Vague: "I want to be rich"

Common Questions
How long until I see results?
Results vary widely. Some people notice opportunities within days, others within weeks or months. Factors include:
- Clarity of intention
- Strength of belief
- Action taken in physical world
- Current financial blocks
- Timing and readiness
Trust the process and stay open to how abundance might arrive.
Can I make multiple money jars?
Yes! You can have:
- One for emergency funds
- One for business success
- One for general prosperity
- One for specific goals
Just ensure each has a clear, distinct intention.
What if I need to add more money to my goal?
If your jar isn't wax-sealed, you can open it, update your petition with the new amount, and reseal. If it's wax-sealed, it's better to create a new jar for the new goal.

For specific amount jars: Yes, once you receive the money, thank the jar, dismantle it with gratitude, and return ingredients to earth.
For general prosperity jars: Keep them working indefinitely, recharging monthly.
Can I make a money jar for someone else?
Yes, with their permission. Include something personal from them (hair, signature, photo) and focus on their highest good. Give them the jar or tell them about it.
