Need: black candle, pink candle, red candle and white candle and your favourite coloured candle (eg, if your favourite colour is 'purple' you need a purple candle.) Item or pic of loved one. (if can't get their name and description is ok.)

Face north and put the black candle farthest away from you, at the north, the red east and pink west and finally the white south (that should be closest to you.) Now you have a diamond shape. Place the item/pic of your loved one in the centre

. Light the candles in the order of: black, white, pink, red. Saying: "Fire (black), Air (white), Earth (pink) Water" then focus on the item/pic and say "spirit."

Tthen light your favourite coloured candle and hold it.(BE CAREFUL!!!) Focus on the item/pic and get a mental picture of the person, then say the words:

"I call upon the goddess' Aphrodite, Venus and Lakshmi to work thy will, Bring the warmth of love, never a chill
I call upon you aid me in love
I call upon the powers above,
Guide my love with (insert name),
From this day forth may it be proclaimed,
Work thy wonder this I request,
now my soul at peace may rest. "

Blow out the candles in the order you light them - starting with black!

Significance of items: Black candle=negativity, white candle=purity that washes out the negativity. pink and red candles sign love. The pic/item/description about the one you love. Your favourite candle is about you it connects you with the person. Goddess'Aphrodite andvenus is the goddess' of love. and Lakshmi is the goddess of prosperity.
