I'm so frustrated, guys. I was so excited when I found these candles last year, but put a lot of thought and research into it before purchasing. In the first six months of this year, I spent over $1000 on candles and Eriss. I've done everything right. With plenty of time in between, I did Un-Hex, Halo, Mars, Healing, Crossroads...I've burned Ahari, Sire/Ahari, GF (alone and with Ahari), even conjured with layered 4th Jupiter/Sire. I've put GF oil on my feet. I've worn GF/Crossroads/Ahari Eriss. I've chanted, I've incanted, I've petitioned, I've offered, I've thanked, I've prayed, I've believed, I've let go.
I've seen NO movement whatsoever. On the contrary, everything is going wrong. First, my beautiful, beloved dog died. There was nothing wrong with him (that we knew), he was happy, healthy and energetic. Then one night, he just fell over and died. He was my heart and the only constant in my life, the only thing getting me through the pain I've been going through. My car keeps breaking down (missed work the last time and got in trouble), so I'm wracking up credit card debt that I can't keep up with fixing it because I can't swing a downpayment and car payment right now. I'm not getting the hours at work that I need, so that means less money. I'd totally work another job on the side, but I'm afraid with the unreliability of my car. Now I have a large monthly bill to pay for the next four months. I'm owed 9 weeks of unemployment from last year and 4 weeks for this year - but my file won't update and I can't get through to anyone. My ex owed a lot in back child support but the court only ruled for a tiny fraction of it (burned Court for that and it didn't work). My "husband"- I use that term loosely - was supposed to give me part of the tax refund, but ended up taking the whole thing to pay down his credit cards. Not sure when I'm going to see that money as he spends every penny (we have separate accounts). Our marriage is in shambles btw, which I don't even care about - I just want to get out and create a new, better life for myself and my young adult child. It's all on me as I don't have much family left and none near me. I'm not new to spirituality. Before any work I do, I'm sure to cleanse, ground, shield and protect. I just don't know where to go from here. I used to be a master at manifesting but now I can't do shit. I used to regularly win $20-$60 off of just ONE two-dollar lottery scratch card; I've only won $4 in all these months! Out of all the candles I've burned, the only one that worked was Sweetening. My husband had come home one day being his usual dick self, yelling at me, so I ran in the other room and lit it. Within 30 minutes he did a 180. I just don't understand why the others aren't showing any movement at all. For reference, the last one I burned was 4th Jupiter/Sire, six weeks ago, and I did it on both the day and hour of Jupiter. Thanks for reading my long-ass post. I'm just feeling defeated.
When I saw this post, something told me to read to see if there was anything that I could suggest or to possibly offer to help. What I've realized on this journey is that everything is connected, in some way, shape or form. When positive things happen, negative things are just waiting to arrive. The quote "as above, so below, as within, so without," represents that. Simply put, the condition your spirit is in, reflects your actions. What I realized I needed to do to better connect and manifest my greatest desires with my higher self, was that I needed to connect to my lower-self and do some shadow work. "Cleaning house" so to speak. Sometimes you have to sit down and cry then ask yourself, "what is it that I truly want spiritually and physically?" "What does true happiness look like to me?" I had to learn to balance my lower self with my higher self and had to learn to balance my physical needs with my spiritual needs. Have you thought about what you need spiritually and how it can connect with what you need physically? What I also noticed was that sometimes I may need way more than just a cleansing or two. It might take 6-8 months just for me to clear my blockages, whether physical or spiritual. I also learned that the very people who we believe are for us, could be the very thing that is against us and that hinders us, our possibilities and our growth. Maybe your marriage could potentially be a blockage. We tend to want things to happen quickly and when we need it done, but Spirit works on Spirit's time. I know how it can be very frustrating because we all want what we desire and sometimes having to wait because we often find ourselves waiting for a long period of time can discourage us. I created a burn schedule where I rotate and burn my candles (both spelled and conjure) on a monthly basis which has been very successful for my family and I. Have you tried creating a schedule of where you burn particular candles pertaining to your situation, like a routine schedule? I also participate in Lala's rites as well as Chaela Bre's cleansing ceremonies. My suggestion would be to take a step back and really analyze your situation and try to figure out a strategic burning routine. Also try participating in the Lwa rites that Lala offers.
@LeoRising22 Maybe Papa Legba and/or Eleggua can help. I was told he is the physical manifestation of planet Mercury as well as Hecate and can unblock. I gave an offering to Eleggua very recently and I have seen some small movement and I feel more calm.
Got!!
I am in the same ship with you nothing going right??? But we all hot this it will happen for each of us!!
You are not doing anything wrong I spent a lot more and movement was twice and than it went on reverse. I am now burning all my candles because they smell nice. focus on yourself and let life take its course best we can do
I'm normally not one to comment but this post randomly caught my attention and was curious if anything has changed for you. Also wondering if all the work you've tried has been for yourself besides the sweetening you mentioned? Reason I ask is because you mentioned your hubby. It's possible something negative could be tied to him and causing you all of those issues. Or if I understood you correctly could also be negative ties from your ex (not your hubby). I've known that to happen to people sometimes. They think they are going crazy putting in work and wondering why things still go wrong and they aren't even the issue. It ends up being issues spilling over from their partners spiritual blocks/ties that need to be removed. Was just a thought. I really hope things improve for you.
Don’t give up. Start over, find a focus and believe in yourself
@LeoRising22 I guess we’re just gonna wait it out. But for you it’s been a whole year. What’s the best result you’ve ever gotten?
@Mahogany Pinx hopefully our petitions are heard and our desires are made manifest 🥂
I can honestly say I understand how you feel. And it hurts even more when people give their testimony and I’m like what about me? I sometimes feel like I’m beyond help even for the spirits. But I chose to have faith and remain positive.
You're a perfect candidate for a reading. Def get one!
Get a Reading, a spiritual bath and start meditating, let go of the resistance take a break from the candles.
Everything has to fall in order for spirit to fix it that's the point of all of this break down what we thought or think we wanted or needed and let them replace all of it!! Nothing is happen to you it's happening for you always remember that!!
@LeoRising22 burn your UNHEX, HEALING, HALO, and Crossroads all the way. This is what I had to do. For some of us, it takes longer. And as others here have said, focus as best as you can, sweetheart! I have a random running mind, I barely sleep at night, so MEDITATE for focus. Think about and SPEAK about the positive. Hubbii trippin?? Sweeten him, think about the good with him. Speak what you want from all of this? Happiness? Money? You need individual focus on each of these. For us, ONE SITUATION/CANDLE AT A TIME! Trust this! GF, burn onlii that candle until you get the movement. Sweetening, onlii burn that until you get movement, etc. I've had to focus on one thing, burning one candle for that one thing. Stick up on AHARI candles and souffles, but BE CAREFUL with it! It amplifies your thoughts/ intentions, So positive thinking onlii. It is ok, sweetpea. Things will work out! May You Manifest All That you Desire! 💙
@LeoRising22, girrrl, you just typed everything I’ve been wanting to say. However, I am keeping the faith and trying very hard not to allow negativity of my thoughts creep in. Continue to do everything you’ve been doing. Cry out loud to your ancestors. Use the “Rose of Jericho” help believing, keep pushing and rebuke the negative thoughts💭 • I’m really talking to myself in the mirror 🪞 • we got this 0kay~🤎
You mentioned that your marriage is in shambles and you want to create a better life for yourself. Perhaps you’ve seen no movement because you are focusing on the wrong area of your life. Sometimes no movement is basically Spirit saying “stop baby girl, you’re focusing on the windows where the roof is collapsing.”
