Shiva is the third god in the Hindu triumvirate. The triumvirate consists of three gods who are responsible for the creation, upkeep and destruction of the world. The other two gods are Brahma and Vishnu.
Shiva’s role is to destroy the universe in order to re-create it.
Shiva is usually depicted as white, from the ashes of corpses that are smeared on his body, with a blue neck, from holding poison in his throat. His wears a crescent moon and the Ganges River as decorations in his hair and a garland of skulls and a serpent around his neck.
Lord Shiva holds a pivotal position in the Holy Trinity. … Many believe that God Shiva is a Sayambhu – which means He is not born from a human body. He was created automatically! He was there when there was nothing and He will remain even after everything is destructed.
Prakriti or Nature is the mother of Lord Shiva. Sathi is the first wife of Lord Shiva. Parvathi is the second wife of Lord Shiva and she is considered to be the rebirth of Sathi.

Prayer:

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. The exercise of prayer requires tranquility and peace of mind. The essence of prayer is faith, it is your motive power that comes from within you and its movement must be directed upwards to where all earthy favors come from.

Anyone can make their prayers come true. This is as sure as the rise of tomorrow’s sun. If you knew how you would feel if your prayer were answered, and if you could realize, consciously, just how you could awaken such a feeling in yourself, you will travel a long way toward learning how to make your dreams come true. Imagination is the beginning of creation. You must imagine what you desire and believe it to be true. True prayer can come only from within yourself.

Advise:

Shiva is very closely connected to Dionysus. Like Dionysus, he’s associated with intoxicating substances and sex magick. The shiva lingam crystal bears his name. Some consider Shiva the greatest physician and healer; he is also lord of fertility, protector of wild nature and even destroys social barriers. So, if there’s an issue or opportunity for which you’re experiencing discrimination, Shiva will help! His talents span many issues in which humans need help.
