Spelling for Peace

So, I told you that there has been poltergeist activity around our house. This Wednesday, we are going to the cemetery where my mom is buried to try and calm her down. This weekend, I took the first step toward helping her find peace. First, I set up a collection of things on the cedar chest that she left me.

Then, I got out the candles that I bought in New Orleans, plus a few other supplies that were on hand.

The black candle is for protection and the white one is for purification.  I anointed them with Sweet Dreams oil. I rubbed them from top to bottom, because I want to draw the purity and protection in towards me. If you want to repel something, you anoint them from the bottom outward.

Then I put them in holders to burn. They both lit up right away. If you have trouble lighting them, that may mean that your intentions need to be examined more closely.

I put the lighted candles on my mom's antique sewing machine.

I also had two sticks of white sage. I put them in vases that were empty and then put the vases on furniture that was my mom's.

There was a bag of sage crumbles. I anointed that with Sweet Dreams also.

Then I put it into a mesh bag and put that in the box where I keep my mom's jewelry.

The candles took about 8 hours to burn. They burned completely -  not a speck was left, which is a good sign that your intentions have been accepted.

So, onto what I am wearing today. This silky skirt is from Liz Claiborne. The tank top is reversible, but has no label, so I don't know who makes it.

And on top, my black sating swing jacket.

I got this costume necklace at Stein Mart.

On my right arm, a sapphire/diamond ring and tennis bracelet, and a silver bracelet.

On my right arm, the two bracelets that match the necklace, a sapphire band, and my mom's diamond.

Here's a better look. It's about one carat.

So that's it for today, except for some links.
