Newman’s investigation of the Martin house is unlike any other.,
and murder. When the evidence becomes overwhelming,
When author Rich Newman first arrives at the battered doublewide trailer deep in the Mississippi Delta,
it’s clear that this is no ordinary haunting. Called from Memphis to assist a local ghost hunting team,
long-buried memories from Newman’s own past come back to haunt him—memories he’d rather forget. Collecting physical evidence,
researching the violent history of the property,
Newman’s investigation of the Martin house has become his most terrifying and mysterious case. What starts out as a malicious assault manifesting as deep rumbling sounds quickly spirals into a story of obsession,
and sorting through the spiritual implications of demons
will, with harm to none and for the good of all. Okay, we have clear intent for what we need. Now, we (finally) move on to the third
step. Third, we decide on what spell we want to use and
make sure that we’ve got all the ingredients necessary. For the sake of simplicity, let’s go with a basic candle spell.
For the spell, we would need to gather a green or gold
candle; (green for abundance or gold for success, for more see Colors of Magic on page TK), Basic Money Oil (prepared in advance; recipe given later, see page TK), a piece of new, unlined paper and a pen. After you have gathered
your spell ingredients, it is time for the fourth step; medi-38 Chapter 2
tation. Gather the spell ingredients on an altar table and sit before it. Now, go into your meditative state and once you are (if you are using the Autumn Tree mediation) at
the door in your imagination, open the door and see a
blank screen inside. On this screen, see an image come
into view as if you were watching a movie. See yourself
on the screen holding two one hundred dollar bills, a fifty dollar bill and a one dollar bill; your goal, $251.00. Then, let the image fade and see each of the bills that you need to pay come up on the screen and see a BIG “paid” stamp
on each one.
Now, consider how you will feel when your bills are paid. Feel the relief (or whatever) wash over you. Bask in this feeling. Let this feeling inspire you to succeed. Build the will to manifest your goal. Feel yourself creating the magical energy to bring you money (what happens is that
you create a change in your personal energy and make it
“hum” at the “abundance frequency”). Now, pick up the
green or gold candle and hold it firmly in your dominant
hand (right, if right handed) and mentally send your en-
ergy into the candle. You are “charging” the candle with
your thought (visualization), emotion (feeling), and will
power (energy); send it all into the candle (mentally).
Next, anoint the candle with the money oil. Anoint it
from the middle to the top and again from the middle to
the bottom as if you are filling it with power (which you
have and are). Now pick up the pen and paper and write a

rhyming chant including your goal (a spell). For the sake
of example, I have one prepared:
Bills unpaid, looming threat;
I need some help, relief from debt;
$251.00 my goal,
With Harm to None, For Good of All
Bills are paid, joy is here;
Money woes disappeared!
Now you have two choices when you cast this spell; ei-
ther you burn the paper in the candle flame (which means
you will need a heatproof dish to set it in) or you can place the paper beneath the candle and once the spell has been
cast, fold the paper up and keep it in your wallet until the goal has manifested. If you choose to burn the paper it is a good idea to copy the chant down in your magical journal
along with all of the other pertinent information. After
you have written the spell on the paper, charge the paper
in the same manner that you charged the candle; holding
it in your dominant hand. When this is done, either place
the paper underneath the candle (if you are saving the
paper) or set it in front of the candle (if you are going to burn the paper). Now, if you are going to burn the paper;
light the candle and then, say the spell while you burn
the paper. If you are going to keep the paper, say the spell as you light the candle. Either way; summon all of your
focus and intent and as you say the spell “breathe out”
the magic. What I mean is; take a full breath and speak

the spell and with the rest of your breath, mentally send
the power out into the cosmos. Finally, clap your hands
together once to affirm that it is done.
Once the spell has been cast, you can either leave the
candle to burn out (if it is safe to do so); which is best or you can extinguish the candle with a candle snuffer or the back of a spoon (don’t blow it out;
