Prosperity Spells - Why are they so hard to manifest?

I have done a few of these and while they haven't manifested the way that I wanted them to I did achieve some noticeable results.
A few of those results were in "money" form but the bulk of them were manifested in a way that - for lack of a better word - made my life a little less stressful.

I have viewed a few sites relating to the subject of why a spell could fail to manifest and while I have gotten the moon phase(s) and the materials right the only other things left are my state of mind, my focus and/or that the results were not meant to be.

I will keep trying though.

Mabon 2004!

This is the time of bounty and harvests and wine and preparing for the winter to come. The first day of Autumn is on Wednesday and I'm wondering if I have the date right? How come I have it listed on my calendar as starting on September 19th and lasting until the 23rd?

Did I Do This?

The thing happened with the rain again!

You know that the area is in the midst of Charley and Ivan and the weather forecast was supposed to be rain and some thunderstorms all night and the next day for my area (Phila). Well while I'm preparing to go out and do some shopping its so dark outside and I'm just hoping that I won't get caught in a rainstorm! So its so dark and I'm getting ready to go - I can't postpone because I'm out of supplies - so I resign myself to go. Guess what happens? Well it stays dark for a little while and I'm still thinking I'm gonna get caught in the rain. So I go in the grocery store and do my shopping. When I get out the sun is coming out and I'm thinking "yea" so I trek back home. Don't you know not 20 minutes later its starts to POUR DOWN rain!

It's so strange! But I'm very grateful!
