Green 7 Day Glass Candle
The Color of Money. The Color of Growth. The Color of Everything That Is Coming Into Being.
Green is not a complicated color. It does not require a long explanation or a theological framework or a tradition that stretches back centuries to justify its use. It is the color of the living world of leaves and grass and the first shoots of spring pushing up through soil that was frozen a week ago. It is the color of money in the American tradition, which is not a coincidence: money is, at its root, a form of energy, and green is the color of energy that grows, that multiplies, that renews itself season after season without being asked to.
In the botanica and hoodoo tradition, the green candle is one of the most essential and most reached-for candles in the entire catalog. It is the candle you burn when you need more — more money, more health, more abundance, more growth, more of whatever has been scarce. It is the candle you burn when a business needs to expand, when a body needs to heal, when a financial situation needs to turn, when the ground of your life needs to become fertile again after a season of drought. It works across all of these because they are all, at their root, the same thing: the need for the living, growing, renewing energy of the natural world to flow into your situation and do what green things do; grow.
The green candle is also the candle of patience and of process. Unlike the fast-moving energy of red or the sudden luck of orange, green works the way plants work, steadily, consistently, building something real over time. You do not plant a seed and harvest it the same day. You plant it, you tend it, you give it what it needs, and you trust the process. The green candle is for people who are willing to do that — who want abundance that is real and lasting, not just a quick turn of luck that disappears as fast as it came.
The Green 7 Day Glass Candle carries that steady, growing, money-drawing, health-restoring, abundance-building energy through seven full days of burning.

How to Work This Candle
Be specific about what you want to grow. The green candle responds to clarity. Write your petition naming the financial goal, the health outcome, the business milestone, the abundance you are calling in. Put a number on it if you can: a specific amount of money, a specific number of new clients, a specific outcome for your health. Vague abundance produces vague results. Specific abundance produces specific results. Place the petition beneath the candle. Dress the top of the glass with Money Drawing oil, Prosperity oil, or Healing oil depending on your primary intention — or a combination if you are working across multiple areas. Surround the base of the candle with coins for money work, or with herbs — basil for money, mint for prosperity, chamomile for healing — placed around the base to reinforce the working. Green candles work well burned consistently over time: light it each morning, speak your petition, and tend it the way you would tend something you are growing. Because that is exactly what you are doing.
Each candle is approximately 8 inches tall and burns for up to 7 days.
