Santa Clara is a Catholic saint venerated by Rootworkers in Espiritismo, Santeria, Voodoo, and Hoodoo, among others, for her incredible ability to bring clarity to any situation. In some lineages, she is synchronized with the orisha Obba or served as the loa Metrès Klemezin Klemay.
To obtain Saint Clare's assistance, all you need to do is pray. Simply light a white candle and place it next to a cold glass of water, then ask for clarity.
Santa Clara Prayer for Clarity
“Oh dearest Saint Clare,
In the midst of uncertainty, I come to you seeking clarity of vision. Illuminate my path with your divine light so that I may see clearly the direction you have laid out for me. Remove any obstacles that cloud my sight and guide me towards your purpose for my life. Grant me the clarity to discern between right and wrong, and the wisdom to follow the path that leads to your glory. Thank you for your unwavering presence and guidance.
Amen.”
Once you have the wisdom you seek, be sure to give thanks. Light another white candle, place another cold glass of water, and offer Santa Clara something white as a sign of appreciation. Hint: she loves white flowers!
