Reversing Vigil Candle Questions and Answers

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Mon Jun 20, 2016 10:20 pm

Dear Warchild,

The three that did not burn through signify problems completing the spell due to past issues (social or emotional more than magical, usually) that were not fully addressed or that linger from previous situations.

The fourth candle finally burning through shows that you overcame the problem -- and the fact that it resulted in the glass breaking shows that you may have indeed broken the resistance to your work. It is a very definite sign. A broken glass is NOT usually "godod," but in this case it shows a break-through on the conditions of the past that hung around for three candles. Now it remains to be seen if the next candle burns through to the end and does not break. That would be an advantageous finale to a run of Reversing viigil lights.

Hi everyone,

I am currently doing a reverse vigil candle so my target's ex goes away. I have her ripped photo on the black part and his photo on the red part. I also have her full name written at the base of the glass.

My question is, if I want to make it broader - let's say her and any other obstacle/woman - can I do it now or is it too late?

I am not saying I don't want my POI to have female friends but there may be some I would prefer to stay away from him.

Thanks.

Hello, agj5,

Please post in the appropriate subforum and thread as it is a lot of work for the moderators to do this and then answer you.

Unfortunately, that is not a good idea. Your petition is already being taken to Spirit and you don't change the message.

Sorry!

Take care

Hello

I got a LM reversing candle and it's burning well. The entire time it's been the noisiest candle I have ever burned. It pops, hisses and whizzes. Loud enough to be heard in the other room. I'm almost to the red. I can only guess that it's working through issues but.. I'm a correct? I pray over it at least once a day.
I've always read that popping means spirits are speaking .. I hope it's "almost through the issue" and not " holy crap this is a hot mess."

All to say.. is the popping a good sign? The glass is clear.

Thanks!

Good Morning everyone, I was curious what I should do. I have a enemy who hasn't done any footwork or spells against me But has been saying some pretty disparaging things online that are true but things that I confided in them about. Now they are putting this information out to blast me I guess,and rub it in my face. Can I do some reversing work or a reversing candle to make them go through the same things?

MaeHelen89 · Unread post by **MaeHelen89** » Thu Jul 20, 2017 5:05 am

To be clear she has kind of been poking fun at me for my depression over a abortion I had four years ago. Like making jokes about it and she knows how hard that was on my family, my mother,my father,my husband. Now she is making Facebook post about this. Should I print out the post then dress some reversing candles and set reversing candles on top of them the post and write my petition on the back of the post. Or write my petition to state what I want to happen and copy her words to send them back to her?

Hi, MaeHelen,

I might be overstepping, but you can find some very similar situations discussed in depth in the posts on this thread: spell-casting-to-stop-gossip-and-slander-t2568.html

Perhaps a more experienced member could assist you, but I do recall a spell and advice specifically against a member's FB attacker. It involved baking pastry made with LM Reversing sachet powder. It stood out as unusual, which is why I remembered it. It was one of the free spells offered in the catalog about the product: http://www.luckymojo.com/reversing.html

EDIT: I moderate a Facebook group with 56k members, when very personal attacks occur outside the group (usually because someone is dissatisfied with a decision to remove inappropriate content) we've found the 'report to Facebook feature' works great, too. Used in combination with some of the advice others have provided, you can nip the offending post and prevent it from happening again. I hope this helps. I disdain bullies and FB bullies in particular.

Hello All,
I have a few questions about Reversing or Return to Sender Lucky Mojo Candles. I've bought them from Lucky Mojo in the past and they work like a charm for protection. My question(s) are a bit tricky with a case I'm working on. If the person that sent the magick to you is actually a vassal or fully possessed person by a man made thought-form will it work the same? I know the thought-forms name and the person who is possessed by its name. I'm assuming I'd use the thought-form. Additionally, I know who the person/(group) that created this thought form. Could I also include their names in mirror writing along with the thought-forms in the space provided?
Thank you and I apologize if I sent this twice I sent it out I'm not sure it was sent, I use to post on the forum awhile ago and you I use to be able to monitor it seems and keep track of my topics that were pending.

Hi TheUnQuietGrave1777,

Use whatever name you know the source of evil/negative energy by. You could include the name of the person being used as a channel, but they are not the source in and of themselves. Go for the source.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Good morning,

yesterday i begun with burning the reversing glass candle. i wrote on the petition paper, "back to sender" because i dont know a name.
So the flame burns very slow, so slow that i think it will turn out, but it still burn.

Is it a sign? A sign that there is really someone who did something against me (was not 100% sure) but it felt like so.
And also a sign, that it need longer time to send all back?

Unread post by **JayDee** » Sat Oct 06, 2018 7:53 am

Good Morning ZeroMagic,

A weak flame may suggest that the work is not strong or the person is resisting the work may take more time. Try using a more specific petition on the next burn like" May all the evil, the bad energy, the magic that was sent to me, done to me and burned in my name be sent back to the wicked person who did this to me amen". Read also bible verses about sending the work back to the wicked such as: Psalms 34 to send back and destroy evil Psalms 53 for protection on you from known and unknown enemies.

You would benefit from doing a house cleansing and a cleansing of yourself during this time as well. Then dress in a protection oil to keep it off of you. Cleanse the house with a product like Chinese Floor Wash ( my personal favorite) or ammonia start top to bottom back to front, then light a white candle in each room when done to seal it.

Take a spiritual bath like uncrossing, or 13 herb bath to remove the evil from you, Bath and pour the water over you wipe downward to take the curse off as you say your petition and recite Psalms. When you dry off dress your body with fiery wall of protection oil to keep the evil off of you.

Good Morning,

hmh.....is it normal that the candle make that i feel more bad? Last week was horrible, more and more bad things, and have more bad mood.

Sometimes i think i should stop it, sending back and better continue with jinx killer candle.

But i see the black part of the candle is near gone. Think today the red part begin.

ZeroMagic,

You should not feel worst. Are you wearing protection as you reverse the work? Also continue with a daily spiritual bath as you work to reverse and use this candle. You can also use jin killer along with reversing candle. They compliment one another.

Dear Forum,

Would a reversing Vigil candle work for somebody’s at work whom negatively interfere with my job? This individual might not have put any spell on me, but doing something at work to purposely hinder my success.
Any other suggestion on which Vigil candle for this situation is welcome. Thank you all.

Yes reversing can reverse the condition the person is doing to you as well. I would include a stop gossip candle to prevent them from hurting you with their slander as well.

Hi everyone,

Would it be ok to ues reversing oil on a black candle? (Not a double action) i have some black coach candles and was thinking of carving the names of the targets and dressing it in reversing oil.

Thanks again in advance.

Mark777 ,

Yes, it is traditional to cut the top off making a butt and carving the former bottom into a top with a knife, carve your petition into it backwards ( writing backwards in a mirror) and dress it with reversing oil. You can place it on a mirror as well that you have not looked into, this will reverse the work.

thelight1 · Unread post by **thelight1** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:09 am

I have a perhaps silly question..

Usually when i order candles of any type i order them in runs.. is it okay to order a run of reversible candles as well? or should i just stick to one reversible candle? I guess what scares me about ordering a run of reversible candles is that i do not want the work to keep being reversed back and forth between the target and i.. does that make sense?

for example, if i order one reversing candle with an example petition being "May all harm done by X be sent back to him. May he feel all the harm and misery he has caused me", and lets assume my petition be granted, then i get what i asked for. however, if i order a run of reversing candles, would the energy be reversed back to him, then back to me on the second candle, and back to him on the third?

hope you all understand what i am trying to ask.

thank you for any answers.

Unread post by **JayDee** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 12:36 pm

thelight1,

You are over thinking this one a bit. The reversing sends back what you ask it to, this case the bad things they did to you. The continual run of the reversing would be to continue to send it back and keep it back at them. Your petition is clear on what the work is to do, therefore it would not send it back and forth like a tennis ball to both of you. It is a good idea to set a run because people may resist the work and try and harm you more, this will keep the work and pressure up on them. During this time and thereafter I would wear Fiery wall of Protection oil on your body to keep you safe.

"Reversing is more final and more effective than just cleansing, if you actually have an enemy. It teaches the enemy a lesson that he or she truly deserves to learn. Situations vary a lot, but speaking only for myself, the more persistently someone tries to hurt me, the more i want to send back to them exactly what they put on me. And i think that's a pretty common attitude."

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.

I remember talking to someone who does reversing candles "to all his enemies" on a monthly basis, as a form of cleansing. Is it possible to reverse gossip that was spread around years ago? AFAIK, the gossip has stopped, but I wonder if continued reversing candles can pry the slander away and get people to see they were hoodwinked into believing lies?

Unread post by **JayDee** » Thu Dec 16, 2021 2:04 pm

eireguitar,

Great question, however Reversing sends back what was sent to you, the damage, the curses, the slander goes back to them. It does not change what you did experience. Stop Gossip is a product that helps you not be effected by gossip being spread about you, I also suggest adding Slippery Elm in your shoes as you do this. However, this does not change the slander that happened in the past and change peoples mind. To change a persons mind you would want to work with Influence and Clarity to help them see clear and past this, to see the truth, this would work wonderfully on a White Skull Candle.

Thank you so much, JayDee. I am feeling called to start with reversing.

Would addressing the candle and/or petition to one person be more powerful than to a group or "all my enemies?"

Or doesn't it matter?

It is not so much a question of "which is more powerful" but rather "which suits your actual purposes," or "which best accords with your understanding of the situation andat the same time best favours your desire to create beneficial change?'

I did a reversing spell using a 9" candle (no glass) with the red on the bottom. Is it normal for the black to bleed into the red? Should I have removed the black drippings as they appeared? Would a good burn have shown either no wax or a red circle on the mirror? Thanks for your feedback!

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Mon Feb 28, 2022 10:59 am

eireguitar --

When you ask if a particular burn is "normal," i think you are actually asking "is it favourable or unfavourable?" The truth is that when you have burned hundreds of candles, like i have, you will see so many different kinds of burns and signs left in the wax that you will approach each one as an individual reading. Some results may be less common than others, but all of them are, in one sense or another, "normal."

What you describe is a heavy layer of black wax -- that is, a strong curse -- and it is not moving away very easily. Removing it as it burns is what i call "working" the candle -- and that is perfectly legitimate,. Letting it burn and observing the results is called "reading the candle" -- and that may result in positive or negative prophesies.

In my book, "The Art of Hoodoo Candle Magic" I devote some space to describing the difference between working a candle and reading a candle, and why you may wish to choose between those two modalities.

DeborahHarris,

Good question, all of them are methods that are used by people to dress and prepare their candles. Some people write a petition or a seal on the wax, some people place a petition under the candle, some glue or tape it to a candle, and some even print a label specific to the candle and put it on.

Unread post by **JayDee** » Sat Sep 02, 2023 5:32 pm

LolaWitch ,

The candle is dressed and prepared to return what a person has sent to you. You write the petition that the evil, spells, whatever they did return to them. I'm a bit confused about wanting to reverse the work you did for someone else. If you did the work it returns to you. If you did work on someone and now feel it is not justified, you can burn a figural candle with Uncrossing to remove it off of that person and ask God for forgiveness, then wash in Hyssop.
