Color of the day: Blue
Incense of the day: Patchouli Ekeko, the South American god of prosperity, is honored today. To ensure a year of prosperity, fashion a representation of Ekeko out of clay or salt dough. He is always pictured as a small, pot-bellied man with an open mouth and a mustache. He wears a hat, trousers, and a poncho and is loaded with baskets. Fill his baskets with money, grains, candy, and any other symbols of prosperity that you wish to manifest this year. As you work, visualize the good fortune you will experience in the coming year. When you have finished the god, set him in a comfortable place in your home and place a lighted cigarette in his mouth for his pleasure. As the cigarette burns, ask Ekeko to bless you with abundance and a year of prosperity. Each successive January 24, replenish his baskets with money and food and light him another cigarette. |
