Hello, i am new here and had some question about petitions spell
Here they are:
- can I do more that 1 petition in one time. If they are related or do i have to put it all in the same one
- when I'm putting the petition under the candle, do I have lit it occasionally and meditate on it, or do I lit it once and then put the candle away until I got result.
Hello, Roenikaaa! I'm sorry for the long time in getting a response to your thread.
I'm not really certain what you mean by a petition spell. In ever case I've ever heard the term, 'petition,' used pertaining to a spell, it is the purpose of that spell. Another term some people use is, 'statement of inten [tion] .'
- can I do more that 1 petition in one time. If they are related or do i have to put it all in the same one
Each petition would get one spell cast for it in at least most cases (I can think of one exception, mentioned below). If you have more than one very closely related petition, it might be worth considering whether they can be combined into one, or done in succession to achieve a process for your eventual desired result in that particular matter.
- when I'm putting the petition under the candle, do I have lit it occasionally and meditate on it, or do I lit it once and then put the candle away until I got result.
That is up to you and the kind of working you're doing. Some spells are done once, and the practitioner believes the supernatural cogs of the universe are set into motion for their desired end results. Some spells are designed such that a working is not completed, but revisited with ritual regularity until the completion of the desired results. The latter is more often for slower workings, such as a sweetening jar, or with larger workings. A lot of effort and intention are poured into such a working.
As for putting the candle away, that's also up to your own beliefs, and again, the spell you're doing. Some people insist a candle must burn completely for a spell to work. Some believe it can be extinguished once the spell is case, and cleansed to be re-used, and some believe it can be extinguished, and only used for one spell so it should be discarded after. Some believe extinguishing a candle affects the outcome of the working. It's all up to your own preference in this case.
- should i put a lot of details or keep it short
That's totally up to you. In my own workings, I try to condense things as much as I possibly can. The rest can be a part of the working, and all feed into the simplest statement of intent I can manage.
So to the thing I mentioned earlier: Times when more than one statement of intent can be used at once:
This is sort of thing is not exactly doing a working for several things at once, but it is finalizing several things at the same time. The one specific instance I can think of is with sigils, common with chaos magicians. In this case, a practitioner would create a sigil for each statement of intent, and store it, display it, or otherwise hold on to it so its associaton is still subconsciously embedded, but the intention is not yet 'fired off' into the universe. At some point, said chaote would assemble the sigils still waiting to be finalized, and release the pent up energy through them so put them all into action. Of course, this is but one method of myriad possibilities for how to use sigils.
