What to Say While the Candle Burns
Burning a candle for good luck isn’t enough. Once you’ve chosen the appropriate candle color, anointed it with oil, and notched or inscribed it with the symbol that represents the type of luck you hope to receive, do one of the following:
Say, “This candle represents the good luck coming my way” (before you light it), then, “I can see good luck surrounding me” (right after you’ve lit the candle). As you watch the candle burn, imagine what it will be like when the good luck you desire appears in your life. If you’re burning the whole candle, say, “I will have good luck” for every one-third of the candle that melts away. When it’s time to blow out the candle, imagine the bad luck in your life being extinguished.
Light a candle in the color of your choice and say, “This candle represents me.” Light a black candle and say, “I have had bad luck in the past but it’s time for it to stop. This candle represents my bad luck.” Light a gray one and say, “My life is balanced at this point. Bad luck is no more.” Light an orange candle and say, “Things will change now. Good luck is coming.” Let the candles burn all the way down as you visualize the good luck you will have from this day forward.
With this spell, you don’t have to say anything out loud at all (though you can certainly verbalize your wishes if you’d like). Light a green candle and picture a small balloon that represents your goal and your good luck for achieving that goal. As the candle burns, imagine the balloon getting larger and larger until it begins to float. Finally, the balloon is soaring. You watch the goal and luck in your mind grow slowly and finally soar because your success won’t be instantaneous and burn out quickly, like a balloon that’s filled with too much air, too quickly. Instead, the good luck will come to you and you’ll achieve gradual and long-lasting success in your goal.
Burn a candle in your color of choice and say, “Bring to me my heart’s desire, the luck I need, the dream I dream. Keep from me the harm you see, so I remain safe with the good fortune I seek.”
