Influence Vigil Candle Questions and Answers

Hi. I am currently starting a skull candle for love and I wanted to light an influence vigil candle to back up the skull candle while I am talking to it for 7 days before I light it.

How do I word my petition for the influence vigil if I want to influence the target of my skull candle and all around everyone else in general?

Hello, Tropicalenvii,

You can't use one skull candle for more than one person.

Let's say that I want to influence someone to give me their dog.

I would use the influence products on the white candle and I would petition (and also state)

"Give Aida your dog"

Just an example

Take care

Influence candles are one of my favorites for people who are very stubborn and like to be in control

So, I use this often to convince them of what I want them to do (but make them think it was their own idea!).

Thank you so much. I cant remember exactly how I worded the petition. Plus I wrote the petition on one of the pentacles of Venus that you guys have on parchment paper. I crossed my name over his 9 times each and looped that I wanted to influence him and everyone else around me(I think)but it burned clean to the socket. Only herbs were left so hopefully it will grant my influence over him. Thats all I really want

Greetings.

Would a influence candle be ideal if I wanted my ex to forgive me and allow herself to open up to me?

Petition example - With the grace of God Jane Doe born 6/27/17 will Forgive John Doe born 6/27/17 for past differences and allow herself to love him again.

Thanks

Greetings

Aside from the influence vigil to get her to forgive me what other candle(s) can you suggest to remove any negative thoughts about me or about anything that transpired during our relationship that is causing the resistance she is putting up? I need to remove the negative thoughts that is causing the holdup and unwillingness to give me another opportunity. She is stubborn in the sense that she doesn't let go of certain things easily.

So far I have ordered a reconciliation honey jar, a return to me candle and ordered a 3 consecutive run of influence candles that MISC will lite on my behalf.
I want to try and hit from every angle as this is basically my last resort, we've been separated for about 6 months now and want to try to do anything I can with the help of MISC.

Thank you!

Hello, God_Willing ,

I would use healing and ask to heal from any emotional pains that she has experienced (or believes that she has experienced) from you

Then follow that up with Rose of Crucifixion

Can I use an influence candle to encourage someone to leave their job and look for other opportunities? I have a coworker who is constantly putting children in dangerous situations and would like her to leave. Is this the best product for this type of work or is there a different product I should be purchasing?

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Sat Jun 16, 2018 12:34 pm

Dear Paymetoday --

Yes, you could use an Influence Candle for that -- but i would back it up with a Hot Foot Candle and some Hot Foot Powder where she works, calling her name into it to that it only affects her, when she steps into it or touches it.

Is burning an Influence vigil candle the same as burning a skull candle dressed in Influence oil?

Also, when rubbing the Influence oil on a skull candle, what direction shall I go for?

Unread post by **Miss Athena** » Mon Apr 22, 2019 6:47 pm

Hello mastersirius678,

No, it's not the same thing. A skull candle is used to implant thoughts and ideas into your target's head. An Influence vigil candle can help to influence that person's behavior but if your goal is to affect their mind, go with the skull candle.

Depending on your goal, you would anoint the skull candle downward to remove something, upward to draw in something, or in a swirling pattern if you want to scramble their thoughts.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi everyone, I've only started getting candles from Luckymojo to be lit on my behalf few months ago. So please pardon my lack of knowledge as I'm still learning but please be assured that I'm like a sponge and open to all opinions.

My set of influence candles past lightings have been having very positive readings until the last run which I bought three weeks ago, the first two candle readings was only "okay". I do not know why this is happening. Because if I managed to influence target previously, and if the magic should last since my burn was positive, I do not know why the recent ones weren't as good. Could anyone enlighten me and suggest what I should do? Should I continue getting the same candle with the same petition? But I'm worried that I'll keep burning to only have negative results. How can someone whom I managed to influence stop being influence or isn't as influenced as before? I'm really clueless

Literary Grasp ,

Setting candles is a great way to do work, and also back up the work you are doing, say burn a skull candle on the target while telling them what to do, and having a run of influence candles set at the church at the same time. People can be influenced and then resist that influence, I often see this happen with reconciliation work a good burn the person contacts then a bad burn because they are resisting. I would continue working on the person set the candle to reinforce the work and do other work that I can do myself during the time the candle is burning, such as: skull candle to influence them, honey jar to sweeten them, paper in your shoe to influence and dominate them, items they will touch dressed with influence powder. This way you are working along with your candle to get the success.

Hello Literary Grasp,

Situations change over time, and it isn't uncommon for new delays or obstacles to appear. If you are confused by your candle results, you can get a reading from a reputable reader to gain more clarity on what is happening with your target. You can find reputable readers here:
www.readersandrootworkers.org/
www.hoodoopsychics.com

They can guide you on the kind of work you could then do to ameliorate the situation.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Why does the label for this candle say that I can burn it while I am playing in the games of chance? Can I burn it while playing at the casino?

Hi mastersirius678,

I'm curious, where are you seeing that the label for the Influence Vigil Candle says that you can burn this vigil while playing games of chance?

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Mon Sep 02, 2019 10:32 am

The text reads:

"This candle is fixed and dressed with Influence oil, herbs, and roots alleged to bring influence in career and school matters. Burn this vigil light at home; while you are meeting people, betting, or playing games of chance; going out on the town; applying for jobs; working at your place of business; or promoting yourself, your skills, or your wares to the public; for all the blessings and influences you desire."

In other words, it is an all-purpose influencer, to put yourself over on others.

In games of chance, you might, for instance, wish to influence an opponent at Poker to fold, even though he or she was holding a better hand than you. Or you might lull someone into not raising a bet when you do not have enough cash on hand to cover the raise.

However, you would not use Influence for luck with a slot machine, as there is no one "there" to influence.

Hoping this makes sense.

Ahh I see, thank you Miss Cat

So only at table games I guess. This does make the Influence product a gamble helper light in a way, but only for table games where you go against a live person, the dealer

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Mon Sep 02, 2019 12:51 pm

mastersirius678 --

Yes, table games, and not so much against the dealer specifically as against OTHER BETTORS. Mess with their confidence or increase their confusion; influence them to respect or fear you more, or, if playing a board game, for instance, influence them to let you kinda get in under the wire on dodgy moves.

"We are often asked to explain the difference between Influence and other, similar-sounding formulas, such as Commanding, Compelling, Controlling, Domination, Do As I Say, and Essence of Bend Over. Well, each of those others has its own fine points, but what sets Influence apart is its subtlety."

Our prepared 8" glass-encased vigil lights come with a dressing of oils and herbs and will burn for 5 - 7 days, depending on ambient temperature and other factors.

If you wish to set a traditional Novena of nine days, you will either have to start and stop the candle (which can result in a smoky glass), or purchase two candles to run continually over the 9-day period.

Always practice fire safety when setting vigil lights. If you must keep them lit when you are away or asleep, be sure that no pets or children can get into the room with them, that they are not near curtains or flammable cloth or paper, and that you have a smoke alarm in your house. Placing lit vigils in the bathtub is quite common, but you must not have a shower curtain if you use this method. Setting them into a fireplace is ideal, as there is a ready-made chimney for them.

Hello everyone,

I have previously purchased a Influence Glass-Encased Vigil Candle but did not have the chance to perform the burning until recently. However, taken the situation at that time, I had requested a "no label on candle" but somehow I could not be able to retrieve the instructions for burning of this candle - is there a way to get back the information? Such as how to write my wish on the parchment paper and the prayers...or is it similar to other candles such as Return to Me / Reconciliation? As I have these with labels on I can always refer back to them...

Thank you in advance!

eye_candies,

A petition on an Influence candle would be written on a piece of brown paper bag torn on all 4 sides. Then you write the petition, what you want in a clear manner. Stick this under the candle, if you have a photo of the person you want to influence, add that under the candle as well.

Hello to all, I bought an influence Virgil candle to influence my boss to allow me to go back to my old department but keep my current pay. I have her business card, a picture I printed and 1 grain of her hair that I collected off her shoulder. Is the one grain of hair sufficient? Do I burn the candle for 7 days straight since I would like this to happen very soon or do I light it a little each night for seven days. If I do have to light it a little at a time my concern is how do I get to light it when I’m in my 4-5th day and my hand can’t fit to reach the wick. What would be the best way to word the petition paper to get the best results but keeping it short and to the point.

Thanks in advance

trueblu23,

One hair is sufficient for the personal concern, more personal concerns does not mean more powerful. Read more about personal concerns here: https://www.luckymojo.com/bodyfluids.html

It is custom to burn a vigil candle for the 7 days straight. By doing this it keeps pressure 24/7 on the work, it also will give you divination signs as the candle burns and any marks left in the glass. Some people burn a bit each day due to not being able to leave the candle burning in a safe manner. Downside is that you will not be able to get divination out of the candle. To light it, get long fireplace matches. You can learn more about burning candles from Miss Cats book The Art of Hoodoo Candle Magic.

The Art of Hoodoo Candle Magic: https://www.luckymojo.com/artofhoodoocandlemagic.html

A petition should state clearly what you want, not be ambiguous, clear to the point. "Jane Doe the manager at Store, return James Doe to (department) making (x$) now with out delay".

Hi Trueblu23,

Influence also works better at night. Talk to the candle between 2-3 am, or when the person is sleeping. If they work a night shift, you may do the work during the day when they are sleeping. Tell the person what to do.
Best of luck,
Mr. Christopher

So a I stated the candle on Monday since that first day the flame has been very low and small is burning clean but is the flame this low because my request isn’t getting through so I do back up work? Or is it low because it’s burning in the melted wax, as if in liquid?

Mr Christopher · Unread post by **Mr Christopher** » Thu Mar 02, 2023 5:31 am

Hi Trueblu23,

Unfortunately, we cannot do Pyromancy on the forum, you can hire a reader at the Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers http://www.readersandrootworkers.org/

I can offer some tips and tricks. In Hoodoo we work the candle we don't accept fate, we shape it.

- Lower burning flames can be caused by cutting the wick too short, causing the wax to flood, try pouring some wax out
- Overcrowding with herbs, causes the wax to melt fast.
- Overloading with oils, try taking a steak knife and stabbing into the candle from the top to allow drainage.
- Drafts, unseen air currents from AC, or Heating ducks could impact results, try burning stick incense near the candle to see the direction of air.
- Sometimes you need do something in the real world, like apply for the position talk to your old boss.

Best of luck,
Mr. Christopher

trueblu23 · Unread post by **trueblu23** » Thu Mar 02, 2023 8:35 am

Understood,
I didn’t cut the wick, I only added a few drops of boss fix oil and influence oil since the candle already came fixed.

If I pour out the wax, or wont that affect my divination signs?

Using a stake knife would drain the wax deeper into the unmelted wax?

I will have that conversation with her and see if that helps

Mr Christopher · Unread post by **Mr Christopher** » Thu Mar 02, 2023 8:48 am

Hi Trueblu23,

You can pour out some wax it will not impact any divination. Yes by adding holes melted wax will fill those holes and provide some support to the wick.

Hi all, just an update:
On Thursday I got a text from my target asking me to assist on an assignment from my old department the next morning. Of course I accepted and when I got there the manager asked me why did I want to leave. I told her it’s because of the pay, she told me she wants me to return but the pay she may not be able to do anything about. The person who accepted my old position isn’t doing so well and they all want me to return. I think this is a sign but it’s not coming from my target. I’m going to remain hopeful and continue the remaining days on the spell keeping faith.

Yes, you can use an Influence candle on yourself -- at least i don't see any reason why not. Put a free prayer for support up at the Crystal Silence League while you're at it.

Remember, James 5:16 says, "...pray one for another that you may be healed."
