PREPARING FOR MAGICK ...
Read the instructions through and familiarise yourself with them ... it doesn't do to be constantly referring to a piece of paper. Try to set the scene by finding a quiet spot where you can work undisturbed for a short while. It doesn't have to be a solo exercise. You can work with someone else but you will both need to be on the same wavelength. Have a relaxing bath or shower beforehand, this will dispel any negativity that you may have picked up during the day, and select clothes that you are comfortable in, (that's if you are planning to wear anything ... many don't bother). Make sure that you have everything to hand. Any oil can be used to annoint the candle, the purpose of the cleansing, consecrating and annointing being to rid it of any unwanted negative energies also. Then you are both clean and ready to go. Some schools of thought have devised very elaborate rituals for this simple act of annointing the candle, but in practise we find that the simpler the ritual the better. Remember that you can inscribe words onto the candle, and again different authorities have different ideas about how to do this and what to put, but again we say keep it simple. Don't be afraid to do things your own way.
Be sure that you use a safe method of holding the candle ... trying to 'stick' it to a saucer isn't a good idea simply from a safety point of view.
Everything else that you need to know is in the box.
