Thursday 17 October 2013 Which Magic Rituals Should You Do Now

By Alan Joel It's amazing how, during this economic downturn,people are suddenly confused about what kind of magic spells andrituals they should do now. Sure, more people are unemployed, theeconomy is pretty rocky, and times seem uncertain, but in actualitynothing has changed. Here's the deal: we are all students in theEarth school and there are a limited number of problems we need tolearn to solve while we're in school. The basic lessons are health;wealth and career; and relationships and sex. Sound familiar? Justabout everything else can be put under these basic categories. And,here's the real kicker: we get happy and graduate when we solve theseproblems. YOUR BIG LIFE LESSONEach person usually has one main lesson to learn in Earth school.If you look back on your life, you can probably easily figure out whichlesson you signed up for. You can look at your friends, and do thesame. For instance, you probably have one friend who has never hadrelationship issues but can't seem to get healthy. Then there is yourfriend who has money problems like crazy, but is as healthy as a horse,which is good because he can't afford to go to the doctor. Nomatter which life lesson you have, chances are that the world economicsituation hasn't really changed it, right? Maybe the lesson or"problem" has intensified, but it's still the same old problem. In theworst-case scenario, you might still have your major life lesson, butnow you have a minor in some other life lesson, too. If health has beenyour main lesson, maybe the economic crunch has now made it moredifficult for you to get the healing you need. But the bottom line isthat health is still the main issue. In short, nothing has really changed. MAGIC AND YOUR BIG LIFE LESSONSo what kind of magic rituals or spells should you do now to helpyou learn about your life lesson? Your first magical act should be tomeditate on the fact that, magically, size doesn't really matter whenit comes to problems, or their solutions. As our teacher Abraham-Hicksis fond of saying, "It's just as easy to manifest a button as acastle." By the token, it is just as easy (or difficult) to magicallysolve the problem of unemployment today as it was when the economy wasgoing strong. Your big life lesson is the same as it always has been.So, if you are feeling depressed, fearful, or pitiful, stop it. Get offthe pity pot. Nothing, regardless of the gloom-and-doom of predictionsof economists, is any worse than before. THE SUN CANDLE: A MAGIC RITUAL FOR TODAYNow that you've discovered that you are no worse than before, it'stime to start using a magic ritual that will help you stay positive,and make forward progress toward learning your big life lesson. Oneof the simplest magic rituals you can do to help you stay positive isto use the Sun Candle. Burning the Sun Candle with the appropriatelitany on a daily basis will not only nourish your spirit, but give youtangible magical act to do, so you feel like you "doing something"about your situation. Here's how you use the Sun Candle. Youwill need a pure yellow candle (a bright yellow that is not too orange)and wooden or paper matches. You can find pure yellow candles at mostgrocery stores in the section with the religious candles (in glasscontainers). You will also need to know which direction is South.To create sacred space with the Sun Candle, you will need to "charge"it, or program it to do so. Here's how: * Stand or sit in the South facing North with the Sun Candle in front of you* Light the candle using wooden or paper matches (do NOT use a lighter)* Wait until the candle flame is steady and tall* Hold your hands up to and around the flame, focusing your attention on the candle and flame.* Say the charge verse below in a voice of command (a strong, powerful voice) Child of Wonder,Child of Flame,Nourish My Spirit,And Protect My Aim! If there are other people in theroom with you, you can change the "My" to "Our" and the word "Spirit"to "Spirits." Leave the candle burning in the room for at least 30minutes (be sure the candle is on a protected surface such as a plateand is not a fire hazard). At the end of 30 minutes or when youfeel ready, blow out the flame (don't snuff it). Spend a moment or twoin the area to see if you can detect a difference in the level andquality of energy. The area should feel lighter, more harmonious and/ormore peaceful to you. "HAVE FUN USING THIS DAILY MAGIC RITUAL TO REGAIN BALANCE!"
