This post is about an e-mail I received two days ago from a young lady who wanted to inquire of my services. Her letter reads (identity not revealed to protect the e-mail author):

No name or any identifying clues if this person is male or female. So my answer was:

Hi there,

I would like to know the following information:

Your name, would be nice

Why did you wait 9 months before considering a reconciliation spell?

What was the reason you broke up?

Do you think that the mindset and situation has changed so that there will be no repeats?

Jacqueline

Shortly thereafter I receive this e-mail:

(identity protected)

So, I then sent this person this e-mail:

(identity protected)

I really think that your emotions have been played with and that you have given him way too much time (9 months). I am not sure if you have worked with any other spiritual worker, but I do not think anything will work now since so much time has passed.

Have you had the folks at (referral company) burn candles for you? That could be a start, but the feeling in my heart it is no success.

Better to work on bringing into your life someone who is available and willing to commit (since this man cannot commit to his marriage or to leave it as well).

Let me know when you are ready to do so.

Jacqueline

So, later in the day, I receive this e-mail:

(identity protected)

So I answered her with this:

(identity protected),

The comment “Either one of the options are ok with me” tells me that you need to be the one who decides and not give your decision power to someone else so that if you do not get the results you finally decide to have, you can be blameless in the decision.

I think that you should sit and decide if you are ready to let someone else in your life and put this man behind you and be strong enough that if you were to see him in the grocery store, you can walk on by without breaking down.

Once you are THAT strong, let me know.

Jacqueline

The reason I share this with you is that you must have a clear and precise idea of what outcome you want when beginning any spiritual work. If, like this person, you have a flippant or devil-may-care manner and cannot commit to either one side or the other, then it is not time to begin any spiritual work. I am glad she came to me, instead of possibly encountering another person out there who may not have been as ethical and would had fed her a line and sinker to get money out of this client.

If you are considering doing some candle work for your self or someone else, make sure that you (or the person) is clear of what they want or else it will negate the purpose of the candle burning, reflecting on hard feelings not only to spirit but also to the one who is doing the candle work for you.

Last week, I had a third call in as many weeks from a person who was having problems with her surrounding neighbors. It was regarding her 10 acres and the keeping of 19 dogs on the property. She told me that at one time when the property was available for purchase, her neighbors were outbid by this persons’ parents. She indicated that she felt that the frequent referrals to the animal control services were in retaliation of the deceased parents ability to possess the property than them.

Once I had invested another 30 minutes in giving her ethical spiritual counseling with tips and techniques with success with a black candle burn for her neighbors, this person tells me that she does not have a functional toilet in which to dispose of the black candle. She tells me that when she needs to use the toilet, she goes to he local gas station.

Whaaaattttt?

Right there, that tells me that this person does not have their priorities in check. Having 19 dogs, well I can justify that she does own 10 acres and that would seem big enough for them to roam, despite the amount that she puts out every month for care and food for the animals. To not have a functioning bathroom in which you can eliminate waste gives me the impression that her life is “going to the dogs”. I asked her why would she spend money to call me to ask for candle work and supplies when she should be taking care of her home. She responded that she “knows but she has to get the four dilapidated vehicles off her property before the end of the month.” Even more evidence of not only a negative magnet for more problems and her money is going down. If you are even a dabbler in Feng Shui, you know that clutter and broken things like appliances and old clothing, boxes and such give energy to negativity and thus needs to be removed either by donating the items that can be repaired to a charity, having things taken to the dump, and a big recycling effort to get rid of any old newspapers, boxes and stuff that sits and collects dust.

I told her that once she has done that, give the whole house a good cleaning and the void produced by getting rid of old things, along with a good housecleaning, should give her a brighter outlook on life, get her priorities in line and maybe get the neighbors off her back.

I told her then and only then would I consider doing candle work for her. Why burn candles for prosperity if you can’t take care of yourself? You are asking the Universe to give you money so that you could quite possibility “throw it to the dogs” some more. Basic human living conditions are far more important in my world than pets, regardless of the loving devotion they give you. It is unfortunate that in this same week, we have a story in our area about someone who had a house overran with cats. I am a cat person myself, but with my busy schedule and traveling, I couldn’t give enough time to my pet to make his life a quality one with my schedule. This is why I choose with consciousness, not to own a pet.

Now, a shameless promotion of something near and dear to me!
