Candle/Time

Tonight I did some prep work for the upcoming ritual. As I’m always wishing I could “liberate myself from the awful ticking of the clock” I’ve decided to cover up all the clocks this evening in the house, and instead mark time with a candle.

For my disclosure on this or any of my post or pages… please visit my Disclosure page.

Ikea, oddly enough, actually sells some really great plain white candles that burn cleanly and evenly for about eight hours straight (yeah, I timed it one day and ticked off the hours as it went).

So, since the ritual will take place on Saturday, I decorated one of these candles measured out by the progression of hours starting with Mercury which is the hour we’ve planned to start. With any luck, if I light it just a little bit before sunset, it’ll burn through the night and track the planetary hours in (generally) correct time.

Magickal Planetary Hours Candle

That’s the theory anyway.

I’ve also begun to prep the jars I plan for us to use to hold water we will energetically charge as a group. Each jar will host a different type of energy (Health, Peace, Joy, Strength, and Wealth) and so I’ve used an etching cream to inscribe these words into the glass, along with the corresponding planetary symbol to that energy.

I also inscribed a sixth jar, just for myself… but I think I’ll be keeping the details of that one a secret.
