Spells of Santería for money

Greetings, dear traveler of the mystical paths. I’m Amira Asmodea, and today I want to walk with you through the gentle but powerful world of Santería spells for money. I understand that navigating the rich traditions of Santería can feel like peering into a deep, enchanted forest — mysterious, sometimes tangled, but with golden light waiting just beyond the trees. Let me guide you with warmth and care. Spells of Santería for money To speak plainly: Santería spells for money aren’t as widespread or simply shared as those from some other spiritual traditions like Voodoo or Wicca. That’s partly because Santería is a complex, living religion blending African roots, Caribbean culture, and Catholic elements — a beautiful tapestry where rituals often span long ceremonies and require many carefully chosen components. In my experience, the magic in Santería flows slowly, patiently, like a river widening over time. When I set out to gather spells specifically aimed at attracting money within Santería, I found that much of the available information is either scarce, diluted, or worse — commercialized far from authentic practice. Thankfully, I’ve uncovered one simple spell, tried and true for myself and many friends, that honors the spirit of Santería and invites abundance with heartfelt respect.

What Makes Santería Unique for Money Magic?

Santería’s spiritual world is rich with Orishas — divine spirits who oversee different aspects of life, much like saints in Catholicism but with African origins and distinct personalities. When it comes to matters of money, stability, and healing, a key figure is Babalu Aye, the Orisha who cares for those in hardship, illness, and poverty. In Santería’s syncretism, you’ll find Babalu Aye represented by Saint Lazarus, a humble and kind figure who watches over the poor and sick. This blending of beliefs is a beautiful reminder that money magic in Santería is less about chasing wealth and more about restoring balance, hope, and dignity during tough times.

A Simple and Free Spell of Santería for Money

This spell calls upon St. Lazarus/Babalu Aye to gently open the flow of money in your life. It’s accessible — you likely have everything you need at home.
  • One blue candle
  • One white candle
  • A cup of coffee
  • Some bills or coins
  • A pencil or pen
The blue candle honors the divine and spiritual clarity, while the white candle represents purity and protection. Coffee is a traditional offering loved by St. Lazarus — it symbolizes warmth and life’s simple comforts. How to perform the spell:
  1. Choose a Sunday, considered a sacred day for honoring saints and Orishas.
  2. Light both the blue and white candles, placing them safely together.
  3. Prepare a fresh cup of coffee and set it near the candles as an offering to St. Lazarus.
  4. Take each bill or coin you wish to bless and write on it gently with the pencil: "Lazarus blesses the owner of this bill with a lot of money, and blesses me also."
  5. Keep these bills in your wallet or your main place where you store money.
  6. Allow the candles to burn completely — never leave candles unattended, so plan your time wisely.
  7. Once done, drink the coffee mindfully, as a way to absorb the blessing and gratitude.
  8. Take what remains of the coffee and pour it onto the Earth — perhaps your garden or a potted plant — to ground the energy and give back to the natural world.
In my experience, this simple ritual opens doors in unexpected ways. Some friends have felt a shift in their financial flow soon after, while others notice a warmer sense of confidence and readiness to receive abundance. This spell is less about instant riches and more about inviting a better relationship with money — one filled with gratitude, care, and trust.

Why St. Lazarus?

St. Lazarus is not just a figure of charity but one of transformation. His presence reminds us that even in hardship, there is hope and healing. When we call upon him, we invite a magic that goes beyond coins and bills — a magic that heals our wounds around money, restores faith in our own worth, and opens our hands to both give and receive.

Questions readers often ask

Can I do this spell if I am not a Santería practitioner?
Absolutely. Many rituals respect universal principles like gratitude, respect, and focused intention. If you approach it with sincerity and care, this spell can be a gentle aid on your path. Why use coffee in the spell?
Coffee serves as an offering to St. Lazarus. It’s a humble gift symbolizing warmth and hospitality in many cultures. Giving something pleasing to the spirit you honor is a way to connect and open communication. What if I don’t have a blue candle?
White candles are often a safe alternative, representing clarity and purity. But if you want to honor the tradition and can find a blue candle, its calming and spiritual essence adds potency. How often can I repeat this spell?
Spells like these aren’t about rushing or repetition. Traditionally, doing it once or a few times on special days allows the intention to root deeply. Repeating it too often might dilute the meaning.

Respecting Santería Traditions

It’s important to remember that Santería is a living religion, practiced with rituals, community, and deep respect for its origins. While simple spells can be beautiful, they are just tiny reflections of a vast spiritual world. Whenever possible, learning directly from practitioners or respectful sources is the best path.
