You may find it hard to understand where you are coming from, what others are thinking & feeling.
You are in a more psychic & intuitive phase than usual, so it will be important for you to trust your instincts & your impressions.
If you feel you can't trust someone, then you probably can't.
If you are waiting on an answer from someone, it may take longer than you would like for it to.
This is not a time to make business decisions based on anything other than absolute concrete fact.
For those that use alcohol or drugs, this is a time when it is definitely easy to over do it.
This is a very spiritual time & a great time to get a reading, healing work, or other helpful input from spiritual types.
You are more psychically open than usual now; pay attention to your thoughts, feelings & to flashes of information that come seemingly out of nowhere.

Leave the candle to burn down until it extinguishes itself.
To conclude the spell, the candle stub should be burned, or buried in the remains of the clothing from which you cut the square.
