– liquors: spirits, mescal, tequila etc.
– 3 white candles
– flowers and vases
– 1 cigarette or cigar
– wooden matches
Use any flowers you can buy: if possible, it is better that someone gives them to you or that you cut them from your own flowerpots.
First, take a sip of the drink you have chosen. Then, take another sip and spray the drink that is in your mouth all over your site of worship. It is important that you only spread the contents of one sip, and make sure that the altar is in a well-ventilated place and without any flame lit to avoid accidents. Then, pray 3 Lord’s Prayers and 3 Hail Marys.
Fill the glass of the Holy Death with the drink. Then, light the cigarette or cigar with a wooden match and blow the smoke of the cigar on the altar and the image. You must do this nine times and then say the following prayer:
In the name of the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
immaculate being of divine light,
I beg you to grant me the favours I ask,
until the last day, hour and moment
in which your Divine Majesty
commands to take me
before your presence.
Death dear to my heart,
do not forsake me of your protection.
So be it.
While praying, light the candles and the incense, and put the flowers in the vases. It takes 9 weeks to enshrine the altar; every Friday from the first Friday, you will say nine times this prayer or novena, with the candles lit and the incense burning, and changing the flowers when they begin to wilt because they must always look good.
The prayer for the enshrinement must not be interrupted, but if for any reason this happens, you must start again from the begi
In order to begin, the altar must be set up in this order: first the altar, and then the prayer to the Most Holy and some Lord’s Prayers. Once the tablecloth is placed, light a white candle dedicated to the Holy Death and pray again. Light the candle with your right hand. Once the candle is lit, place the image you have chosen on the altar. The image must have been washed one day before and left to dry in the open on the previous afternoon. To enhance her power, you may impregnate the image with the perfume you use. It is important not to do all this in front of people who are not from the house, so they do not disturb the Holy Death’s energies.
It is advised to cleanse the altar every 9, 18 or 27 days. If you miss the date, you can cleanse it on a Tuesday, preferably at noon; never in the early morning, afternoon or evening, or when there is bad weather.
Wash the tablecloth, the plates, glasses, incense-burners and other elements. Except the tablecloth, the objects are cleaned with a damp cloth or are shaken, but they are never washed because the essence of the offerings must be preserved. These objects are cleaned and then put back in their place. All the good and bad energy of the altar goes to the tablecloth; and that is why you must wash it to keep it always pure.
If you do a job for another person, all the objects must be thrown once the worship has been finished. The objects ca
Offerings must be thrown away; you must not drink, eat or smoke them. In theory, their essence has been lost because the Holy Death has taken it.
You must throw away the withered flowers and water, because they absorb the bad energy of the environment. The candles, when burnt out, must be thrown away, especially those that are special offerings.
The Holy Death is asked for special favours in times of need: she protects you and your family. To get good results, personal rituals must be done with a lot of faith, devotion and confidence in what you are doing. It must be something necessary or considered fair. Everything has a price and satisfying a whim can be very expensive.
Do not be in a hurry, it is important to devote as much time as necessary to do the rituals, look for hours. You must also be in the best possible physical conditions and take care that your health is optimal at the time of doing the rituals, including not being sleepy, drunk or drugged.
If another person asks you for a petition, remember that you will need twice as much faith, devotion and confidence in doing the ritual. To help others you need to have the vocation and the gift to do so, there are people who were born for it. You should not do it for money, or for any personal interest.
You ca
You must fulfil all the promises you make to the Holy Death. Wash your hands before and after doing a ritual. If you do not know the prayers, you can read them.
Another Ritual of Consecration
This is another way to consecrate your image so that the entity enters it as many times as you need. It is more effective if you do it on a Saturday.
Ingredients:
– liquid of rose
– liquid of rue
– petals of red roses or red carnations
– incense and myrrh (in grain)
– 1 censer
– natural water
– 1 bucket to wash the Holy Death
– bee honey
– 1 spoon
Procedure:
Put the natural water and the liquids of rose and rue in the bucket. Add the petals and a little honey. Mix everything with a wooden spoon and wash the image. Light the candles on the altar to welcome the image. Light the incense with the mixture of myrrh. Immerse the image in the bucket and ask her to come and enter the image while saying:
Holy Death,
I am calling you
to come to this place
and take this image that I bless
in the name of the Father,
the Son and the Holy Spirit.
So be it.
When you finish, place the image on the altar that should be already prepared.
6.1. Offerings
Wines and Liquors
Wines and liquors are essential because the Holy Death loves alcoholic beverages and the stronger the more she likes them, and it is an ancient and traditional offering. The offering of wines and liquors will depend on how much each person can spend to buy them. The most important thing is to offer them with a lot of love and faith. Wines and liquors should be served in glasses or glass goblets and changed when they are cloudy, mouldy or have dust.
The wines and liquors that she prefers are those with a high alcoholic content, such as: spirits, tequila, rum, mescal and beer. They should be served in a glass or glass goblet.
Cigars and Cigarettes
Our Holy Death likes them very much. It is recommended that you keep the cigar unlit during the first day and you light it during the second day. Cigars are used in many special rituals or when you profess an African-origin religion such as Santeria or Palo Mayombe. It is better to used them as leaf tobacco since it contains less harmful substances.
Once the cigar is lit, you should place it next to the Holy Death. This will help to ward off envy around your work, business or family. If it is a cigar, smoke it and exhale the smoke to purify the altar and remove all negative energy. This can be done as often as you think is convenient.
Flowers
Flowers are frequent offerings and any flowers can be used as long as they are offered with faith. The Holy Death likes roses, carnations, tuberoses, gardenias, tulips… The important thing is that they are fresh, and the most recommended are the flowers from the fields because they are pure. Roses are the most commonly used. White flowers are used to attract health and to prevent spiritual and physical illnesses. Red flowers are related to love, emotions, spiritual stability, passion and desire. It is important to remove the flowers when they start to wither, because they capture all the surrounding negative energy and we do not want this energy to remain. If you need to get money and work, good economy, the flowers should be yellow.
