This Novena for the Dead (Source: NovenaPrayers.Com), to be prayed for 9 consecutive days can help our transitioned loved ones in their journey to the other side.  This novena is, I believe,  a perfect substitute, although shorter, to the Philippine's traditional "Pa-Siyam" novena for the souls - siyam is "9" in the native language, minus the litany.  This must therefore prayed for 9 consecutive days (ideally in the evenings at 6 PM).
