Be careful what you wish for....

We are in need of money. (What else is new? :D) So I thought I would do a quick money drawing candle spell. I had my candle all dressed, incence burning and asked my Blessed Mother to bring Her abundance to me. I asked that we have the money we needed and for a sign that all things work work out for us. Not 15 minutes later my hubby calls. He askes if we need any more candy. Since he knows we have three huge bags if Trick or treat candy, we don't need any at all. He just came from a job and as a thank you, they gave him two boxes of chocolate gold coins! So there is the money I asked for!!

:T

Now if I could just use the coins to pay some bills!

DOH...

:T Thanks for sharing that, but you really do have a point. We need to be very specific in what we ask. We can ask for $10,000 and get a hundred credit card offers in the mail.......so, for instance, you'd need to ask for $10,000 that you don't have to pay back.

Glad to see you smiling :)

My very first spell was a money spell, I dressed a green candle, charged it and I said, Money money come to me by way of a job for all to see, I was quite desperate.

My trailer got shot the next day, busted my hot water heater. Insurance bought me a new one and we made about $500 profit because we did the work ourselves, but 1 inch to the right or the left and my daughter or myself might not be alive today. I now cast spells in a protected circle to keep anything from being released until I am ready, and I am very specific.

Chocolate coins? Whee! That's pretty funny! Made me laugh today and I need it.... last week of work left and I work an hour less per day. *sigh*

[Demeter]

It always pays to be specific. I was reading in the Farrar's book on spells about a couple of instances similar ... one where they asked for a few hundred, and got it ... in lire, which came to a couple of pounds. Another time Alex Sanders did a spell asking for gold, and the next day somebody gave him a bowl of goldfish!

Oh! I have a very similar story. I did the same thing and three days later a girl backed in to my almost brand new car (I bought a new car and immediately lost my job :rolleyes: ) so I was given a checkfor just over 500 dollars which was exactly how much I needed to pay a certain bill. Now the dilemma . . . fix the car or pay the bill? As it turned out, my loan from the credit union required me to fix the car so I *did* get the money, I just had no control over what to use it for. *sigh*

Well, I did a spell once and had a very embarrassing result. I casted a spell so that I would attract the opposite sex. At work customers seemed to be flirting with me and so I got kind of flirty and smiley. Well, there was this coworker I had a crush on, and I directed the spell more toward him. He came up to me and seemed to be flirting with me. I smiled playfully and was really friendly. I thought to myself "YES!!! It worked!!!" Well later on that day he walked past my area again and I looked at him. He smiled at me and I smiled playfully at him. Later on, he asked me who my new female coworker was. He was smiling at her, not me!!! Talk about embarrassing. Oh well, you live and learn, right?

Very good points here ya'll.

The first spell I did was a job spell. I was very careful and asked the Goddess for a job in a specific school, which seemed a very good place. I visualized it in details, trying to take everything into consideration. But later I added that if this job wasn't appropriate for me, let me not get it. Pretty odd, isn't it?;)

Well, I didn't get the job, I got a job at another school instead. Only recently I found out that one of my friends got the job I wanted. It turned out that she has to work with students who are very problematic, most of whom have a criminal record:eek: .

The Goddess has saved me from what I wished for and I'm extremely thankful for that.

Blessed Be

Heh! That was a good giggle!

You can also look at this as the sign you're asking for. Sort of in expectation of what's to come. :p

Some of you know that there is a problem at my school with belligerent students. Well, now I have a story about it that fits with this thread. I worked really hard on a sort of glamour over the summer to deflect negativity and turn it back on the sender, mostly to protect me.. I've worked on it hard and I really feel like it has become a part of me know and I can "turn it up" when I need it more or "turn it off" if I want to let someone in. It's all mental, I know. Anyway, what I hadn't realized was that I must have it turned on max lately because I've been in fear of all of the things that have happened at school.

In the past week, I've had four confrontations with students. Each time, the student did something extremely rude, and each time, no matter how polite I was, the student responded not with anger at my discipline but feeling defensive because they felt like I had been rude to them. They kept saying things like, "That's fine but why were you so rude about it?" I knew full well that I wasn't rude and all witness always confirm it and everytime I tell that story, I always start out my defense with the fact that what they had done was rude, not the reaction it caused in me. It suddenly dawned on me today what was happening. When they act rude and I respond, they are seeing *themselves* in the "mirror" of my glamour. It doesn't matter what I say. It may sound crazy but I'm sure that's what is happening. So now I have to figure out how to fix it and I'm really sorry I used the mirror image as a shield. That was a bit vengeful on my part and I'm paying for it.

[Demeter]

How about if you redo the shield not using a mirror, but using a lightning rod image? The rod would attract the negative energy into it and lead it down to ground in the earth and dissipate it harmlessly.

[Mithrea]

I'd have to think about that to see if I could visualize it properly to make it work but that's a really great suggestion. Thanks! :)
