The Spellcaster's Source Hoodoo and Voodoo Witchcraft Blog of Talia Felix

While many hoodoo magical spellcasts are meant to be done for a certain length of time -- 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, etc. -- some works are meant to be a part of one's daily life, at least for a span. Sometimes one is instructed to burn a candle every day. The Black and White Magic of Marie Laveau uses this tactic many a time. Many Henry Gamache candle spells also do this. The question then becomes, for how long should I burn the candle in such a spell? Or what if the spell says to burn the candle for an hour a day, but I'm using a chime candle that only burns a couple hours total?
