Dear Jacqueline,
I wonder if you might also do an article on how you use Monopoly and play money for spells,how you can use them to bring in and attract money,how it works, your own tales of using it,etc. This again is another topic that I have never found any article on even though I have read a few times about it and am wondering more the tricks of the trade

Thanks Jacqueline! Your Free Candle Blog is the best..and you won’t find another one like it..

Thanks! Lisa

Funny that you sent this as I am putting the finishing touches on a weeks worth of Prosperity and Money Drawing Candle Spells and ideas to ponder. Using money, whether real or play money, has been a great visual for people to use when decorating their money altar or just to scatter around the green money drawing candle they have lit to give it ‘ambiance’.

For my personal money altar, I have a Lennox crystal clam shell dish with Money Drawing Salt in it that is covering a petition paper that is being weighted down by coins from all over the world (I collect foriegn money) I then have a large Lodestone on top of that with Magnetic Sand and lotto tickets and some real greenbacks poking out and around the bowl.  I have a green dollars designed fabric scarf, a Money Oil Lamp, A Green Candle plus my cash box from my various other endeavors and the bank zippered deposit envelope that is supporting the gold sprayed plastic piggy bank from the bank. I also have a framed photo of the New York Stock Exchange top twenty and a few other personal money drawing items.

You would be surprised to know how much ‘funny’ money is used – and real money as well!

So, placing a layer of Monopoly money or play money with Money Drawing Sigils drawn in red ink in the corners and anointed with Money Drawing Condition Oil would be a grat way to layer under a piece of glass as a base for focusing your money drawing work.

Good Question! Thanks for asking!

Now onto the Money Tree idea….

We had a lovely time today at the Saint Joseph’s Day Altar 2009 with visitors, readings and a very generous donation for our efforts to continue to feed those less fortunate. Also, a special thanks to the “Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookie Fairy” You know who you are!

Creating beautiful and spiritual altars in which you can burn your candles at is easier to create than you can imagine. This blog entry gives you various ideas on how to create that special sacred place in which you can burn all your candles for magical work for love, money, revenge, reversing and success.  Here is an example of a simple St. Joseph Feast Day altar I set up. I had an antique cabinet that i painted a french vanilla creme and placed a gold lame’ cloth over it with a piece of glass to keep everything easy to clean.

I then placed my statue of St. Joseph on a pedestal and flanked him with two antique Catholic brass candlestick holders that I put cream colored pillar candles in. The left and right back areas I placed two potted Easter lilies The two large white plates held petition candles labeled with clients petitions and names, each with their own St. Joseph card in front of the candle. There is a large plate of dried fava beans, a symbol of Good Luck for this day, that were distributed to clients. My home was open to visitors during the day and many came to get a reading from me and to collect their three Good Luck Mojo Beans (fava beans) so that they could carry them with their three wishes to the river to toss them in.

Here is my All Saints Altar where 90 percent of my candles are burned for bringing in good things such as love, money, prosperity and success for my clients and myself. From left to right I have an antique photo of St.Anne, two St. Expedite with two different poses (you never know which one is correct!), St. Therese “Little Flower”, Infant of Prague, Our Lady of Grace, St. Martin de Porres, St. Joseph, Caridad de Cobre, Archangel Uriel, Marie Laveau and the Our Lady of Fatima. The offering is clear, cool water, tobacco, a sweet pastry and a white candle. The top of this cabinet holds a long piece of beveled glass from a tabletop and has a cream brocade runner with tassels on each end. But wait… it gets better…

This cabinet was a antique store find! I think it must have been a 1960′s pseudo bar type thing. I sanded it down, painted it a merlot color, andded these nifty Mexican tin images of Sacrd Hearts and lo and behold, it became a place to store all my hoodoo herbs and roots!

I hope this helps you become inspired to go out antique hunting and begin to tap into your creative side to paint and decorate an altar for your special requests for blessings from the Universe.
