This is a Oshun 7 day Candle to honor and call upon Oshun - one of the 7 African Orishas.  Oshun is known as the river Orisha or Goddess.  She is associated with water, purity, fertility, love, and sensuality.   A traditional 7 day candle should be allowed to burn for 7 days straight, but if that is not possible, snuff out the candle (never blow out candles as they blow out your intentions) and when you are ready to relight it - refocus on your intentions and light it and allow it to burn for as long as you can.  Be sure you burn it for 7 consecutive days
