I don't believe that. My most special candle is a once-big
red (though a bit lighter than blood red) that I made in
late 1986 or 1987 in a Black Velvet rye whiskey tube
with paraffin (that you can buy, often for sealing jam
bottles) with an added red crayon, and I associate it
with Cosma (the someone who is that which most modern
cosmologists believe began with the Big Bang, and
which I believe is a subset of all/everything).
But the candles attempt failed, and I am now making
a Wolf Moon/Epiphany attempt as described in the
thread "back to basics" on alt.religion.druid .
And if my stuff works, animal and human sacrifice
will no longer work, even if they did before,
and indeed will have a deterrent and bounce.

alone the plans you make; Decisions they will try to break" (S. McLachlan)
