This candle spell is meant to bless a
specific person or people.
Items Needed:
- White candle - plain or human
shaped
- Pin, Exacto Knife, or other candle
carving instrument
- Blessing oil or holy oil
Optional:
- Photo, personal item, or peron's
name written on paper
Instructions:
Get a white candle - either a plain one
(offertory, pillar, or taper) or a figural one in the gender of the
person you want to bless.
Carve the person's full name on the candle, then dress it with Blessing
Oil or Holy Oil.
For more power, you may place a name-paper of the person, or a photo, or
some personal item of theirs (such as a bit of hair or a snippet of
clothing) either under the candle or next to it. One easy way to do this
is to place the paper or personal concerns under an overturned saucer
and put the candle on top of the saucer.
Burn a portion of the candle every day for seven days, pinching it out
between burnings. As you light it each day, say this:
[Name], may you be blessed
May all good things come to you\
May nothing whatsoever harm you
May your heart be light
May your travels be safe
May your health be good
May your mind be sound
May your friendships sustain you
May you be blessed in every way
If you have a special request for this
person (such as that they find a lover, get a good job, come home safely
from a war, or whatever), just add it to the list.
Some people use a large pillar-type candle and keep it going for longer
than seven days.
They may make a habit of burning such a candle every day or once a week -
on Sundays, for example - for as long as their friend or relative needs
help, even doing so for months at a time.
If the candle is large and it is to be burned in this way, it should be
re-dressed with Blessing Oil or Holy Oil once a week: after the initial
dressing, you can drop a tiny bit of oil into the "well" or hole created
by the flame in such a large candle just before lighting it each time.
