a glass encased 7 or 9 day vigil light, it would be appropriate to write out the person's name I am doing a blessing for 9 times and slip it under the candle and then decide to add someone elses and write out their name 9 times and slip it under the candle and maybe I would think of someone else and then do a name paper for them and have a small stack of name papers under some type of glass encased vigil light for blessing or healing? Is this correct?
Better yet, consider the hotfoot candle spell described at the bottom of this page:goldbell wrote: Also, say I lit a glass encased hot foot candle because there were some people I wanted out of my life and wanted them to stay far away from me. Would I write out a list of names of the people I wanted to stay way and then cross it with my name and put it under the candle? Does each person's name have to be written out 9 times before my name crosses over it?
I would do both. If you have the oils then you can take one vigil light and combine both formulas on the vigil light and I would add a dash of JC oil as well.chatocamacho wrote:Im going to be taking a test and I wanted to see what you guys thought about using a king solomons wisdom candle or crown of success candle

In all honesty, I have never heard of a cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all-situations prescription for "the number of candles that *must* be burned for a work to be effective". I've had excellent results from a single 4" offeratory candle, and I've had other situations that I felt needed continuous burning of 7-day-style votives for literally upwards of 3 years (and they worked, too). Some folks don't use glass-encased candles at all, and their work is highly successful. Conversely, all the candles in the world may not yield the results desired if the work is performed by someone who lacks the gift and skill for it. (Much as a fully-equipped workshop is no guarantee that one will be able to produce a beautiful and functional piece of furniture.)eagerbeaver88 wrote:I was just curious, I know some people say burning one glass encased candle is enough for a spell to work while others say you should do it in threes or else its not effective or wont. I've even heard as far as to burn 7 glass encased candles (5 day candles) for the most effective power, while I can see certain people thinking more is better, I was just curious what everyones opinion on this is and what kind of success stories you all have had?
Thank you - I thought so but wanted to make surecatherineyronwode wrote:Candles should be kept cool and dry -- which means you cannot keep them cool in a refrigerator (it's moist). For most folks, the bottom of a closet on an inside wall remains cool, even on a hot day. Candles will burn faster in hot weather, or so it seems to me, but i burn so many of them that i just consider that "the way things are in summer." In other words, it doesn;t seem to affect my spiritual focus or will, not the outcome of the jobs i am doing.
Good luck,

Thank You.
Candle *spells* are a variety of spellwork in and of themselves, and the burning of dressed vigil candles with petition papers fall well within this category of spellwork. Vigil candles do, indeed, make fine "back-ups" to other types of spellwork, but they are also a perfectly valid and effective kind of spellwork all on their own.path2success wrote:1. I have read a few spells using only vigil candles in the Magical Saints book. Does that seem sufficient? I know intent, meant to be , having the talent are prerequisites but after all that do burning vigil candle combinations constitute as a spell? Coz from all what I've read till now we need to perform spells and burn vigils to backup our work.
Yes, many folks use a bathtub for ongoing burning of candles, regardless of the purpose; likewise deep sinks. Fire safety is a greater concern than strict separation of works--just make sure the tub is clean and otherwise appropriate for positive work. [It is a good idea to thoroughly clean the tub after using it for enemy work, regardless (using Chinese Wash or a similar product).]path2success wrote: 2. Is bath tub an ok option to burn love vigil candles. Enemy work is usually done there so if I have to burn Infant Jesus, Holy Trinity , Reconciliation candles wouldn't that be slightly offensive from a religious perpective? I'm confused since all say that vigils need to burn continuous and since i'm in office for 12 hrs i can't take the risk of leaving them burning on my altar.
That's awesome! Thanks for bringing this candle to my attention. I am going to look into this.kittynmoon wrote:Thank you St. Expidite and Lucky Mojo for your candle service.

Just yesterday I was wondering whether this matters, but my gut feeling was that it was appropriate to the person I am working on haha.
