Saint Expedite Red Candle Spell Altar for “Fast Luck” & “Things in a Hurry”

Posted by Jacqueline on Jul 10th, 2009 in Altars, St. Expedite Fast Luck Candle Spell | Comments Off on Saint Expedite Red Candle Spell Altar for “Fast Luck” & “Things in a Hurry” Saint Expedite, or San Expedito, is a well loved Saint around New Orleans. It has been reputed that he is the Saint to petition when you need “Fast Luck” or when you need ‘things in a hurry’. He is also the Saint to petition when someone is procrastinating about an issue. Above, we show a simple alter set up for St. Expedite. An image, framed photograph or chromograph or statue (we show both), a glass of water and a candle anointed with either “St. Expedite” or “Fast Luck” Condition Oils (both available through www.lucky13clover.com ). The only other addition may be a petition written on a piece of white paper and placed under the candle. Once the petition or wish has been granted, legend tells that you must offer him a glass of red wine and some pound cake. Some variations on the offerings can be the whole pound cake or slices arranged on a plate with a coin (usually a dime) placed on top. Once a few days have passed, take the cake outside for the birds and pour the wine and water down the drain. Give the coins to the poor. Some say that despite their efforts to ‘work’ with Saint Expedite, he does not respond to them. I have heard that either you have much success or no success with St. Expedite.  ...

Posted by Jacqueline on Feb 28th, 2008 in St. Expedite Fast Luck Candle Spell, Various Saints Candle Spells | Comments Off on Free Candle Spells | More About St. Expedite/ Saint Expedite/ San Expedito Candle Spell     To continue with writing about my experiences with working with Saint Expedite, you should understand that the idea of working with him, whom I classified as a “non-saint” (again, he is not on the Catholic roles of saints), was probably one of the three major roadblocks with traditional Southern hoodoo/conjure that I futzed about (East Coast expression meaning “reluctantly worked over”). Sure, I have my Saint Marin de Porres, Virgen de la Regla, Saint Therese Little Flower, Our Lady of Grace/La Miligrosa, and other Saints in which I work with, but these were listed in the book of Saints. I have to offer you an instance in which I DID not honor St. Expedite his proper offering and the actions he decided to create. I had petitioned him for an amount of money (always, with teenagers, pleez!) and he came through for me. I kept forgetting to remember to get the red wine and pound cake when at the grocers. One day, my daughter Bea reminded me as we were making strawberry shortcake said, “Mom, aren’t you supposed to give that guy (typical teenager) something?”, with a nod of her head in direction of his framed picture. “Oh yeah, I keep forgetting”, I said as I take a small cake from the shortcake cups package, and opened a bottle of chardonnay, pouring him a glass, giving it to him, telling him this will “have to do for now”, then returning to the task at hand. Weeelllll….lemme tell ya. After three days, the wine turned a light blush pink (really!) and the money flittered away through my hands like water. I learned my lesson to make sure I pay him promptly and to never again throw him a bone when he needs the whole meal!      ...

Posted by Jacqueline on Feb 26th, 2008 in St. Expedite Fast Luck Candle Spell, Various Saints Candle Spells | Comments Off on Free Candle Spells | St. Expedite/ Saint Expedite/ San Expedito Candle Spell   Saint Expedite holds a place in the hearts of many hoodoo, conjure, root workers and residents of New Orleans. Because he is so well loved, I am dedicating a page to him and his works. Here is how you can petition him for assistance.   Ingredients 1 Red Glass 7-day Novena Candle 1 Bottle “Fast Luck” Oil 1 Piece of White Paper (preferably parchment) After your petition or amount of money is granted: Many would like to believe that they will assuredly get their wishes granted if they “feed” St. Expedite first, but this is not the traditional ‘way’ to interact with him as sometimes “St. Expedee” does not work with everyone. I have had personal experiences of  unsuccessful candle vigils and also certain petitions being granted partially or in a completely different way or outcome than I wanted. So it is believed that you reward Saint Expedite with the wine and pound cake after you get what you wanted. – J.   1 glass of Red Wine, 1 generous slice of Sara Lee Pound Cake (variations include 5 slices of pound cake and not only the Sara Lee brand, but pound cake in general) Clean your red candle in the traditional manner of using lemon juice or rubbing alcohol on the glass outside and the wax top inside of the candle. Set to let dry. Write your petition on the paper, stating a certain amount and the specific use for it, such as “I need $1000.00 to pay the homeowners insurance on my home that is due August 10th.” Anoint your candle with “Fast Luck” oil by applying a few drops into the top of the wax and circling the oil in a counter-clockwise motion while you pray to St. expedite to hear your petition for the amount written on the paper. Set glass novena candle on top of your petition paper which is in a small saucer or bowl to catch wax drips. Place a small glass of water next to your candle. St an image of St. Expedite * next to your glass of water. Light the candle while speaking to Saint Expedite, promising him that you will “pay” him with pound cake and red wine if he comes through for you. The Legend of Saint Expedite Legend has it that the Chapel of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in New Orleans was the recipient of statuary that was ordered from Europe. All the crates were marked with each Saints’ name including one crate that puzzled the nuns who received the shipment. Some said that a cadaver was contained inside; some say it was a Roman centurion soldier. Both versions of this legend has it that the word “EXPEDITE” or “EXPIDITO” was stenciled on the box. Here is where his connection with candle work for procrastinators and those who need money in a hurry comes in. Expedite is seen with his foot on the neck of a crow, which has a ribbon in his mouth with the word “CRAS” lettered on it. In Latin, the language spoken by the Romans at the time, the word “CRAS” means “tomorrow”. In addition, Expedite is holding a cross up in the air with his right hand. The word “HODIE” is on the crosspiece. The word “HODIE” is Roman for “today”. Hoodoo practitioners and Conjurers burn red candles to St. Expedite on Wednesdays, the day that was set aside for him. Wednesday is also the day for the messenger Mercury, the winged Roman God of Communication, and for the planet that shares his name. St. Expedite’s feast day is April 19th, however, venture into your local Catholic book...
