Money Candles will be hand poured on December 22 (after 6 PM EST) through December 23 of 2014.

I have checked the ephemeris to be sure of the days and time for pouring Money candles. I am pleased to say that I can pour beginning at 6 PM on 12/22/14 and continue through 12/23/14 ending at that same time. These Money candles will thus be Sun Capricorn & Moon Capricorn, and will be most excellent for business concerns, matters of real property, long term investments, and plans to attract as much wealth/money from your efforts and industry.

I have seen a variety of "money" candles for sale of late. Some are actually images of money, or symbols used to represent money. It seems that these are to be burned to attract money. In general, one does not set fire to that which one wants. Metaphysically, burning money, or symbols of money is not the best way to attract wealth. I am pleased to post that I will be pouring for Monday late December of this year. I realize that it is inconvenient of me not to have Money candles more readily available. In general I pour three times a year - when the Sun in in an Earth sign, and her sister the same. 

Should you need to purchase a mass produced candle for your meditation and/or ritual, know that there are sites that will teach you how to empower that candle. Please visit this article to gain a deeper insight than you may now have on candle rituals I have also another post on the meaning of Moon Phases & Magic. 

As I hand pour my candles, as they are poured by no one else, seen by no one else..... and poured to the phase of the Moon, I pour as many as I can each time. In general I am currently able to pour 2 or 3 dozen a Sun sign. 

Many money candles are mass produced in factories.  Mass produced items most always lack the power of focused intent. Intention is everything is manifestation. It is your intention and focus that actually brings the things you want, money, love, healing or success into your life. 

If you choose a ritual tool, a meditation support, that is created with the intent that you should manifest that which you seek, this tool will be more powerful than a mass produced item because the maker will be creating your candle (or other tool) with the one pointed intention that the object be specifically created to help you achieve your purpose. 

I will use traditional herbal fragrances that have gained power for their purpose. I look forward to posting a link to the new candles when they are ready. 

Update 10/2020: I am no longer pouring candles. Thanks to all who supported the magic. Peace

From my hand to yours,

Ann George

Money Candles poured Sun Capricorn, Waxing Moon Capricorn

The new collection of Money Candles was hand poured to Attract Wealth  on 
December 22, 2014 at 4:00 PM EST. For those who wish to cast a full ephemeris, the co-ordinates are 30:19W, 81:39N.

This day offered the Sun in the Cardinal Earth sign of Capricorn which offers practical, disciplined, analytic and ambitious energy to the candle. Capricorn energy is excellent for success in business, and combined with the energy of Waxing Moon in Capricorn,  these candles are particularly helpful for those who wish to do ritual or meditations to increase their business incomes. 

As has been mention before on this blog, the increasing or Waxing Moon is the time to pour candles for those things we wish to attract into our lives.

I often choose Moon Taurus for money candles because Taurus is a fixed Earth sign.  Fixed signs are perfecting and finishing signs. However, this pour, the Moon was Waxing to Full in Capricorn. To have a cardinal Earth sign Moon combined with the cardinal Earth sign Sun is a very good energetic offering to bring money into your life. 

Capricorn energy is often noted for bringing reliable, practical and ambitious energy to the pursuit of wealth, pleasure and success. Like all Earth signs, Capricorn is magnetic, and generating. 

As you can see, the primary planetary influences for the pour are most excellent to help you achieve your goals. As always, an affirmation created to help you affirm and attract wealth for the greatest good is included with your purchase. You are the magic, the candle is a powerful focusing tool to help you accomplish your goals. 

As these money candles are all hand poured by Ann George and not seen nor handled by another, the collection is limited. As the heavens are in constant motion, the timing of the pour also brings special energies you may use to your advantage.

Moon pouring of candles is based on the idea that we live in an interdependent, vibrational world of energetic phenomena... appearing as solid, or real. If you are able to agree that all is ultimately energy, and that the melting of wax at an auspicious time will allow the wax to be "tuned" to the energy of that time, then moon poured candles will be valuable to you.

Here are a few planetary moments I find very encouraging. If you are somewhat familiar with beneficial aspects, this information will be very helpful for you:

Sun :  1 Capricorn 49   + 0:00' (-)  9th house
Moon: 24 Capricorn 26   + 4:58' (F)  9th house
Mercury: 10 Capricorn 27  - 2:06' (-)  9th house 
Venu: 16 Capricorn 22  - 1:09' (-)  9th house 

Candles are for sale online. PayPal handles the transactions. I do not take your credit card information by phone.  Shipping by Priority Mail is included in the price. I do not ship outside the USA. Candles are sold on first come, first served basis. Due to the energetic nature, all sales are final. Please feel welcome to contact me before you make your purchase.
Update 10/2020: I am no longer pouring candles. Thanks to all who supported the magic. Peace

(Recently I have seen money candles offered for sale that are made in the likeness of dollars, coins, or icons for money. In western culture, we do not burn what we value. The idea of burning the image of what we want is - to me - counterintuitive.)

Protection Candles • Samhain Poured • Hand Poured Black Candles

I am very pleased to be able to place my Protection Candles for sale today. Although I poured these, as I always do, into the midnight on October 31 so that they cool on All Saints Day. They were not ready to sell until just recently.

The candles were stored to be as fresh today as they were on the day they were poured, but the night was so powerful, and the pour required such concentrated attention, that the candles needed to rest with me for a time before the were "cured" and ready to offer to you at the greatest benefit. 

The mystery of energy work, magic, root work (call it what you will), is that there are times when sacred objects, once created, have their own process of coming to power. I feel confident that the candles are "solid" and that you will now benefit from their use.

There are many articles on this blog that address the nature and right use of Protection Candles. I will now post the link to the shopping cart for this candle at my Mystic Candle Store and a few notes on the benefits of the astrology of the pour. (Each candle comes with instructions, affirmation & an ephemeris so that you are best able to study and put to good use the various planetary aspects that were "captured" on the pour date.)

The planetary aspects I find most interesting are:

• Sun Scorpio was conjunct Mercury Scorpio: excellent aspects for mediumship work
• Sun Scorpio was conjunct the Node in Scorpio: use as you please
• Sun Scorpio was conjunct Saturn in Scorpio: a powerful combination for those seeking to master occult skills - as well to help release limitations to spiritual development. 
• Sun was also fortunately placed Sextile to Pluto & Mars. All three of these planets were in Earth signs providing a grounding energy during a time when the veil between the worlds is considered by many to be at its thinnest. 

Should you care to review more of the fortunate aspects of this pour, I invite you to visit Chaos Astrology to cast a full ephemeris for the moment. (Co-ordinates are listed on the shopping cart page.)

The collection is limited to 16 candles - a raw total give us 7. Due to their energetic nature, All Sales Are Final. 

Update 10/2020: I am no longer pouring candles. Thanks to all who supported the magic. Peace

Thank you for your kind attention to my post. 

Money Candles with Sun Taurus and Moon Virgo

Money candles were hand poured on April 30th with the wealth the Sun in the fixed Earth sign of Taurus. Taurus is a magnetic sign, and it brings the energy of  determination, focused attention, and a strong appreciation for material possessions. Fixed signs are perfecting and finishing signs therefore excellent to help you focus your attention on attracting money.  

The waxing, or increasing Moon was in the Earth sign of Virgo. Virgo is also an Earth sign which brings flexible, adaptable energy to your efforts to create wealth and attract money. It is therefore very fortunate to pour money candles in the Earth signs, and this collection brings double Earth energy to your meditations. 

Earth signs are receptive, magnetic and generating signs, thus the signs best suited to the energy of material possession. They are the most fortunate signs in which to pour candles to attract wealth, and in this case to use executive planning skills to help build 

wealth.

It is always useful to pour candles to attract things to you when the moon is increasing in size - or waxing to full.  

Poured in a long burning natural wax, these Money candles will be a shade of money green. They are an excellent magical tool to help you create wealth & to manage it wisely. There are only 36 pillars in this collection. They are sold on first come, first served basis.

The affirmation included on the label is written specifically to empower you to attract money. Please follow the instructions on the label for best success. 

Protection Candle - Deep Black - Raven's Feather Wax

On October 31, 2011 at 10:30 PM, in sacred space, with focused intent, Protection candles were hand poured by practicing mystic and Usui Reiki Master Ann George.

For centuries, this date has been acknowledged as the time when the veils between the worlds is thinnest. Rituals, spiritual practices and chants have been done for to invoke energies from other realms.

In an effort to ensure that your home, your energy body, your personal environment remains clean, sacred, and protected from unwanted spiritual energies, Ann George hand pours Protection candles for your benefit.

Candles are scented with traditional herbal fragrances used for many years for protection; to ward of evil spirits; to remove negative energies and to purify the environment.

Each candle comes with ritual instructions, an effective affirmation, as well as an ephemeris for those who are familiar with astrology. (This year the Waxing Moon was in Capricorn in the 5th House, and the Sun in Scorpio in the 3rd.)  Natural palm oil wax gives the candle a raven's wing texture. Supplies are limited to first come, first served.

Usually sold at $40 an each, this year, Ann George Studios, Inc. is offering the candle at $36.00 with free shipping by Priority Mail. There are only 18 left in stock. Please visit her mystic store

Success Candles: Hand Poured to Attract Wealth, Success, Abundance and Love

The new collection of Success candles was poured on Sunday, July 31, 2011 at 8:00 PM EDT.  These natural wax candles are a sunset orange color, and are scented with appropriate floral and herbal fragrances used for centuries to attract money, wealth, success, love and abundance.

The astrology of this Success candle collection further empowers these meditation pillars to help you achieve your goals. ( As always, each candle comes with complete instructions, an affirmation & an ephemeris of the pour date and time to enhance your rituals.)

This pour, the Sun was in the fixed Fire sign of Leo. Primary qualities of Leo energy (symbolized by the King of Beasts, the Lion) are very useful to help you achieve your goals. Known for courage, the will to rise above the ordinary, the desire and ability take charge of situations and tremendous determination and stamina, Leo energy is excellent to help you achieve success.

Even more exciting is the placement of the Moon for this candle collection. The Moon, Yin energy to the Yang of the Sun, was also in Leo. She was waxing to full, which as occultists know is the time to do work to generate, create and attract those things we want in our lives.

That both luminaries were in the the sign of Leo and both were in their natural home, the Fifth House, ruled by Leo is most fortunate!

Venus, the natural ruler of love, passions and emotional pleasure was also in Leo and in the fifth house for this pour. You will be able to enjoy discovering other useful planetary aspects when reviewing the enclosed ephemeris.

One of the outer planets is also fortunately placed to help bring success, wealth, respect, good fortune into your life. ** Please note, the candle in and of itself is helpful, but your repetition of the enclosed affirmation and your own positive actions are also required to bring maximum success into your life. **

For this collection, Jupiter, the great benefactor of the Zodiac, was in Taurus, the fixed earth sign of possessions and in the second house, the native house of the sign of Taurus. It is therefore reasonable to assume that the expansive energy of Jupiter will bless efforts to bring more material comforts your way.

If you would care to purchase a candle, please place your order as soon as possible. The candles are on sale at the Candle Store for $30 each. Free shipping by Priority Mail is included in the price. Candles are sold on a first come first served basis.

Protection Candles - Dove Grey Natural Wax Candles by Ann George

Moon poured Protection candles were hand poured in sacred space with clear intent on October 31, 2010 at 8:00 PM EDT. All Hallows Eve, also known as Samhain (Celtic) or Nos Galan Gaeaf (Welsh), has been celebrated for centuries. Sacred or Holy days that are traditionally observed for a special purpose are excellent time to pour candles as the energy or intent of that day blesses the pour.

In Western traditions All Hallows Eve has long been regarded as a day when veil that separates the world of the living from the realm of the dead is thin, and ancient traditions made this day either one of making offering to the dead or of taking care to ensure that the dead did not disturb the living.

I pour candles on this day with the intention that sacred space is maintained for the user of the candle. It may seem strange to some, but over the past ten years, it feels as if I am energetically welcomed to pour by those energies that abide in unseen spiritual realms.

Just as we are careful when we travel to a new city or country, so too is it wise to be careful when we travel between the worlds. Those who are new to divination, or who are are in active occult practice will find these candles very useful, as the candles are "charged" to ensure that unwelcome, malevolent, disruptive or damaging spiritual energies do not cross the veil. As well, they are a fragrant and visual offering for those who wish to honor the gatekeepers as well as to remain focused on the work at hand.

The above observations may seem grandiose on my part, only if you forget that the magic is in your mind, and the candle is a tool to help focus your intention to create and keep sacred space. As well, should it be the case that your sacred space has been disturbed in some way, this candle is an excellent tool to help you return your environment to a healthy vibration. More information on this concept is available online in the House Blessing page of my store.

A brief review of the planetary aspects of the pour show that the Waning Moon was in Leo in the 12th House, and the Sun in Scorpio in the 4th. These natural wax candles are scented with rosemary, cedar, cypress, frankincense, myrrh & other ancient fragrances for psychic and spiritual protection. Prayers were said, mantra chanted, and the natural wax melted slowly in pots of boiling water. The energy of Fire and Water united to melt the Earth aspect ( wax ) in the Air energy of spoken sacred sounds.

To chart the ephemeris and an overview of the aspects of the pour which occurred at 8:00 PM EDT, you will need the following co-ordinates: 30° 19' 54" N / 81° 39' 20" W. I prefer to cast the ephemeris feature online at Chaos Astrology.

If you care to purchase one, please know this is a limited collection. (An interesting note is that this collection of candles were poured in a month of five Fridays, five Saturdays, and five Sundays. This pattern of five days repeats every 11 years or so.) I have twelve for sale at present at a cost of $40.00 each. Shipping is Free in the USA. I do not ship out of the country.

Due to the energetic nature of these candles, which have not been handled by any one other than their maker, returns are not accepted and all sales are final.  Please contact me before you purchase if you have any questions. You might also like to visit other articles on my site for more information. Some you may find useful are: Ritual Candles: an article on candle ritual and mysticism, or Moon Phases and Ritual Candles.

New True Love Candles Poured 10.10.2010. - Rare Combination of Aspects and Timing

Although the Sun was in an Air sign and the Moon in Water, there was a sense of "comsic" urgency to pour candles to help you bring good, sweet, true long lasting emotional/sexual love into your life.

I just ran the "birth chart" for the pour courtesy of Chaos Astrology and now feel astrologically quite validated in the selection of the day and time.  

Should you wish to run your own program, here are the particulars of the pour: 

Date: 10/10/2010  Time: 9:30  AM EDT ( -4 GMT)

Location: Jacksonville, FL USA: 81 degrees 42 minutes West/ 30 degrees 30 minutes North

For those who are regular customers, you are accustomed to a Sun/Water Moon/Earth combination of luminaries for love candles. I will pour those again of course, but these interesting times create interesting energies. 

For those interested in numerology the excitement of a candle poured on the tenth day of the tenth month of the tenth year of this century is obvious. The candles were cooling at 10:00 AM Eastern. 

I often go to greater lengths to explain the timing of a pour. I think the natal chart speaks for itself. If you are interested to purchase, please click the title of this post to go to my Ritual Candle Store. An affirmation is included with this candle as well as an ephemeris for your reference. 

As always, candles are poured in a natural palm oil wax, fragrances are traditional herbal magic scents to attract love. We are a green company, purchasing materials from local merchants and shipping in biodegradable packaging, using green energy products to produce your candle. 

Candles ship next day via Priority Mail in the USA. Shipping is included in the price of your candle.

Protection Candles are Available for Sale

This exclusive collection of hand poured ritual candles was poured at 3:30 PM EDT, October 31, 2009. Mystics and occultists know the planetary day and hour for creating ritual objects impacts the spiritual power of that object. Should you care to cast a chart, notice 30° 19' 54" N / 81° 39' 20" W as the longitude & latitude of the pour.

The natural wax candles are scented with rosemary, cedar, cypress, frankincense, myrrh & other herbal ancient fragrances for psychic self-defense and spiritual protection.

A few notes from the ephemeris of the day show the following fortunate aspects:
Sun Scorpio - Conjunct Mercury Scorpio
Waxing Moon Aries - Sextile Jupiter
Venus in Libra - Trine Neptune in Aquarius.
Moon Aries - Trine Mars in Leo
Jupiter in Aquarius - conjunct Neptune in Aquarius.

In the Western Mystery Tradition, the veil between the worlds is thinnest on All Hallow's Eve. Other spiritual traditions, particularly celtic rites, celebrate this day as Samhain.

These natural wax candles are deep charcoal gray with feathering, like a dark angel's wing. They are excellent prayer candles to gather strength, or to request spiritual, physical or psychic protection. Each protection candle comes with a unique ritual affirmation skillfully written by Ann George to call down ancient energies to heal and protect the body, mind and spirit.

Candles are $40 each, with free shipping by Priority Mail in the USA only. As many customers have already pre-ordered, at present there are only 24 candles available to purchase.

Candles are poured, finished and sealed both spiritually, and in cellophane before the end of the day - 10.31.09. No one has handled them other than the maker. They will ship from my hand to yours. This attention to detail, to color, fragrance, timing & intent is what makes my hand poured candles different than other candles you may purchase elsewhere.

To The Manor Born - Love, Wealth, Success Candle

I am very fortunate to have had the suggestion of Christopher Warnock to time this pour. He has published an article & event chart that offers a detailed explanation of the aspects of the pour time.

The timing of this pour was adjusted for the Eastern Time as well as the Studio location so that the most fortunate aspects listed by Mr. Warnock would be captured. The event date for these candles is 1/5/09 at 11:48 PM Eastern Time. The location, Jacksonville, Florida. If you would like to see an excellent in depth report for this moment, I hope you will visit Chaos Astrology and run a free chart for your self. Here are a few more highlights of the fortunate aspects of the pour:

For Success in Life:
Sun in Capricorn, Sun Trine Saturn, Sun Semi-square Venue, Sun Trine Moon.
Moon in Taurus,Moon Square Jupiter, Venus in Pisces sextile Pluto, Mars in Capricorn, Neptune in Aquarius.

For Wealth: Moon in Taurus, Moon Trine Mars, Moon Square Mercury, Moon Square Jupiter.

For Love:Venus in Pisces, Sun Semi-Square Venus, Moon in Taurus Sextile Venus.

For those who are new to astrology & moon poured candles, all the above may seem a bit confusing. The short of it is that both the Sun & Moon were in Earth Signs, which is an excellent combination of luminaries to pour for money, wealth, or business success.

That the Sun Capricorn is Trine (favorably aspected) the Moon Taurus, Trine Saturn in Virgo are very favorable aspects for those meditating to attract not only money, but prosperity, good fortune, and influence .. or good reputation.

I could go on at length, but will leave you to do your own research using links are in this article or links to astrology sites posted in the Blogs & Links menu.

These candles are now ready for sale. I poured a baker's dozen and only Eight Candles Remain. When they are gone....... there can be no more quite like them.

Reiki Healing Candles - Full Moon Poured

This Reiki healing candle collection was poured in sacred space, to sacred sounds with the clear intention that you are comforted in mind and spirit in particular. Usui Reiki Master Ann George pours these natural wax candles when planetary influences and aspects are at their vibrational best for the desired healing outcome.

In the case of these hand poured candles, both luminaries were in compatible mutable & masculine signs. This post will review the basics of the astrology of the pour from the Western tradition.

This healing candle collection was poured December 12, 2008 with the Sun in Sagittarius. The process began at 8:30 AM Eastern when the Full Moon in Gemini was making a series of fortunate aspects for blessing with the outer planets. The pour concluded at 10:00 AM to avoid Moon Void of Course.

The vibrational benefit of Sun, reflecting the higher face of natural mind, in Sagittarius is the mutable fire energy for both direct, energetic action as well as the energy of adaptability, transformation, purification and comfort with change. Fire has long been associated with both spirit & purification, so to melt wax over open flame during Sun Sagittarius energetically honors & "captures" the best of the moment.

That the intent of these candles is to help you achieve mental healing as you see fit, is therefore more likely when the Sun is in a Fire sign, and a mutable Fire sign at that. I hope this is clear. More information about the astrology of candle pouring is online in this blog & at my primary site.

To be sure, Sun in Sagittarius is only one piece of the energy puzzle relevant to the pouring of these healing candles. That the Moon was full in the Mutable Air sign of Gemini makes the blessing of Sun in Sag all the more useful. This is true because pouring healing candles when both luminaries are in compatible signs is more useful than pouring when the Sun & Moon are in signs that are not naturally compatible.

Gemini, as mentioned, is a mutable Air sign, thus the same flexible, adaptable & versatile nature associated with Sagittarius is present in the Lunar influence of Moon Gemini. Further, Air signs are known to be the signs most adept at mental activities. Gemini, sign of the twins, is noted for seeing in terms of relationship to the other. This is particularly useful to create healing candles design to help us free ourselves from negative, habitual thought patterns, or perhaps tendencies to isolate, or to think in very self-centered ways.

Another important Lunar note is that on 12/12/08 the Moon was at it's Perigee. The energetic importance of this could be argued, however, we do know the pull of the moon and it's effect on water, oceans, tides etc. is not arguable. As we are composed of water, the pull of this lovely Full Moon may well effect the natural wax as it melts and cools again to form your Reiki healing candle.

For now, I know that some are waiting to purchase these candles. They are labeled and sealed in cellophane to preserve the Cypress Garden fragrance. If you would like to purchase, shopping cart buttons are on line at the Mystic Candle Store. Shipping by Priority Mail is included in the price, and orders received before 1:00 PM may ship the same day, if not, most certainly the next day.

New Moon Healing Candles - Reiki Healing on the Solar Eclipse

This limited collection of Reiki candles was poured February 6, 2008 with the Sun in Aquarius. The process began at 7:30 PM Eastern when the New Moon in Aquarius was conjunct Chiron and continued into and through the New Moon in Aquarius at 10:44 PM EST.

With both luminaries in Aquarius, the fixed Air sign of Hopes, Dreams, Friends and Wishes the energy of the night was excellent to accomplish a healing candle.

This pour also took advantage of Waning Moon energy to release illness & New Moon energy to draw to us what we wish for. Fixed sign energy is excellent for perfecting and finishing. Air sign energy is flexible, adaptable, versatile. These qualities of Aquarius were chosen for this collection, in part because the frequency, or the energetic footprint of this combination seems helpful to people who are praying for healing.

The Waning Moon energy is the energy of release, of letting go of things we no longer find useful. Thus, the pouring of the candles began as the Moon slipped from Waning to New. The New Moon time is symbolic of the unseen potential to illuminate one's path, or to bring the existing light (healing) into fullness.

Dikki-Jo Mullen notes:

The Mardi Gras Festival and Ash Wednesday coincide with a solar eclipse at 17 Aquarius on February 6. The Sabian Symbol for this degree appropriately reads "A Person Unmasked". Analysis, taking away illusions and seeing through them, is the theme.

The fixed star Nashira is near the eclipse as well as the elusive and illusionary planet Neptune. Nashira means "She who brings good news." or "The Fortunate One" in Arabic. Nashira's presence turns hardship to success. Evil is overcome by goodness."

Clearly, both Western & Sabian notes are auspicious for pouring healing candles on this day. Checking the Tibetan calendar, we see that February 6 is a Water/Earth Element Conjunction. This combination is the third of the auspicious combination. Engaging in joyful activities on this day is said bring great good fortune and happiness.

These candles were poured in sacred space in a room filled with sacred & joyful sound. In particular, a healing Sanskrit mantra played throughout the pouring. The turquoise color was carefully chosen, as were the gentle scents used to create the Bamboo Garden healing fragrance. Additional information and the shopping cart should you choose to purchase is online at my candle store. There are 16 candles available for sale.

Capricorn Sun/ Taurus Moon Money Candles

The latest collection of money candle to attract wealth, were hand poured on Thursday, January 17, 2008. On this day we had the Sun in Capricorn, the cardinal Earth sign excellent for starting a new business or perfecting existing business plans.
The Moon was waxing to full in Taurus, the fixed Earth sign that benefits the accumulation of possessions, land, and the perfection of wealth. As you may already know, the waxing Moon is best used for attracting things into our lives. When pouring candles during a waxing Earth Moon, it is reasonable that our efforts to attract material possessions will therefore be more likely to succeed.
I always pour candles to attract money, wealth, and material possession in double Earth energy... (both Sun & Moon in Earth signs.) On January 17, 2008 Jim Shawvan, noted astrologer whose opportunity periods are listed in 2008 Daily Planetary Guide (Llewellyn's Daily Planetary Guide), notes an Opportunity Period "After Moon squares Neptune until Moon enters Gemini. Good for making practical decisions and productive work.", so of course, I poured during this time and left the canldes to cool during the Moon Taurus trine Sun Capricorn aspect at 9:05 PM Eastern.
In Tibetan Astrology, January 17 offered a "Desire" conjunction with elements in Wind/Fire combination. Now.. please know that I only a reporting the aspects, and in no way representing myself as anything other than a stumbling student of this great mystic tradition.
That said, a Desire conjunction indicates fullfillment of vows, desires and ideas. The Fire/Wind elemental combination is "the third of the favorable combinations. The energy of this day encourages the gathering of vitality and strength for auspicious engagements." To purchase, please click the title of this post.
Thank you for your time & attention.
