This is a quick uncomplicated ritual designed to be used for all positive purposes.
You’ll need one candle of the appropriate color (see Tables of Magickal Correspondence), one holder (unless it’s a seven-day candle), and matches.
When you’re ready to begin, hold the candle between the palms of your hands.
* Breathe deeply.
* Visualize your goal.
* Push personal. programmed power into the candle between your hands.
* Feel the energy streaming into it.
Say appropriate words if you wish (create your own chant according to the instructions in Chapter Nineteen of Earth, Air, Fire & Water: More Techniques of Natural Magic), simply stating what you need to occur.
* Place the candle in its holder.
* Strike a match above the candle and draw down the flame toward the candle. Light the wick.
* Put the still-flaming match into a heat-proof container (or extinguish its flame with a quick flip of the wrist).
* Hold your hands around the candle’s flame. Feel the energy. Visualize strongly.
Leave the area. Let the candle do its work.
