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.
