style="font-size:15px;"> Money
If the altar is in your business, offer the Holy Death the first sale of the day. You can leave money on the altar until you close or during the first 21 days of the opening of your business. Money is used in several rituals to improve the personal or family economy, and when you need to look for a new or a better job.
Fragances
Scents are also important. Their use is recommended because they serve to customise the altars. It is recommended to use some of your own fragrance on the image of the Holy Death.

Candles
Fire is one of the four main elements in any request or ritual. It represents a bridge between this world and the afterlife; but it is also a source of power and destruction.
When you light a candle, a call is made to the forces of nature: fire, air, water and earth. The earth is the wax, which is transformed into air.
When you light a candle, ask with devotion and faith, always visualising what you want to achieve, transmitting devotion and respect. Try to use strong colours and not pastel ones. It is better to light the candles with wooden matches and with the right hand if you are right-handed, or with your left hand if you are left-handed; since it is the hand we use the most and it will help us to have more strength.
You must let the candle burn completely, but if for any reason you must blow it out before it burns, its better do to it with wet fingers or with something metallic; never blowing it out, because it is another air element and that would dissipate the energy.
Look for candles of good quality, preferably made of paraffin wax and choose the colour in accordance with your needs. The colours mostly used are:
– White: To achieve peace and tranquillity, protection in your home, business or personal protection. This colours is also used in rituals of consecration (such as in the Holy Eucharist in Catholicism), purification, meditation, fortune telling, spells that imply healing, spiritual strength, clairvoyance, mediumship, to attract ancestors, etc.
– Yellow: To ask for money, liquidity, prosperity, work and any economic request in our lives, for wisdom and good luck.
– Orange: To ask for strength, and to attack and defend ourselves from the enemy.
– Pink: For sentimental requests of love, to draw hard hearts near, for friendship, or for any other ritual that implies femininity.
– Red: It represents strength and passion, for any request related with love, emotions, sex, passion or desire, to ask for the couple or marriage, and to achieve emotional stability.
– Golden: To open the roads in business and to get money, liquidity and economic stability, to be successful and to increase sales and economic benefits, for businessmen and merchants.
– Purple: For everything related to health, to be healthy and to reject illnesses.
– Blue: To ask for concentration in studies and mental strength, for any student, to boost intelligence, to solve professional problems at home, to soften the hearts of our superiors.
– Green: For legal problems, used amongst lawyers and people related to justice to achieve success.
– Coffee: To communicate with the afterlife, enhance clairvoyance, mediumship, concentration and telepathy, to overcome any obstacle in our daily life.
– Indigo: To be able to sleep, heal and increase our spirituality.
– Black: To return any negative energy sent to us, to have strength and power, for total protection, for annoying neighbours. It also helps to achieve the person’s goals and objectives without anyone bothering or finding out, it hides our true intentions in the eyes of potential enemies.
Interpretation of the Flames of the Candles
If the candle goes out on its own and for no apparent reason: This indicates that one part of the request will be granted, but for the other you will have to do your part with will and sacrifice to achieve what you have asked for.
If the candle keeps going out: it may be that the wick is too short or is misplaced: if this is the case, blow out the candle, let it cool down and replace it. If it continues to go out, this means that people envy you for all the things you do or have and your friends or people around you look at you with suspicion. Allow the candle to cool for a few minutes, pass it all over your body -starting with head and ending with the feet-, and light the candle again while saying a prayer.
If you have asked for something related with love or sentimental matters, it means that your request will not be concluded. You should pass the candle all over your body again, as I have described before.
If you have asked for money, you will have to be careful not to trust or lend money, because you will lose it and the person you lent it to will also lose it.
If the tip of the flame is bright, it is a very good sign that you will achieve your request and you will be lucky.
If the flame is small, it indicates that you will have to have a lot of patience for getting results because they will be slow and difficult. If it is a request for love, it means that there will be a disappointment with the couple or family. If it is related with money, the people around will make that your request is not achieved.
If the flame is normal, it does not move and its size is normal, it indicates that your request will be granted without problems. For this, you have to look at the candle for 3 minutes to make sure that the flame does not change.
To be considered normal, the flame should be blue and yellow. If you asked for something related with love, it means that you will soon come to terms with your partner, or someone close to you will get married. If it is related with the economy,
