5. **Chanting:** – Repeat the following words **five times** while maintaining focus on the candle’s light: “` O cheerful yellow, penetrate my mind, Improve my memory. Give me powers of great observation, May I remember all I seek to recall, May my concentration be perfect in all things big and small. “`

9. **Repeating the Ritual:** – Perform this ritual once a day for **nine consecutive days**. Each time, repeat the chant and concentrate on improving your memory.
10. **Finishing Touches:** – After the nine days are complete, thank the energy and intention you’ve invoked. You may also choose to dispose of the candle remnants respectfully, such as burying them, in a natural setting to symbolize the growth of improved memory.
### Additional Tips: – Keep a journal to track any changes in your memory and concentration over the nine days. This can help you reinforce the positive effects of the spell. – Ensure you’re also engaging in practical activities that support memory improvement, such as practicing mindfulness, getting enough sleep, and maintaining a healthy diet.
