I NEED TO MASTER THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

Question: "I have been applying the laws of attraction with candle magick in attempt to bring specific, positive things into my life. Today I found $60 on the sidewalk, as if God and my guardian angels are helping me just a little bit. One thing I want, and have been visualizing and praying for, is to be reunited with a school teacher I had last year. We had an electric connection. will my path again intersect with my school teacher, and will we become emotionally and romantically intertwined?"

Psychic Advice:
Lighting candles connects us to the eternal flame of Divine Light. A candle lighting ceremony ritual has been used since the dawn of time in spiritual and religious practices around the globe to honor the fact that light gives life. Many spiritual and religious practices use candle lighting as a form of prayer and intention, and many individuals use the flame of a candle as a focal point for meditation.

The effects of the law of attraction are amplified with intention - the more energy and attention you give to something, the more strongly you attract it. Candle lighting can be used as a tool to master the law of attraction, because when you light a candle with intention, that intention becomes a prayer and the light becomes a focal point for that prayer that continues to shine into the Universe, attracting energy and attention.

It is important to remember that intention is a very powerful thing, and that power must not be misused. Setting an intention and lighting a candle for wealth, prosperity, abundance and good fortune is a prayer to connect with the infinite source of divine abundance. Finding and receiving the $60 as a gift from the Universe is the beginning of allowing yourself to manifest your desire and intention to receive all good things. In fact, finding $60 on the sidewalk is not such a small thing, when most people only tend to find spare change.

You can set similar intentions for attracting love into your life, but you must be careful about setting intentions or using any type of magic to attract a particular person, because this can be a form of manipulation and a misuse of power. In order to master the law of attraction, you must understand the difference between intention and manipulation. When you use candles or any other form of magic to manipulate the free will of others to benefit your own ends, you risk getting burned. We must always honor and respect another person's free will - this is the prime directive of this Universe, and it is one of the keys to the Laws of Attraction.

The Law of Free Will is an important component of the Law of Attraction, because it allows you to use your free will to attract what you desire. But the Law of Free Will also supercedes the Law of Attraction when it comes to other people. We cannot do anything to interfere with the free will of another person - to do so is to break universal laws, for which there are severe repercussions.

It is always best to set the intention of what you desire to experience, and then allow the Universe to deliver that to you, or to deliver something even better than you could imagine. For instance, you did not ask for a specific person to drop a specific amount of money on the sidewalk so you could benefit from their loss - you simply allowed the Universe to give to you without expectation or control. When it comes to attracting love, you must also release and relinquish control and expectation.

Develop a Law of Attraction Love List: ask the Universe for the type of love and relationship that you desire to have, listing the qualities that you would like to have in a partner, and in the relationship itself without limiting it to one person. If you are fixated on one particular person, then ask for someone who has qualities like that person has, and who makes you feel like that person makes you feel. Remember that the Universe takes everything literally, and does not compute negatives, so find a positive way to ask for what you do want instead of focusing attention on what you don't want: don't say "I don't want someone who is married", instead say that "I want someone who is completely and totally available to me in all ways and on all levels".

It is not wise to ask only for one particular person (even if you are in love or infatuated with that person), because this limits what you are willing to attract and receive from the Universe, and does not allow the Universe to bring you someone who is even better for you. Focusing your intention on a particular person also uses the power of divine intention to try to control and manipulate another person to give you the outcome that you believe you desire. Instead, focus on the feelings that you want to share in your ideal relationship, focus on the joy it will give you to be in that ideal relationship, and let that joy attract the love you desire to you.

When it comes to using candles for candle lighting ceremony ritual and candle magick, it is important to remember that the color of the candles can have a strong effect on the energy that you are putting out into the Universe. Every color has its own unique vibration and frequency in the spectrum of light. The effects of law of attraction are created because like energy is attracted to like energy, so you want to light candles that hold the frequency of what you desire to attract.

White candles hold the universal energy of peace; they represent purity and purification. White candles are really the best for working with prayers and intentions generally, and for connecting with the divine. If you want to work with different colors and their different frequencies, pink is for love, but it is for an innocent and pure love. Green is for healing, and for prosperity. Blue is for truth, honesty, loyalty, devotion, sincerity and expression. Purple is for connecting with intuition, guidance, and the violet flame. Red is for passion, but passion can have a dark side that is aggressive. Orange is for creativity, and yellow is for power, confidence and joy.

Gold and silver connect with the frequencies of wealth and abundance, as well as with the divine masculine and the divine feminine respectively - gold and silver also hold the energies of celebration, and nobility. Dark candles, especially black candles, are used in black magic and represent the light of darkness - these are not recommended for obvious reasons. When working with candle lighting, it is important to remember that you are working with Light, so keep it light and positive.

The effects of the law of attraction are very powerful, but you must keep your intentions pure. Using a candle lighting ceremony ritual to attract a specific person is a misuse of this power, however, you can use the power of intention to pray for them instead of asking for what you want. For instance, you could light a candle with the prayer and intention that your former teacher find love and happiness for herself; you could ask that her life be blessed with peace, and that she always holds you in her heart and in her mind in a positive way. Other than that, you must release her and let her go - this is an essential part of working with the law of attraction: you must be willing to let it go, trusting that what is true for you will come to you and flow to you easily (as with the $60 you found).

You can use candles, especially white candles, to pray for the greater good. You can light a candle with the prayer and intention for our governments and for our leaders to be divinely guided by the Light to do all that is good for the highest and best good of all, and that they be divinely protected. You can light a candle for your loved ones, for those in body and beyond, and set the intention for them to have peace and protection, joy and prosperity, health and wellbeing, always and in all ways.

Creating a candle lighting ceremony ritual can hold your intention in the light of love, and let your prayers and affirmations be held in the divine light of the eternal flame. Lighting candles, particularly white candles (or pure beeswax are even better), can be excellent tools to amplify your intentions as they connect you with the divine light of the Universe so you can master the Law of Attraction.
