Goddess Alex - sounds like we need a 2nd ritual thread for clearing out those "blacklashes"? But your Elephant ritual is profound and on point. I'm not sure if I've mentioned my elephants before on a thread, but I have a few myself that I sculpted from clay. I learned through my studies that elephants are some of the best conduits for channeling spiritual energy into the home.
I have blue elephants, green, light blue, black and one red. Green as you've mentioned is perfect for attracting wealth, growth or even ideas that bring about wealth. The green one is near the bed and another green one is at the door to attract the energy of wealth. Blue attracts clear visions, truth, health etc., I keep the blue one for channeling.
I have a sky blue feminine elephant that the Queen dressed up in rhinestones and gold paint, she says is commands peace of mind. The black neutralizes negative energy. The red one is for creativity. You can also "sacrifice" a green elephant by the really small cheap ones, dressing them in olive oil and at the same time placing your intent of wealth and power into them.
You can give them as gifts or leave them around somewhere where people you'd want to see blessed financially to find them. There's another ritual a Spanish Brother told me that works with a green candle and wild rice. He said he would do a ritual on Saturday night on the Church steps, he'd rub the candle down the the intent to draw money to himself, he'd light it and sit a dollar bill under the candle in front the Church or on the steps. I'm not sure why he'd sprinkle wild rice all over the dollar but he said his Grandmother did it so he does it too. The idea of course is that come Sunday morning, the person opening up the Church most likely takes up the dollar and put it into the collection. We assume. Or some homeless person comes by and takes it. Either way he swears by this ritual.
They use the Saint Candles.
There is also some that Hindus use that are green elephant candles that appear to be powerful as well.
