Last NAN I explained how to petition the female Saints with
special requests. This time around I’ll provide some instruction
on how to ask to be put in the cosmic care of the Male Saints .
These are very ancient pagan rituals, which have been
popularized by the Christian Church. The basic methodology is to
put your request under the appropriately coloured candle on the
suggested day of the week along with an image of the Saint
(which you can often find on the Internet) and/or a symbol or
emblem that represents the Saint. Saint Anthony of Padua On a
Tuesday burn a brown candle for special requests, a green candle
for financial help or an orange candle to find a husband. St.
Anthony’s is a wonderworker when it comes to finding lost
articles, improving the memory and bringing back a strayed
lover. His emblem is the lily. Saint Alphonsu Liguori On a

aching muscles, joint pain and arthritis. Anything to do with

contagious diseases. Saint Bartholomew On a Tuesday burn a red

the butcher knife. Saint Benedict Burns a white candle on a
