Product Description
As with Our Lady of Charity, devotion for Our Lady of Regla is part of this wonderful potpourri, which is the basis of the Cuban nationality. The Virgin of Regla is syncretized with the Orisha Yemayá, owner of the moon, the seas and everything that lives there. Lady of Regla’s themes are kinship, protection, kindness, the moon, love, devotion, fertility and relationships. Her symbols are fish, the moon, silver (lunar) or blue items (Her favorite color) and the crab. This West Indian fish mother swims in with summer rains as the bearer of fertility, family unity, prospective life mate and other traditionally lunar energies. Shown in art looking much like a mermaid, the Lady of Regla is also the patroness of the Cancer astrological sign.
In astrology, those born under the sign of Cancer have a great deal of compassion, desire family closeness and stability and are ruled by the moon, all of which characterize this Goddess’s energies to a tee. How you emphasize those powers depends on what you need. For harmony at home, add blue highlights to our decorating scheme and ear pale blue clothing when having difficult conversations.
Prayer “Our sovereign Queen and Mother, Our Lady of the Rule, trusting in your motherly love for me I humbly kneel before you, the fount of goodness and mercy. Be my advocate and protector against all ills and miseries, I implore your mercy never to ignore my afflictions that presently torments my soul. Show yourself as a tender mother. Make me your worthy child as I purified my sins through the veneration of your Miraculous Image of the Rule. Refuse not my petition. Your generously aid and protect those who take refuge from you. Help me to be humble and grateful child always as I walk along the part of perfection, following the steps of your Divine son. May I rejoice with you in His presence in the everlasting glory of heaven. AMEN”

A prayer is said before the candle as it burns. When the candle is first lit this prayer is to ask for what you desire or what help is needed in your life. Lighting a prayer candle as a way to leave the old behind and begin a new life just as if you were born again, the sense being akin to the resurrection and it leaves your sins behind you, giving a new aspect and a new look into your life, without being burdened by your old sins and you old mistakes.
Prayer is the master key. Prayer is the key to all earthy problems. Praying is more than just mere words, it myst come from deep within you, from you very soul.
