Controlling 7 Day Glass Candle
Your Will. Your Terms. Your Control.
In the conjure tradition, there has always been a clear-eyed understanding that not everyone in your life will act right on their own. Some people need to be guided. Some need to be reined in. Some need to feel the steady, unmistakable weight of your will pressing down on theirs until they fall in line. For those situations, the rootworker reaches for the Controlling formula.
The Controlling 7 Day Glass Candle is a candle of sustained influence, not a single compelled action, but an ongoing current of dominance that keeps a specific person under your sway for as long as you work it. Burn it when you need someone to stay in their place, act according to your wishes, and remain under your influence day after day.
Traditional Uses
- Controlling a specific person's actions, behavior, and decisions
- Dominating a romantic relationship and keeping a partner devoted and obedient
- Reining in a difficult boss, coworker, family member, or neighbor
- Maintaining the upper hand and sustained influence over someone who has been acting out
- Stopping an enemy or troublemaker from moving against you
- Workplace domination such as compelling supervisors and colleagues to see things your way
How to Work This Candle
Write the name of the person you wish to control on a piece of paper. Some workers write their own name over the target's name nine times, crossing and covering it, to establish dominance. Place the petition beneath the candle. Dress the top of the glass with Controlling oil. Traditional workers add a pinch of calamus root or licorice root. Both classic commanding herbs in the conjure tradition to strengthen the hold. Light the candle with absolute authority in your intention. Speak your commands clearly: what you need this person to do, how you need them to behave, what you will not tolerate. Return each day and reinforce your dominance.
Each candle is approximately 8 inches tall and burns for up to 7 days.
