Candle Burning to Petition the Female SaintsWritten by Sam Stevens
Here they are, our Ladies of Mercy and Divine Benevolence. Petitioning Saints for Special Favours has been a big subject in chat rooms lately, so in spirit of Christmas and Goddess energies associated with these martyrs and popularized pagan deities, I have compiled a list that tells you how to use candle burning to request favours. When you ask Catholic Saints for help, it is common to write your request on a piece of paper and place it on appropriately coloured candle. If a totem animal, emblem or object is suggested, you can also place that item, or a picture of that item on her altar as well. If you can find a picture of Saint in a religious store and place it on altar that is even better. Saint Agnes Burn a white or blue candle on a Friday to ask for her help to: keep a husband faithful, find a soulmate, or reveal dishonesty in a relationship (find out truth about someone). Her animal is lamb. Saint Ann (also known as Anne and Ana) Burn a white candle on a Monday to ask her for a peaceful and happy home. She is patron Saint of grandmothers, housekeepers, housewives, mothers and women in labour. Petition her for help with deaf and blind. Saint Barbara Burn a red candle on a Saturday to drive a way evil, to protect your relationship from rivals, to protect yourself from meddling in-laws, to clear your path of obstacles, to help someone be released from prison and for protection from storms. She is also patron saint of wives whose men are at war. Her emblem is Tower. Saint Maria Goretti Burn a pink candle on a Friday to ask for fidelity in marriage, help with an abusive or battering male partner and a pardon from death penalty. Saint Brigid of Kildare Burn a yellow candle on a Sunday to ask her: to become fertile, for healing, for happiness and health of pets and farmyard animals, to assist with breeding livestock, for inspiration, for literary gifts (especially poetry) and gift of prophecy. Her symbol is a cow. Saint Clare of Assisi Burn a white candle on a Monday for protection against astral attack and for help overcoming addiction to drug and alcohol. Saint Catherine of Alexandria Burn a yellow or white candle on a Saturday to petition her for beauty, fertility, a peaceful death, confidence, seductiveness and confidence when public speaking. Her symbol is wheel.
| | Diamond Jewelry - The Ultimate Classic AdornmentWritten by Angela S Davis
Diamond jewelry is ultimate adornment for a woman or even a man. It is something which takes us beyond realm of time. Diamond jewelry is a timeless classic adornment, which can never go out of style and will always be looked up amongst all kinds of jewelry.In buying diamond jewelry it is important to keep some factors in mind. The diamond history, diamond shape (Diamonds come in more shapes than any other gem. Diamond jewelry with spectacular center pieces are available in round, emerald cut, heart, marquise, oval, pear, princess, radiant, and trillion. Diamonds as accents are usually found in small round shapes and baguettes. Popular earrings are usually round or princess cut, though some may come in fancier shapes), Diamond settings (such as bar, bezel, channel, chevron, invisible, pave, and prongs), diamond carats (The unit used to measure size and weight of loose diamonds), diamond clarity (Clarity is clearness of a diamond. The most valued diamonds are clearest. When shopping for a diamond, look for diamonds with grades from FL to SI2. Stones from VS1 to S2 are best value because they are lower in price without too many inclusions.) Diamond color (Diamonds that are colorless or near colorless are most prized.) And diamond cut (The diamond cut determines brilliance of diamonds. If a diamond is poorly cut, light is lost through sides and bottom of diamond and there will be no radiance) Diamonds are more commonly found in certain shapes; baguette, emerald, heart, marquise, oval, pear, princess, radiant, round and trillion. The most popular diamond shape has been round brilliant because people believed it to be an "ideal cut" that displayed most brilliance and sparkle in a diamond. The design also allows it to hide flaws and imperfections. However, new technology has made other shapes just as brilliant, such as princess cut and trilliant cut. Today, there is no such thing as an "ideal cut" when it comes to diamond jewelry.
