The Vision Board as seen on the Oprah Show | Part One

The Vision Board as seen on the Oprah Show | Part One Sometimes, great ideas come to use and despite the basis of this series of posts is not related to candle burning proper, it is the beginnings of creating a money altar to which you may burn your green money drawing candles in front of and on top of to bring financial success! As I was talking with my webmistress, Claudia, about stimulus checks, website stuff, taxes and such, she was relating to me about the latest segments on Oprah’s website. Now Claudia has been faithfully tuning in for the Eckhart Tolle series (of which I STILL have to garner time to view) , giving me the heads up on the series. She then told me she saw an Oprah show about vision boards with Louise Hay, motivational speaker and owner of the publishing firm, Hay House. She asked me if I knew anything about vision boards and I told her that Catherine Ponder used to write about them in her books back in the 70’s. Ms. Ponder, a Unity Church minister as I am told, created a series of prosperity themed books such as “The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity” and “Pray and Grow Rich!”, I have read some of them and the vision board was detailed in how to create one in the book. Claudia was more informed about them as she had one quite a few years back and was in the process of creating a new one. I quickly decided to take the plunge and I will be creating a vision board right here with step-by-step instructions and photos to guide you on how to manifest your financial success! Ingredients A bulletin board or picture frame (glass optional) Photos cut out of magazines or print ads depicting what you want (i.e big diamond ring, photo of mansion, the Eiffel Tower or Tower of Pisa (if you want to go there), photos of stacks of greenbacks and mountain of coins, etc.) Photo of you (and your family, if applicable) naturally! Glue stick or hot glue gun Paint, fabric or any other embellishment you want to make this shiny bright and glowing (I am going to use 24K Gold Spray on the cork board) Extra embellishments could be a feng shui crystal ( to hang center front of board), real coins (encircle the frame by hot gluing them on), one dollar bills, gemstones. Let your imagination run wild with anything that looks RICH! Here is how I started my Vision Board: I took a cork board that I bought at the craft store and spray painted it gold 🙂 I then attached items that represented abundance and wealth. I placed in the center a Certificate of Faith that I received from Reverend Ike because it has uplifting and inspirational thoughts on this nifty green (for money) and beige paper. So official! I then wrote prosperity sigils in the corners of two $2.00 bills and signed my name to the area where the Treasurer of the United States’ signature is located. I used red ink since red is a power color and I always need money in a hurry (I have teenagers!). I glued the two $2.00 dollar bills at the top and the bottom of the Certificate of Faith and glues four Mardi Gras doubloons at the corners of the certificate. Last but not least, I glued a Chinese symbol of wealth, the gold bar, at the bottom center of the certificate. Check back in a few days to see what images I chose to apply to signify wealth and prosperity in my...

Practical Magic or Define your Priorities in Candle Burning Pt 2

This post is about an e-mail I received two days ago from a young lady who wanted to inquire of my services. Her letter reads (identity not revealed to protect the e-mail author): Hello, I have seen your contact Information in (a referral website) website. How effective is it in getting back to my relationship which is broken 9 months ago. How do i approach you. Thanks, No name or any identifying clues if this person is male or female. So my answer was: Hi there, I would like to know the following information: Your name, would be nice 🙂 Why did you wait 9 months before considering a reconciliation spell? What was the reason you broke up? Do you think that the mindset and situation has changed so that there will be no repeats? Jacqueline Shortly thereafter I receive this e-mail: Hi Jacqueline, My name is (identity protected). I waited 9 months because i just wanted to give it some time for him to realise and come back to me but in vain. He is married and had problems with his marital life and wanted to leave his wife. He used to like me so much and He told that he never liked his wife but still he went back to her. What do i do and iam not really sure if he really liked me or played with my emotions, but i got too involved to come out of it and i need his love back. I think he broke with me as he thought that he was not doing justice to my love. We stay very close by but never called or met after for the past 9 months. I do not want to be like strangers or enemies with him by not communicating. I would really appreciate if you can please help me with this problem. Regards, (identity protected) So, I then sent this person this e-mail: (identity protected) I really think that your emotions have been played with and that you have given him way too much time (9 months). I am not sure if you have worked with any other spiritual worker, but I do not think anything will work now since so much time has passed. Have you had the folks at (referral company) burn candles for you? That could be a start, but the feeling in my heart it is no success. Better to work on bringing into your life someone who is available and willing to commit (since this man cannot commit to his marriage or to leave it as well). Let me know when you are ready to do so. Jacqueline So, later in the day, I receive this e-mail: Jacqueline, Thanks for the reply. I didn’t know about love spell castings before and i have just learned about them. I am not sure how they work and how success they are? I just wanted to give it a try. There are many relationships which broke apart and got back together. I do not think time should be the factor but the feelings which matters. I haven’t approached (referring company) to do anything from their side. What does burning candles mean and how does it effect my current situation. Please advise me what should i do to either forget him completely or get him back. Either one of the options are ok with me. Regards, (identity protected) So I answered her with this: (identity protected), The comment “Either one of the options are ok with me” tells me that you need to be the one who decides and not give your decision power to someone else so that if...

Free Candle Spells | Practical Magic or Define your Priorities in Candle Burning Pt 1

Last week, I had a third call in as many weeks from a person who was having problems with her surrounding neighbors. It was regarding her 10 acres and the keeping of 19 dogs on the property. She told me that at one time when the property was available for purchase, her neighbors were outbid by this persons’ parents. She indicated that she felt that the frequent referrals to the animal control services were in retaliation of the deceased parents ability to possess the property than them. Once I had invested another 30 minutes in giving her ethical spiritual counseling with tips and techniques with success with a black candle burn for her neighbors, this person tells me that she does not have a functional toilet in which to dispose of the black candle. She tells me that when she needs to use the toilet, she goes to he local gas station. Whaaaattttt? Right there, that tells me that this person does not have their priorities in check. Having 19 dogs, well I can justify that she does own 10 acres and that would seem big enough for them to roam, despite the amount that she puts out every month for care and food for the animals. To not have a functioning bathroom in which you can eliminate waste gives me the impression that her life is “going to the dogs”. I asked her why would she spend money to call me to ask for candle work and supplies when she should be taking care of her home. She responded that she “knows but she has to get the four dilapidated vehicles off her property before the end of the month.” Even more evidence of not only a negative magnet for more problems and her money is going down. If you are even a dabbler in Feng Shui, you know that clutter and broken things like appliances and old clothing, boxes and such give energy to negativity and thus needs to be removed either by donating the items that can be repaired to a charity, having things taken to the dump, and a big recycling effort to get rid of any old newspapers, boxes and stuff that sits and collects dust. I told her that once she has done that, give the whole house a good cleaning and the void produced by getting rid of old things, along with a good housecleaning, should give her a brighter outlook on life, get her priorities in line and maybe get the neighbors off her back. I told her then and only then would I consider doing candle work for her. Why burn candles for prosperity if you can’t take care of yourself? You are asking the Universe to give you money so that you could quite possibility “throw it to the dogs” some more. Basic human living conditions are far more important in my world than pets, regardless of the loving devotion they give you. It is unfortunate that in this same week, we have a story in our area about someone who had a house overran with cats. I am a cat person myself, but with my busy schedule and traveling, I couldn’t give enough time to my pet to make his life a quality one with my schedule. This is why I choose with consciousness, not to own a pet.    ...
