Color of the day: Ivory Incense of the day: Neroli Take six bills - $1, $5, 10$, 20$, 50$, 100$ - and a picture of your home, car, and any other property you want to preserve. Fasten them together with a safety pin. Put them into a clear jar with a tight lid. Put a green candle on top of the lid, and let it burn, allowing the wax to melt down over the jar. If possible, place the jar with the lit candle in a window where the light of the Full Moon will fall on it. I also suggest placing the jar in a shallow bowl of water just for safety sake. Spread a circle of salt around the jar/bowl and say the following: "I work hard for my money, I save and I plan. I stretch my dollars as far as I can. But this world is changing, and things that I thought were safe and secure have been proven to naught. I need to know more as financial plans crash, so help to keep what is left of my cash!" Now, picture what you need to preserve, and start learning the ways this can be done. Use the Internet, books, local seminars provided by various organizations and companies. Promise yourself that you will first protect your assets, and NEVER gamble on investments with money you can't afford to lose. Keep your jar in your bedroom so that you see it every day when you get up or go to bed. Someday, when you feel financially secure, you will open the jar and treat yourself to something you've been denying yourself. However, if you can, leave it right where it is, and pass the jar, along with the spell working along to your descendants as a way of teaching them a lesson you learned the hard way. Life has a way of throwing you curves, but you can adjust if you focus on your goals. |
