YULE – FOR MEN
The cauldron is placed by the south candle with an unlit candle in it. Wreath
the cauldron with Holly, Ivy and Mistletoe.
Stand before the altar with arms upraised, say:
“Queen of the Moon, Queen of the Sun
Queen of the Heavens, Queen of the Stars
Queen of the Waters, Queen of the Earth
Bring to us the child of promise!
It is the great Mother who gives birth to Him
It is the Lord of Life who is born again
Darkness and tears are set aside when the sun shall come up early!”
Take a candle from the altar and light the candle in the cauldron, say:
“Golden Sun of hill and mountain
Illumine the Land, illumine the World
Illumine the Seas, illumine the Rivers
Sorrows be laid, joy to the World!
Blessed be the great Goddess
Without beginning, without ending
Everlasting to eternity
Io Evo! He! Blessed Be!
Io Evo! He! Blessed Be!…”
To make a Yule Log, simply choose a dried piece of oak and decorate with burnable ribbons, evergreens, holly, and mistletoe. To make a Yule Log with candles (suitable for indoor observances when a fireplace is not available), you will need a round log at least thirteen inches long and five inches thick. Flatten the bottom of the log with a saw (preferably a power saw) by trimming off an inch or two so the log will sit without wobbling. Next determine where the three candle holes should be drilled along the top of the log. They should be evenly spaced. The size of the holes will be determined by the size candles you are using. Drill the holes 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch to accommodate the candles.
The log with candles may be painted or sprayed with varnish or shellac to keep it from drying out. When the varnish is dry, insert candles and decorate it with holly, evergreens, and mistletoe. Candles may be green, red, and silver or white to represent the Oak King, the Holly King, and the Goddess; or white, red, and black to represent the Triple Goddess.
The Yule Log, an ancient symbol of the season, came to us from the Celts. The log, a phallic symbol, is usually cut from an Oak tree, symbolic of the god. The entire log was decorated with holly, mistletoe, and evergreens to represent the intertwining of the god and goddess who are reunited on this Sabbat. The log was burned in the hearth or fireplace. Modern pagans also have the option of using pieces of oak small enough to be burned in the cauldron.
In modern times, another tradition has emerged since not everyone has fireplaces. Three holes are bored in the top of the log for three candles, representing the goddess in her three aspects — maiden, mother, and crone. Normally these candles are white, red, and black in honor of this triple aspect. This log may be reused year after year, with the candles changed each year.
An ancient rhyme of unknown origin reflects the importance of the Yule Log on this Sabbat:
May the log burn,
May the wheel turn,
May evil spurn,
May the Sun return.
The ashes of the yule log or spent wax from candles are tied up in a cloth for the entire year as a charm for protection, fertility, strength, and health.

Have a special someone you wish to contact, an old friend that you’ve had a falling out with, communicate with anyone. You will be amazed at how many way you will be able to use this spell.
Light a blue candle. Write a personal, positive, and meaningful letter to someone your desire to contact. Burn the letter in the candle flame (carefully). As it burns, visualize the person’s face and the goal or message you want to send. Toss some thyme, yarrow or cinnamon on the burned letter. Concentrate on what manner you hope to receive their response. Pick up the remains and scatter the ashes and herbs.
To help you make a decision, or to neutralize your trouble, light one white votive candle,
and one gray, deep blue, or magenta candle. Stand before a window, and visualize your
troubles going into a glowing black orb which surfaces from the Earth. Psychically push
the ball back down when you are finished. Don’t forget to push the ball back!
Your energy will go into the Earth as neutral.
If you got ’em, go ahead and light ’em because today is ‘Worldwide Candle Lighting Day.’ Let’s take a closer look at some of the ways Feng Shui says that candles can illuminate certain aspirations in your life. For starters, this philosophy prescribes lighting a pair of pink candles in the ‘Romance’ area of your main floor or bedroom in order to light the way for a perfect partner of the happily ever after kind. Lighting nine red candles in the ‘Fame’ area is believed to bring plenty of recognition and reward while also heating up opportunities to create a more fabulous future. A group called ‘The Compassionate Friends’ asks each of us to light a candle on this night at seven o’clock in remembrance of all the children who have died at any age from any cause. This day is set aside to commemorate the memory of wee ones who have left the world too soon. Today you can participate in a worldwide event that promises that you can be the light that you were born to be.

Items You Will Need:
Lighter/Matches
Pink Candle
Musk Oil
Pin
Marjoram
Little pink or red pouch
Metal or glass place
The Spell
On the pink or red cloth write the words:
“dream of me, be with me.”
On the other side of the cloth, write:
“just a little nudge.”
Cast the circle, call the quarters, the usual.
Dim the lights, leave a candle if you wish. Take the pink candle and anoint it with musk oil while thinking ot the intended. Scratch the name of the person on one side of the candle with the pin and the word love on the other. Place the cloth in the plate with the “just a little nudge” facing down. Light the candle and affix the cloth to the plate by letting hot wax drip on the corners of the cloth.
While visualizing your desire, use the wax dripping to form the shape of a heart in the middle of the cloth. Drip some wax in the center of it and place the candle there. With the candle burning, empower a pinch of marjoram by pinching it tightly between your fingers and feeling your energy flow into it.
Sprinkle the marjoram on the place touching the heart and candle. Let the candle burn down. Crinkle the hard pool of wax as much as you can while thinking of your desire. Take the remains of the wax, marjoram and the cloth and put them in the small pouch.
Sleep with the pouch under your pillow and by using dream direction, allow yourself to dream of the intended (even if in the morning you don’t remember the dream, don’t fret, you probably dream of the person). Sleep like this for as long as needed until the day comes when you are going to meet the person.
Then take the pouch with you. When you see that person, wait until the time is right. Close your eyes and touch the pouch. Feel it’s power. Open your eyes and glance straight at your intended. Now it is time for Fate to run its course.
More Back Ground Comments
Candles have been used for many years in rituals, to set an atmosphere and help to focus on a desired result of a the ritual. Here are steps to to take when dressing a candle for a ritual or for requesting a desired result. When working with candles, you will see that no two candles are alike, they each have their own character. (drip, flame, sound )
* Choose the candle to be used : type and color ( green for money, black/ white for cleansing).
* Cleanse the candle from prior energies. Here are some suggestions for cleansing:
A: Holy water
B: Sea salt
C: Pure soap
D: Baby oil
* Bless / Consecrate your oil to be used.
* State and engrave (if desired) what the candle is to represent (money, love, job, taking away unwanted habits, etc.)
* Anoint the candle with the oil you have chosen (it is important to focus on your desire when doing this).
A: — To achieve : start on the top to the middle in a downward motion(stop) then go the bottom to the middle in an upward motion(stop).
B: — To banish : start in the middle to top (stop) then go from the middle to the bottom (stop). Do not use a back and forth motion, it defeats the purpose.
* Bless / Consecrate the candle. Your candle is now ready to use. Light your candle with an incense of your desire or deity. Do not use matches, a lighter or incense should be used. honestly I know not why, just that the sulfur is the problem. But every book I have read states this, and I have read many.)
Meditate as long as possible (many don’t have a lot of time past 15min.) on your desired outcome while your candle is burning. Let the candle burn till the end.
If and when you need to extinguish your candle, snuff it out or swipe your hand enough to let the air blow it out. Do not blow or pinch it out. As blowing it out blows your desires away from you and pinching it out also pinches out your desires.
SPELL TO STOP SOMEONE FROM STEALING

You will need:
a black candle
pin
olive oil

Take the candle, wipe it down and carve out the bottom so the wick is exposed.
Stand the candle on it’s head and light the bottom wick – gaze at the flame, concentrate and say:

It’s time for you to stop this behavior.
By my will you shall cease
and restore in me a sense of peace.”
Let the candle burn out and if you can bury the stub near where the person lives or
where they most commonly commit their crime – otherwise bury under a tree.
BLACK ART SPELL
To stop an enemy from bringing harm, here is what you must do,
procure a special oil, of Dragon’s blood and Rue.
Add to it a pinch of poppy, nightshade and some thyme,
add to that three tiny drops, of some bitter wine.
Anoint a black candle with your victim’s name and seal it with an “X”, then chant these words most carefully, to send forth this darksome hex:
Darksome powers of the night,
gather round my candle’s flame,
send my enemy in shaded flight,
send my enemy away in shame.
Say this chant 13 times, on the darkest moon,
The Old Ones then will hear your plight and will grant your boon.
23 Blutmonath
Chiron’s Day
Color: Grey
Element: Air
Altar: On a grey cloth set a pile of books, a flute, a pot of salve, and a chalice of Greek wine.
Offerings: Votive candles. Offer to teach or mentor someone.
Daily Meal: Vegetarian
Invocation to Chiron
Tutor of the children of Gods,
Mentor of heroes,
Teacher of legends,
Wild centaur nurtured
By light of Sun and Moon
Into something more than
Mere wildness and savagery.
Someone had to teach them,
These half-powerful youths,
And who better than the one
Who is half sage and half beast?
Wounded by your own student,
Doomed to an immortality
Of pain and suffering,
You cheated your fate
By gifting life on one
Reviled by the powerful
And loved by the weak.
Chiron, Teacher, Wise One,
You who always knew
The right thing to do,
Share with us this certainty
And mentor us in our confusion.
Chant:
In your hands the flame of learning
In your flesh the fire of burning
In your eyes the force of sorrow
Give us insight for tomorrow.
(Pour out the libation for Chiron, sit around the altar with votive candles, and meditate on doing the just and right thing in every circumstance, no matter how painful.)
