Charging Candles
Charging
your candle is like programming your desire or intent into a candle. To charge a
candle, rub scented oil on it. Hold the candle in your power hand (your
dominant hand) and visualize what you want it to do. If you wish, you can
carve your desire, such as a name or an object or a dollar sign, into the
candle. Speak an affirmation (if oil is used to anoint candle speak affirmation
3 times - if NO oil is used speak affirmation 21 times) and your candle is
charged.
