Paschang

The effects of the Sacramentals as a whole would therefore, depend upon the intention of the Church, that is to say, the intention which the Church had in instituting or receiving them...

John L. Paschang, Sacramentals According to the Code of Canon Law. (Washington, D.C.: Catholic University of America, 1925), 31.

Paschang has the same basic division of effects as Aertnys, and after listing them concludes above. He goes on to say that like the sacraments, the effects of the sacramnetals are dependant upon the will or the intention of the institutor, in this case the Church.

Aertnys - Theologia Moralis

Verumtamen Ecclesiae orationes apud Deum magnam vim habent ad impetrandum; diligit enim eam tamquam sponsam.

Never the less, the prayers of the Church have great power with God of obtaining favor, whom he loves as his spouse.

- Aertnys, Josef and Damen, C. A. Theologia Moralis: Secundum Doctrinam Sancti Alfonsi de Ligorio Doctor Ecclesiae, vol. 2. (Marietti, 1950), 35.

The special efficacy of the prayer of the Church is the basis of the power of sacramentals and therefore blessings. Here, Aertnys cites Thomas (n. 90-93 S. Thom. 3. qu. 87. a. 3.)

It will be necessary to establish the efficacy of the prayer of the church to be able to speak of the nature of blessings.

Aertnys - Theologia Moralis

Effectus. Sex sunt effectus, qui possunt Sacramentalibus atribui: 1. bonus motus gratiae; 2. remissio peccatorum venialium; 3. remissio alicuius poenae temporalis; 4. daemonis expulsio, vel cohibitio, ne noceat; 5. aliquod commodum temproale; 6. deputatio ad cultum divinum. Non omnia et singula Sacramentalia conferunt omnes illus effectus; quia non omnia ad eosdem fines sunt instituta; quod colligendum est ex singulorum institutione, et modo quo conficiuntur.

There are six effects, that may be attributed to Sacramentals. 1. Stirring of good grace; 2. remission of venial sin; 3. remission of whatever temporal punishment (due the venial sin?); 4. the expulsion of demons, without restriction or harm; 5. some temporal benefit; 6. appointment to the divine cult. (consecration to sacred use)

Not each and every Sacramental confer all these effects; because they are not each instituted for these purposes; but each (purpose) is gathered from what each is instituted for, and the mode by which it is destroyed.

- Aertnys, Josef and Damen, C. A. Theologia Moralis: Secundum Doctrinam Sancti Alfonsi de Ligorio Doctor Ecclesiae, vol. 2. (Marietti, 1950), 34.

This is a Moral Theology work in the tradition of Alphonsus which gives a nice breakdown of the "spiritual effects" obtained by sacramentals. It makes reference to distinction between effects based on for what each one is instituted for - "the church gets what she wants".
