Love Candles - Important Notes Before Burning.

Each of my love candles is poured at the very best time for you to accomplish your goals. This year the Sun was in Taurus, the Moon in Scorpio which is excellent energy to attract a stable, long lasting relationship You may burn these candles at any time. 

It is critical that you repeat the included affirmation at least 10 times with each lighting.  

It is also very important that you have given serious thought to just what kind of love interest you want.   

The Universe will provide what you ask for. Please be complete! Please think about what you want to offer your beloved as well as what you want to receive from that person.          

It is dangerous to ask for someone who is going to “love you for the rest of your life”!! Each of us has our own understanding of what love is. Therefore, it is important that you think about some of these concerns:

• How much time do you want to spend with your true love.Do you want to marry?

• Do you want children? 

• What is your food lifestyle? 

• What kinds of recreation do you prefer?

• How much exercise do you require. 

• What level of education is important to you. 

• What spiritual path will your lover follow? 

The list can go on….. but these simple questions are very important to help you find just what you are looking for. 

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

Money Candles | Hand Poured in the Earth Signs | 1/14/11

The new collection of Money candles was poured on January 14, 2011 with the Sun in the cardinal Earth sign of Capricorn and the Waxing Moon in the fixed Earth sign of Taurus.

The ephemeris included on the back of the label gives even more information about the auspicious planetary aspects of this pour.  These are natural wax pillar candles, hand poured in full attention in sacred space to be of greatest benefit to you as you train your mind to attract wealth, abundance and prosperity in the form of Money.

Here are a few notes on the importance of the planetary aspects of the pour: Earth signs are generating, magnetic and attractive signs traditionally associated with vital material concerns. Cardinal signs are those that initiate the seasons and thus candles poured with the energetic blessing of cardinal signs are generally thought of as useful for initiating change.

When it comes to breaking negative though patterns about wealth, money, abundance and success,  Capricorn energy is very useful.  Fixed signs offer perfecting and finishing energy, thus the energy of the sign of Taurus is fortunate to "capture" in a pouring to help one keep to the task of reframing thought.

It is important to remember that ritual candles are tools to empower you to manifest money. The candle is an aid, a very carefully crafted tool to help you reach your goal. Each candle comes labeled with the date and time of pour, instructions for use, and an affirmation written specifically to help you become one with true abundance.

People will sometimes ask if these candles work. My best reply is that if you use them as directed, then you will experience benefit. The best use is to light daily, repeating the enclosed affirmation a minimum of then times, closing the meditation, and returning to this practice daily until the candle is consumed.

All candles from Ann George Studios, Inc. are scented with fine quality fragrance oils that are traditional in European mysticism for attracting money. The fragrances are earth energy scents and are carefully combined to create both a pleasant and an effective fragrance.

Candles are $30 each with free shipping by Priority Mail in the USA. To order visit The Ritual Candle Store.

Ritual Candles - Questions & Answers About Use & Care

I am pleased to post this questions and answer discussion between myself & a remarkable customer, with her kind permission. i feel that the topics covered will be of benefit to all who use candles for prayer, ritual & meditation. I will post the original letter first, and continue forward to the resolution.

Letter One - Feb 24, 2009:

Ann,

I purchased two candles from you and they have been wonderful. We recently moved and the candles were accidently damaged. The protection candle has a crack through the center and the wealth candle has a crush damage on the top and bottom.

I am concerned because we are experiencing some "bad luck." My intuition is telling me I should purchase a new set, but want to properly "lay to rest" the original candles. What is the proper method for handling the damaged candles?

Thank you so much,

Donna Y

My Reply:

Hello Donna,

Thank you for your letter. I have given your question a good deal of thought.
I always encourage people to trust their intuition, so if you want to lay the damaged candles to rest, then, wrap them in white paper, or black silk & keep them in a drawer somewhere... sort of "saving" them.

However, my own first thought is to burn them. The energy of the moment is still in the wax, regardless of appearance. The most useful, empowered way to lay them to rest for me would be to burn them up.

I don't advise that you do the meditation with them, but rather just light the wick & burn each candle as a candle, enjoy the light & the fragrance. I am interested to know which method you prefer.

Wishing you continued success in all things,

Ann George

Letter Two - Mar 2, 2009:

Ann,

I thought you might like to hear how things have progressed. I started burning the candles just outright and things got worse. I wrapped them as instructed and placed them in a drawer and things have improved again.
I wanted to give it time to confirm my suspicions. Sometimes energies in the universe can overlap and you think one thing is the cause and it turns out it is something else so I try to make sure I am eliminating the proper negative influence.

Anyway, we have seen an improvement since "silencing" the candles and plan on purchasing our new ones tonight. Thank you for all your assistance. Any additional insight you might have would be helpful on how to best lay to rest our troubled candles.

Namaste,

Donna

My Reply - March 3, 2009


Hello Donna,

Thanks so much for your note. I find it very interesting that the damaged candles seem to correlate to episodes of "not luck".
I feel confident that the intent of the candle cannot be damaged by damage to the pillar itself. So, in looking for insights, I am reminded of a traditional mystical "rule" to protect ones sacred objets, power objects, relics & spiritual images; to care for them & to keep them in sacred space.

In my own experience, once, accidentally, and in an impatient hurry, I damaged a sacred object. The damage was minimal, but my distress, shame about my carelessness & concern for the karmic repercussions was profound & energeticallly quite loud.

I felt bad about the damage done for days. I did purifications practices within my tradition to energetically repent and atone for my error. This worked for me, as I have a traditional that offers specific practices for such times. As well, I felt better for taking an action.

So, the suggestion of putting the candles to rest in a protected space may be best. (This is a reference to wrapping each of them in black silk & keeping them in a cabinet, drawer, some place where special things go.) It would be an atonement, and perhaps, over time, they may be a useful offering to burn when another atonement time is at hand. Again, your intuition is usually the best insight.

It is also possible that other factors are at play and energies are overlapping that make the burning of these particular candles coincide with other disturbances.
Simultaneously, there are times when the purification of karmas manifest as "troubles" especially when we are at the end of them. This is also true in energy healings when there seems to be a marked increase in all the symptoms of a disease just before there is a complete healing.

I really do thank you for sharing these experiences with me, and look forward to other notes you care to send. I am quite sure this question & answer sort of dialogue will also be useful to others who include candle work in their spiritual journey.

May I have permission to post our conversation to my blog? I will use any "pen name" you like.. or link back to any blogs you may be publishing if that would benefit you.
We may also get other insights should visitors care to comment.

I look forward to your reply.

With best regards,

Ann George

Letter Three - March 4, 2009:

Ann,

I am honored that you want to post our discussion. I also agree that it may take time to learn the true cause of our disturbance. Our life is filled with change, excitement and stress currently. Your candles are extremely potent and their influence is so obvious that I instantly thought of them as a source for our "trouble" when they were damaged. I only burn the money candle occasionally because I am not able to keep up with the success it brings if i burn it too often.

I am relieved to have your insight and instruction about the intent of the magic vs. the pillar as the source for the power they have. I am also taking steps to protect our space and dispel any negative chi that may be collecting as a result of these changes in our life. Perhaps, there is a negative force wanting to harm our candles and from your words I know I should not give power to that force. For now, I will protect the candles, monitor closely and attempt to narrow down further what is happening.

I will keep you posted. I know in the past when I was dealing with a negative force it took sometime to find the source and I was mislead a couple of times into thinking that I had figured it out. As I write this my intuition is telling me that this is important and that I was not thinking about this as a cause and I am taking a step in the right direction. Before, I was merely focused on the result of the accident to our candles and not thinking enough about the cause.

I think when our new candle arrives that I will protect it between use until this is resolved. Since you have sold out of the protection candles, I will meditate with the protection candle I have for guidance as to whether I can use it the same way by protecting it between uses. Your thoughts on this would be most welcome.

Again, you have helped me greatly. I am so appreciative of your guidance. Thank you for being a strong positive force for the universe.

Blessings,

Donna

UPDATE - March 4, 2009 10:22:57 AM

Amazing, I just have to tell you very quickly what has transpired in the last few minutes of writing to you last. I called my husband to discuss our e-mails and to ask him to pick up a few items for me to perform my regular rituals.

Writing to you helped me to focus and channel myself to understand what is happening to us. So much has been revealed to me further by talking this through with him and I am seeing where I let myself be distracted from my rituals and am seeing the result in these disturbances.

We moved into a "new" house of a friend. I really like the neighborhood, my friend and the house. For a variety of reasons, I neglected and put off some of my normal rituals for cleansing and preparing our sacred space. I also ignored the warning signs I had been getting from my new neighbor who has become an instant friend but does not realize he's been trying to show me the dissonance in my new home caused by the previous tenants.

In particular, one person who used to live there was very set on sucking the life out of the house and money from the owner through various means. I am usually very intuned with harmful energy and can feel it as soon as I enter a home or meet someone. This person must not be inherently bad, but simply a drainer of success and financial well being. I allowed myself to be too distracted and I did not listen to my new home as I should have.

As soon as I got off the phone an order came in for my business and the house began speaking to me in small ways to say I am on the right track. I am going to order the housewarming candle and perform the rituals I should have performed to begin with properly. My inner being is just dancing with excitement.

I will let you know how things progress.

Namaste,

Donna

The new collection of money candles from Ann George Studios.

The new collection of money candles was poured on August 23, 2007 during the second quarter of the waxing Moon in Capricorn. If you read this blog frequently, you will be familiar with the advantages of pouring ritual candles to help attract qualities of personality, healing, wealth or material success into your mindstream. If these ideas are new to you, please visit articles about Moonwork and Ritual.

Given the advantages of pouring during the waxing moon in general, the sign of Capricorn is a cardinal Earth sign. Cardinal signs are the powerful initiating signs that mark the movement of the Earth through her seasons. To pour for Money in a cardinal Earth signs helps bring the push of wealth building Capricorn energy to your meditations.

As the alchemy of my ritual candles is based in part on the energetic assumption that everything vibrates... I will now mention the advantages of Sun Virgo for money candle success. Virgo is a mutable earth sign. Mutable signs are flexible, versatile and adaptable. The energy of these wonderful qualities helps modulate the push of Capricorn to ensure that we not only attract wealth, but use the analytical nature of Virgo to be mindful about how we generate and how we manage the wealth we attract.

Wealth is not only determined by how much one has, but how one manages what one has. It is not difficult to attract and spend, but it takes a wise and careful mind to attract wealth and use the tool of money to create more money.

Candles are now ready to ship and may be purchased at the Mystic Store by clicking the title of this post.

When is it best to burn moonpoured candles?

I am happy to reply to this excellent question for the benefit of all shoppers at the Moon poured Candle Store.
Here we go:

Greetings Ann,

I recently received two of your candles as a gift from a wonderful new friend. The Reiki Healing Candle and the Success Candle. Is there a sequence that I should follow with these candles (e.g., Reiki first and Success second or visa versa? )
I am anxious to start using them and I want to make sure that I do it correctly for the best results.

When I hand pour the candles, I try to create beautiful tools to serve as "complete little units of intention". What I mean by that is that each candle in and of itself is poured to make the best use of color, fragrance, intent, moon phases and sun times so that you may burn your candle at anytime. The idea is to instill in the molten wax, all the best possible ingredients to heal the body, mind and spirit so that you may manifest the healing, success, wealth or love that you want in your life.

If you prefer to work with the affirmation included in the Reiki Candle first, focusing exclusively on that before you move on to use the Success Candle, this is fine. If you prefer to manifest Success in the morning, then have a peaceful healing candle meditation that evening, also fine. I don't think burning both at once would be very helpful, as the meditation/affirmation part of the right use of candles in ritual matters. In fact, it is your intent, your prayers, your own personal inner voice that makes candle ritual effective. Thus, your inner voice is the best guide to follow when choosing when or how to use of the candles. The labile, instructions and affirmation are for your benefit, and serve to help you choose the candle that is the right one for you.

You may also benefit from visiting this article on the Ritual and Intent. That article explores the issue of intent in greater detail.

I am trust you will enjoy your candles! and feel welcome to write again should you have any further questions.

With all best wishes, Ann George

FAQ & the use of Ritual Candles

This post is in reply to some excellent questions I just received. While the link referenced in the title does provide a general introduction to candle burning ritual, these questions were specific and you may find the answers to be helpful in your own meditation & ritual work. This is the list of questions I received:

We would like to have more information on the use of the candles we purchased from you. All the questions you can answer would be a great help.

1) When is best time to light it ( the candle) ?
It is best to light the candle when you have plenty of time to focus your attention on the ritual process. It doesn't really matter whether you choose morning, mid day or evening. What matters most is that you can sit and repeat the affirmation included with each candle at least 10 times. The candles are all moon poured, so the energy of the best time to light it is really already included in the candle. For more information on using moon phases for candle ritual, please visit my article on moon phases.

2) How long do i keep it lit at a time?
It is best to sit in meditation with the candle, repeating the affirmation for at least 10 to 15 minutes every day until the candle has been burned up. It is not necessary to leave the candle burning when you are away from it. The candle is a focusing tool to help you do the greatest magic of all, that of transforming your internal dialogue.

3) Do I leave it in the same place or more it around the house?
It is best to do ritual and meditation work in the same place, preferably some place in the home that feels good to you. A place that is "just yours", one that may have a small personal alter or shrine. Many people find it helpful to place their shrine or alter so that they face east when praying.

4) As we both have sons we are trying to help, can we even help our sons with us using the candles?
Yes! This is a great question. Our prayers can be dedicated to the benefit of anyone. When we do candle ritual to pray for healing, wealth, love, success or any other blessing... we can pray that our loved ones receive equal or greater blessing that those we are asking for ourselves.

I hope have answered these questions completely. If not, please feel welome to post additonal questions at your convenience.
With all best wishes,

Ann George
