Hi,I will be doing a spell & using angel names for it. Heres what I am going to do & the questions I have in mind-
You may find my questions very trivial as I have never done this before. Feel free to critique or add. I am reffering this link The Magical Calendar (excerpts) (http://www.esotericarchives.com/mc/index.html) for the sigils
as it was given to me by someone who is well versed with this type of magick but if you have other links which are easier to refer, go ahead.

The setup-
1. a star of david around the candle
2. sigils for angels on the candle
3. sigils for angels/planetory symbols on each of the points
4. YHVH on each like connecting the points
5. Time ..which I will discuss later

Questions-
1. Is a single candle enough? just one candle in the centre of the star of david OR 7 candles for 6 ponts & the centre? If I am not mistaken, the star of david has 6 points & not 12.

2. which angel names do i stick on the candle? Heres what I have in mind- anael which as dominion over the air, thereby influencing love, romance and passion. Is just anael enough or I need to add more names? & if I do, where do I add them? On the link which I am referring all angel names are attached with the name of another angel e.g Anael & Sagum. Is this suitable? I have tried google to find a seperate symbol for anael(also haniel) but to no avail. It is interesting to see that the 7 archangels are different in diferent books.
The 7 Archangels & The Throne Angels (http://steliart.com/angelology_7archangels.html)

3. Do I use angel sigils or planetory symbols for the 6 ponts?

4. No issues

5. Time.. this I will discuss later

You can use one or the other or both.

I don't really see anything wrong with your configuration. I think you are putting a bit too much importance in the little details. The basics are there and so long as you are comfortable invoking those particular names and your will is strong enough, you should get decent results pretty fast.
I have done love spells using several different methods and various Pantheons, bottom line is the better results always come from what makes you feel most at home when you're performing.
Props are mostly there to put you in the proper frame of mind. Mostly.

Thanks Sara. Thankyou Vardoger, I admit that sometimes I lay too much emphasis on the semantics but now that you said that, I'll keep it in mind :)
I do actually have a bit of problem with one name I can't connect to & it is YHWH. I think I'll use Lucifer instead or better Lucifer-Venus since they are in a way related & also happen to be my favourite entities.
