How I started Doing Candle Rituals

Fifteen years ago, I was desperate to create a miracle. I was $5,000 short on my bills, fearful and unsure of how to get it. I prayed, and a friend suggested I pull out a white candle. So I did, and nothing happened.

Then I began studying, pulling out my mother's old books and reading up on the phases of the moon.

As a child, my mother gave astrology readings in the back of her antique store. People traveled from all over to have D read their charts. In those days, charts were done by hand, and my mother was quite good at it.

As I studied, I began to see the correlation between the phases of the moon, the planets and numerology.

As an experiment, I picked the new moon period, which is the time of new beginnings and happened to be only days away. I selected the day of Mars. There are usually three good intention-setting days around the new moon, and I wanted to pick the day that represented the planet for force and action. I pulled out my essential oils and doctored my candle. I spent two days energizing it in the moonlight, and then I added five crystals to represent the five energy sectors.

I did not know at the time that this would be the root of my candle intention work. It was my first experiment. The evening of the ritual, I wrote down what I was going to sit in expectancy of, placed my intention statement under the candle and lit it.

I kept it burning and every day, I read my intention and asked the power of intention to carry my request to those who I could be of service to. Within five days, unexpected checks arrived, and a few clients booked time. I had my $5,000.

When friends saw the work I was doing, word spread. People began coming to me and asking me to work with them on creating an intention ritual for them. At first I was hesitant, but slowly results began pouring in.

One woman came to me determined to heal herself. She had been diagnosed with early stages of uterine cancer. I created a healing intention ritual for her but warned her sternly: I am not a doctor. If it is required, you may need surgery. Don't rely upon this alone!

She lit the candle on the day of Jupiter. She began eating raw foods and completely changed her state of mind. She created her self-healing using the Healing Intention Candle Kit. Eight weeks later, they could not find the cancer. She had transformed herself.

Eight months ago, at the age of 41, she had her fourth child with her second husband. Her other kids are all teenagers.

Another client came to me because her house was in an uproar. Her oldest son was causing havoc with his addictions. Through a reading she discovered her part in the matter and chose to bring harmony to her home. In lighting her intention on the day of the Moon, she asked Spirit to bring harmony into her being.

As her candle burned, she opted to take her meditation to the park and contemplate harmony. She casually struck up a conversation with a young man who, himself, was enrolled in an inner city program that assisted young men in turning their lives around through being of service. He offered to help her.

Two weeks later, her son became involved in the program and today, he is well and working in horticulture. He found his inner harmony through nature and working with the inner city programs to create more natural habitats.

These are a few examples of intentions that have been set with the use of my products. But let me describe the development of these intention candles and what makes them unique.

First, the glass jar. It's sandblasted by hand with a message. Words are vital to the process, and I always wrote a message on the outside of the glass. In the old days, it was with an indelible marker!

Then there are five crystals placed in the jar. The Organic Soy is prepared by a Reiki practitioner who energizes the candles as she hand-pours each one. My candles are blended with the exact color and aromatherapy that resonates with the energy of your intention. And they weigh nearly 3 pounds to burn for seven continuous days.

By the time your candle reaches you, it has been blessed and infused with the power of your intention. Your Intention Candle Kit contains a booklet with simple, yet detailed instructions on how to create your intention.

You are about to step into a new realm.

If you have a must-happen in your life...something that MUST HAPPEN, I can't urge you enough to try one of the Intention Candle Kits. There is no right one. Choose the one that calls to you. And, then prepare for a miracle. Someone or something will shift.

Many blessings!
