Thank you!

I don’t know if I totally buy the idea there was no relation to her ill health—it would make sense to me that a lust spell could hijack their kidney yin, and burning through that energy leaves less for the body to tend to its own needs.

That being said, thank you so much! This is all very helpful and useful.

Reflecting on your advice I think it’s probably best for me to dispose of this one and move on to more productive things—appreciate it!

Hi All,

I posted my situation last year about how I got caught in a crossing, had a reading and this was confirmed that someone threw some work on me that affected my romantic life and completely turned my life upside down.

After many obstacles getting my uncrossing candles and work shipped to me (delayed shipping, candles nearly lost in transit etc) I finally got my candles and started the uncrossing work today. An hour after lightning my candle, I started feeling unwell, dizzy, headache and just a weird feeling that something was not right spiritually. My candle had a low flame to start with but picked up to a steady flame but then it attempted to split into 2 flames. The candle flame then just went out before my eyes. Does this mean my uncrossing work is now broken? I have re-lit the candle and prayed over it again.

Just to add, I had 2 other white candles burning at the same time and their flame was erratically dancing around earlier but they had a steady tall flame when the uncrossing candle self extinguished.

Msbabyconjure,

We do not do candle readings on the Forum; we strongly suggest a reading by an AIRR member.

A weak candle flame shows the work is resisted, a slow burn is also slow progress. The flame going out would indicate resistance and someone working against you, it is not a good sign to the work that the flame went out. It is good you relit it. With this resistance, I would take a spiritual bath for 13 days to cleanse the body, and clean the house with Chinese Floor Wash to remove any energy in the home. Then add protection to keep it off of you, such as the Fiery Wall of Protection Spell Kit.

Candles in the night! Here is a group of vigil lights set at Missionary Independent Spiritual Church and photographed after dark by our shop manager Leslie Lowell.

Allow me to draw your attention to the three "Come To Me" candles. Two are burning smoky and soot-black and one is clear as window glass. These are for three different clients. Two are meeting with strong resistance from the person whose love they desire, and one is finding joyous acceptance.

It is our job to interpret these candle burns for our clients and tell them the truth about the outcomes of their spells. It's a tough job sometimes, and a happy job at other times, as you can see.

I am burning a male figural candle for my boyfriend's legal problems. As the head burned down, a tongue formed, then fell off. My first instinct was that he will say the wrong thing or say too much when defending himself. Any help with interpretation would be greatly appreciated.

littlewing,

We do not conduct wax reading on the forum as that is a service that is provided by AIRR members.

A tongue means talking, talking till your tongue falls off, comes to mind, thus I would say they need to stop talking or they will incriminate themselves.

I had a strange thing happen when I cast a spell earlier today. This was a spell I have successfully cast in the past many times.

While I was speaking the prayer/invocation, I started choking while saying the target's name. This started halfway through the spell and lasted through the rest of the spell. Also, when I lit the candle, the flame started normally but quickly became small and died completely in a matter of 2 or 3 minutes. No smoke, no wax melting. What caused this? Nothing similar has ever happened before. Thoughts? Ideas on how to proceed?

Uptownbumps,

I moved your post to the proper thread which is on divination. We do not do candle divination on the forum, as that is a service that is provided for through AIRR members. However, based on your post this would indicate to me strong resistance from the love partner or an outside person influencing the work. The candle going out is a major sign of that.

I use plain candles all the time in different ways for different spells, with nothing extraordinary ever happening.

My current spells are angel magic using Cassiel, Archangel of Saturn, and Samael, Archangel of Mars -- and when doing a return-to-sender spell for a specific person, the candle always ends up bending by about 90 degrees. What does it mean?

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Wed Jul 27, 2022 11:36 am

Kasekemwy,

When attempting to divine the meaning of a candle's way of burning, it is important to first exclude mere physical effects. For Example:

1) This summer of 2022 is the hottest on record throughout much of the USA and Europe. The candles you burned in winter may be falling over in the heat because they were formulated with a wax that cannot withstand such high ambient temperatures.

2) You may have started burning candles made by a different supplier. Wax (and all petroleum products) have been in short supply since the Covid pandemic of 2020 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Standards of melt-point shift as supplies come in and go out of availability.

However, excluding those simple and obvious reasons for candles bending, the next question a diviner would have concerns which candles bend and what direction they bend in. For example:

1) If the candles are intended to return some form of energy to the sender and they bend toward the sender, it means something different than if they bend away from the sender, or all bend North, or East, or whatever.

2) If they bend in a variety of positions, not always the same way, it would point to a physical explanation, not a mystical one.

For more on candle divination, my $9.00 book, "The Art of Hoodoo Candle Magic," listed in the post right above yours, will help you, i am sure.

Good luck!

Kasekemwy · Unread post by **Kasekemwy** » Fri Jul 29, 2022 9:55 pm

Thanks for the response. The mechanical explanation can be ruled out. Summer temperatures are normal in the Asian country I am in, and the first time it happened, it was spring and still a little cold. The first candle bent south, and the second bent the opposite direction in the North.

Hello guys,

I have been doing a candle run and have finished burning 2 Return To Me vigil candles, 1 Reconciliation and am currently on the 4th which is a Follow Me Boy that started few days ago. My practice is to snuff the flame out in the morning before going to work and relight it every evening when I go back home leaving it burns till the next morning repeatedly until it completes burning.

While the first 3 candles all finished burning perfectly with a strong and clean flame without any wax left, my FMB started off slow but steady. But yesterday when I relit the candle, the flame went out thrice (much to my frustration...) and I only realized it was due to the problem of the short wick being drown by the melted pool of wax when I looked up on this forum. I then soaked up the melted wax twice and fortunately the flame returns to a clean and much stronger form and have kept burning until I snuff it out this morning.

May I know if I have ruined the spell and shall I keep burning the candle? Also, as I am doing a candle run with the same petition paper - would this candle's situation affected my first three and do I need to start everything all over again?

I am quite inexperienced with candle burning so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all your kind help again!

Hi Eye_Candies,

We can't do Ceromancy reading on the forum, but I can give you a few tips.
1. Anytime you snuff a candle out and relight it over and over you going to have some issues. Hopefully, you have a bell-shaped candle snuffer, you don't want to blow a candle out.
2. You should not leave candles burning in your house while you are sleeping. You can put the candle on the patio with some sort of metal or flower pot shelter it would be safer.
3. A run, normally means more than one candle is dressed with oils and herbs and prayed over at the same time, then burned one after the other to see progression or build on the same result.
4. Reconciliation and Follow Me Boy is not the same, they use different herbs, and they have a different purpose.
5. If the wax is flooding the wick, do 2 things,
Support the wick by taking a wood match breaking it in half and using the nonsulfur half to stent the wick so the match becomes a temp wick.
When the wax is melted and it's safe to pick up pour out some wax.
6. If the glass is clear without black soot all the way down, the candle was successful. If it's gray could be from relighting, and if has wax rings some people say that's how long it will take to be successful.

If you need to know if the work was successful you can reach out to a Member of the Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers. https://www.readersandrootworkers.org/

Thanks tons to Mr. Christoper for the very helpful advice.

I always use a bell-shaped candle snuffer and leave the vigil candle in the bath tub while it burns during the night - thanks for the reminder!

I was under the wrong impression that FMB was somehow "related" to the Return To Me and Reconciliation family...like in terms of attraction on an emotional level...so would it be better if I write a new petition paper for my current candle? And my main concern is that the first 3 candles had completed so perfectly that I dont want it to be ruined or affected negatively since I am using the very same petition paper....I hope it's just my overthinking

Mr Christopher · Unread post by **Mr Christopher** » Thu Nov 17, 2022 6:23 am

HI Eye_Candies,

Without reading, I cannot say for sure if the work was somehow impacted by changing candles. If you started the candle with one petition you should keep it going, now if you do another candle you can change it up. Reconciliation and Return to Me are in the love family, but herbally they differ. For example (I do not know the formula Lucky Mojo uses) Reconciliation normally has lavender as primary, and Return to Me has rose as primary. Lavender has a soothing, and slight domination quality. Rose, has love and protection quality.

Give it a few days, if you see signs that it's working keep doing it. If you do not see anything happening get a reading.

Best of luck,
Mr. Christopher

Eye_Candies,

It is very hard to get candle divination out of votive glass encased candles that you put out each day. Why? Well these candles are prepared to be burned 24/7, and as it burns it will heat up to heat the wax around the glass to give a even burn. Each time you put out and relit a candle you are adding smoke, match smoke, wax possibly being splattered from putting it out, etc. This makes reading them very hard. If you cannot leave them burning at home, I suggest you put them out as you are doing, and have a candle set my MISC to give you a candle reading. This is also called backing up the work, as your candle burns the church is also backing up the work you are doing.

Couldnt thank you both enough Mr. Chris and JayDee for your kind and helpful advice.

I have booked a reading with a local reader earlier but am still waiting for her feedback. Meanwhile, an updates on my FMB candle:

I relit it yesterday when I get back home and the flame was all normal so I just say my prayers and left it in my bath tub to burn. But when I woke up this morning I found that the flame went out by itself again during the night (100% sure it just went out by itself as I got no pets and I locked my room which means my family couldnt access into my room's bathroom). I have been doing the work with this FMB candle the exact same way as my previous 3 other type of vigil candles and everything was just perfect with them.

So I am not sure what I should do next: Shall I leave this current FMB candle and start another one (something different like Love Me or Fire of Love) with a new petition? Or shall I give my FMB one last try? As I will be staying home the coming days which means I could pay much more attention to nurse the candle.

Also, if I should leave it for now and start a new one, shall I simply dispose it or can I "restart" this candle later if the situation becomes more favorable?

Thank you again and again!

Hi Eye_Candies,

You should keep working with the Follow Me Boy candle. Things happen the wick gets flooded, and air from the heat blows it out. After this work, you can do Block Buster https://www.luckymojo.com/blockbuster.html to remove any impediments.

eye_candies ,

You will notice a theme in hoodoo, we often discuss working the root, working the candle, this implies that we do not passively sit back and watch the work. If a candle is burning poorly, which is a bad sign, instead we work the candle. This may include setting a helper wick if the other ones is drowned out, remove some wax, remove a knot on a wick etc. This is part of the magic, in that you are taking a bad burn and turning it into the burn, the expectation you want, which is success. I would carve the wick out, relight it and pray, monitor and work with it till it burns the way you desire.

Feeling so lucky and blessed to be able to learn so much here from you all

ladie1st · Unread post by **ladie1st** » Sat Feb 11, 2023 4:47 pm

Good afternoon!

I have been enjoying lucky mojo, it’s products and this discussion board for YEARS, but I have never posted. I never really had a reason to because everything I’ve ever needed I could find with a search or in one of the many books sold on LM. Frequently I just browse and read just to learn and I go back to listen to the shows. I also have attended the last 3 Hoodoo Heritage Festivals where the teaching and learning is top notch. I’ve met some really great people despite it being online.
I have a huge stock of supplies and there are not many LM oils or herbs that I don’t own. Bear with me, there’s a lesson coming.

Anywhoo. I was perusing one of the spiritual shops here and felt bad because the new owner was just pestering me to buy something, so I did. I knew better than to buy that Candle because I always use LM candles and they have always worked. But no, I bought this darn candle. I later decided to use it and when I say terrible, I mean terrible. I trimmed the wick and trimmed the wick and trimmed and everything until I was blue in the face. That thing did all kinds of curling, craziness and nothing but soot. I put it out. It was the gooeyist, poorly made candle EVER! I fussed at myself because I knew better than to veer away from my trusty LM candles, but here I was racking my brain on what to do. I went to my Red and then Black books and I suddenly remembered Miss Michaele’s festival class from a few years ago where she taught us about saving our wicks. I ran to my office and searched my supplies. I found the kit that was included for her class where she had a few wicks and a metal chopstick thingy. I cleansed the area and I also said out loud…” spirit forgive me for using something else other than LM candles. They have NEVER steered me wrong. I promise I won’t ever do that again!” I used the chopstick and put a hole in the candle and added the other wick. The candle burned, but despite that it’s just a cheap, poorly made product.

Here’s what I learned:

1. This Board, along with the festivals, have really taught me a lot and have advanced my work. You all are amazing teachers and amazing people! I appreciate you so much.

2. Stick to what you know gives you the results you’re looking for. LM products, oils and candles get the job done. I know a few probably get a little irritated when someone reminds them that this board is for LM products, but let it go. There’s a reason for that. They WORK!!! The information on the site that you read is tried and true for many. Just position yourself to learn so that you can master your craft and grow. I promise you will not regret it.

3. Thank you to Miss Cat, JayDee, Miss Michaele, Miss Robin, and all of the others that freely share their wisdom and advice in this forum. I can look back and say that I am definitely not at the same level I was when I attended my first festival. You all have helped me to grow and walk in my power. Before doing any work, no matter how many times I’ve done that kind, I ALWAYS come back here to refresh myself before starting. I always get the results I’m looking for. And if I’m shaky on something, I don’t hesitate to get a reading from one of the AIHRR members. What’s beautiful is that it doesn’t matter who I choose. I could blindfold myself and point to one on the screen and it’s a no fail experience. You all are amazingly gifted and I just felt like today you should hear it. You are loved and appreciated more than you will ever know. Blessings to you all!!!

ladie1st,

What a wonderful testimony on the products and the quality of candles that Lucky Mojo provides. Yes this forum is sponsored and operated by Lucky Mojo, and the products are top quality, therefore we do focus on them, because we know they are made in the traditional manner, prayed over and prepared for the clients.

The festivals are an amazing method of learning about Hoodoo from the AIRR members, each session is planned out with detail, months of work goes into the festival. The kits for those who order early are tailor made for each presentation, for a hands-on experience. You can also purchase the lessons and watch them as much as you like.

Festival Videos: forum269.html

Saving candle wicks is an old trick to splint a candle burning poorly. Some people light a candle, let it burn, and then determine by the burn how the work will go. Others, intervene, if the candle is burning poor, they adapt to the work, they "work it" to change the outcome. Miss Cats book , The Art of Hoodoo Candle Magic, goes over many tricks and workings of a candle: https://www.luckymojo.com/artofhoodoocandlemagic.html

On behalf of the members of AIRR thank you for the kind words to all of us!

JayDee,

Thanks! That class and the supplies she gave us in our box came in handy and I was able to save it. Rest assured I will NOT buy another Candle from anywhere else. It was extremely poorly made. The wax was gooey and stuck to everything, never hardening like my trusty LM. The actual candle consistency is more greasy. I’ve never seen that before but it doesn’t matter because I’m never hurting any of it again. I’m also thinking I might be ready to take the hoodoo class that’s offered. I feel like I’m ready to take it on. I’m excited and grateful.

ladie1st,

You sound ready, and I strongly encourage you to take Miss Cats course, you will love it and enjoy it. I completely understand what you mean about candle quality, this is actually an important point in candle reading, the quality of the candle. Not all candles are made alike and burn the same. Over the years I have seen candles poorly poured, wick not centered, not the proper size of wick, poor quality material. This will effect the burn of a candle and thus the results of the work.

Hi MysticMarley,

If it wasn’t done out of malicious intent , it could be fine. Though, having a method of divination, such as a pendulum to do a quick check is not a bad idea either.

Also, something to consider when burning candles in a household where someone else may blow them out is the upcoming, 2023 Virtual Hoodoo Heritage Festival taking place June 10 & 11. One workshop that is being taught by Miss Michaele on Saturday, June 10th, is called Sneaky Tricks: Hiding Hoodoo in Plain Sight — which will have a new book with the same title included in the goodie box! I am currently proofreading the book, and the information is going to be very useful!

Hello, I had a weird experience today as in all the times I have been doing uncrossing work I have never experienced this before... So anyway, I have been doing a lot of uncrossing recently as I feel It hasn't been awhile since I had one (cuz I was really very busy as of late..) so, I had a few baths and I felt good... then I remembered that I haven't placed mirror protection on my windows yet in this house we moved into few months ago, so few days ago, I did that as well and did some protection work in my room (it's one I learned before on placing 3 evil eye beads in a water to act as a shield of protection, etc). I didn't really felt anything in particular and in fact the past few months have been really great on me so I don't particularly feel that I have been affected by an evil eye or anything of sort... though I do remember since July - there was an instinctively feeling and vision that showed to me that hey, I need an evil eye protection, etc - but nothing really big happened at all. If I would say - - the only thing I had was there is like a (I think a very small patch of dead skin that turned into like a ball-like looking - - which tends to happen, though this is probably my 2nd time experiencing it and the first one was last year and it went away eventually). Though it is on my crown area of my head, though part of me felt that I contributed to it cuz I was randomly scratching it for no apparent reason and that was the result of it.

Then, I woke up today feeling very terrible suddenly - like my head is about to split open. I thought it was due to lack of sleep or a migrained... but just in case, I did a very simple candlework using a tall taper white candle where I rolled it in downward motions from my crown to the soles of my feet. I was feeling so terrible so I made sure to really run over everything. Then, I simply wrote words on the candle like - - " remove and neutralize illness, negative energies, evil eye" - - then I turned to the other side of the candle and wrote" to all my enemies known or unknown remove and reverse back what has been done" (I wrote this as an addition just in case...)

Then I simply have burned this one in a candle holder. It was all good and no problem whatsoever. After awhile, I actually felt so much better which made me feel that maybe the candle was working because I haven't been feeling for half the day and suddenly after awhile of the candle burning I suddenly and unexpectedly felt quite better. So, I was telling myself... this must be so. But as the candle ends the candle holder suddenly.. cracked and popped out. Though there was still a fire on the wick so even when it was cracked I just let it finish until it ended. For some reason I was surprised when it cracked - - but it didn't made me felt alarm. It was like a pop of feeling in me... and the first thing that came to my mind was, does that mean whatever has afflicted me has been dealt with? But I do remember there was one part where I heard from Ms. Cat that crack of a candle holder is never good.. (though it's actually a very old radio way back since sometimes I re-listen to the old podcast). Anyway when the fire finally burned, no issues really occurred and no black flame as well. I am not exactly worried but I still want to ask if someone can clarity what it could mean? Or what sign it could be if you are doing a work for removing stuff and healing / reversing things back kind of thing and that occurs? I wanted some confirmation so I also did a Bibliomancy on this (following the guide in Hoodoo Bible here in Lucky Mojo).I got... Nehemiah Chapter 2 verse 8. I felt this is a positive answer... and for some reason it felt it was quite connected to my concerns (that is why I have been into Bibliomancy recently since it always match based on what I ask... but I al also not sure if I did it correctly since the one in the book said its only for yes or no) soI realized I didn't exactly asked a yes or no question but I asked... what this crack on this candle holder could have meant.

(also there is not much black soot in the glass as well... like just a little bit (to a point I was even wondering why it would crack to begin with since I felt it was not practically should have done so, etc).

(PS. I am not sure if I even posted on the correct topic area but if I did not, I do apologize I can't find where I should ask about this)

Thank you very much.

A breaking candle glass is not a good sign in some work, such as love, luck, or happiness. But a breaking glass on a Block Buster, Uncrossing or Road Opener can actually a good sign, and even in Break Up or Separation work it can mean it was broken through. Going with your experience of feeling better, it popping and breaking I would read as a sign of breaking the infliction.

It is best to get a reading however to determine this: https://readersandrootworkers.org/wiki/ ... ootworkers

I just burnt a freestanding candle and most of the wax poured out in lobes into the SE section of the dish it was placed in. I cannot find my copy of Hoodoo Candle Magic.

What does that area govern - the past, present or future?

The SE can mean late morning (before noon), late Spring (before Mid-Summer), a time of growth before the height of growth, a time of increasing warmth before the culmination of heat, or, more literally, the direction in which someone lives or is staying with respect to where you yourself are.

The past, present, and future may be indicated by facing the candle, and marking the left as the past, the center (facing the candle) as the present, and the right as the future. The side you cannot see -- the back of the candle as you face it -- stands for things unknown to you, or out of your sight.

Hello all, I had a question that's been bugging me & couldn't really find discussion of it in the forum: do astrological transits/aspects to persons natal chart affect candle divination results & reading for that person? for instance, does challenging astrological aspects like oppositions or retrogrades show up in the candle burning results?
like, what is the intersection between those two spheres...

Hello, BlissTifsihit --

Astrological aspects can affect many people on earth at the same time, but they operate more strongly on those who have natal planets in the areas where the currently aspecting planets are. or making similar natal aspects on their horoscopes.

For example, not every transiting Mars-Venus conjunction will affect everyone the same, but for those whom it does affect, due to their own natal Venus-Mars aspects and positions, the result will probably be seen in their candles -- andin other portions of their lives.

Good morning!

I am burning an Uncrossing candle for my love since he's been cursed. The figural candle has been burning well each day with a high flame. It's been moving, not necessarily dancing.

My question is that since I put his concerns in the bottom, it leans to its left (my right) so I haven't paid much attention to the wax pooling to that side. Just now as I was saying Psalms over it (Psalm 145), it made a noise, so I looked up. It split open down the center front in the chest area and a bunch of wax dripped down the front. Straight down the front (it is now pooling and the wax is going to the right and the shoulders are still in tact if it matters)

Can anyone tell me what this might mean? Thank you.

In trying to visualize what you have described, my sense is of a blow to his chest and him bleeding out from the heart. This i would consider a very troubling sign.

Your mileage may vary.

Hi Miss Cat. Thank you for answering.

He has been seen by his doctor recently and has a clean bill of health. I have heard from him today while he was at work.

The hole was not right at his heart, but right in the middle of the male figural candle's chest.

Candle reports from my AIRR person show has been resisting the love and reconciliation work (he's been actively holding back from me), but that was before I had a reading that confirmed he had a long standing curse put on him (hence the Uncrossing). There were not just signs, but movement as well.

I saw it as all the things he hasn't said/done since I have been living with him since the curse is being removed (I am having my worked backed by an AIRR reader), but this is a first for me, so I thought I would ask. What else could it be if he's already been seen by his doctor and he's healthy?

What does it mean when the wax from a free standing red blockbuster candle flows clockwise then counter clockwise then clockwise again? It was for my target's resistance to be busted thru. Thanks

A few love working candles have also done this recently. My target & I haven't been talking very much bc he's just lost his job & is having to move out of state possibly so I know that's probably an obstacle.

Gothbarbie1313,

Wax going counter-clockwise would indicate it is reversing, but not being removed. Wax running away, wax running clockwise, wax melting and evaporating (burned up), a chuck of candle falling off away from the petitioner (block) are all good signs for Block Buster.

Gothbarbie1313 · Unread post by **Gothbarbie1313** » Fri Jun 21, 2024 8:01 pm

Forgive my ignorance but what do you mean by reversed not being removed exactly?

Gothbarbie1313 ,

IF you are looking at a candle and the wax runs to the left it is going backward to the situation, if it goes to the right it is going forward. You asked about Block Buster and the wax was running counter-clockwise, that is not a positive sign for moving forward and opening a path.

Thank you for further explaining that

I really need to get that book.

NOT ASKING FOR A READING. Just help in understanding.

The front right of the candle (this one is figural if it matters) is the future. So if nothing spills or moves that way, nothing in the future will change. But if it does, then doing the spell was effective and will change things in the way I desire, correct?

Reading from a recent post by JayDee, the wax (especially at the front right) is going towards the front and to the right, so that is moving forward.

Feel free to correct me if I have this wrong. Thank you.

MrsSchaeffer2020 ,

Reading candles is an art and the interpreter may use different methods to determine that.

For example two figure candles facing one another the wax flowing together is both parties coming together, in this case the wax of one candle is running to the right and the other the left.

Now if the wax of candle one runs behind the figural but the wax of the other candle runs to the first candle it means one person is trying and the other person is moving away (not a good sign for reconciling work).

The form of figural candle also plays a role, a candle with no face may be read differently than one with one. A figural candle facing you and the wax flowing towards you as you work it, is a sign the person is being drawn or coming to you. If it flows from the back it is going away or not to you. Directionality depends on the candle, its purpose and the petitioners position in the work.

A glass candle I tend to read the right side as the future side.

If it does not flow one time it does not mean nothing will change, it may mean more work, look at the whole burn holistically to determine the outcome. Is there other signs along with the wax flow such as a strong flame, no smoke, signs in the wax.

Also many workers manipulate the candles to produce the outcome, some work them passively and let them burn, the choice is yours.
