I think we should add this as well :
The Charge of The Goddess
by Doreen Valiente


Listen to the words of the Great Mother;
she who of old was also called among men
Artemis, Astarte, Athene, Dione, Melusine,
Aphrodite, Cerridwen, Cybele, Arianrhod,
Isis, Dana, Bride
and by many other names:

Whenever ye have need of anything,
once in the month, and better it be when the moon is full,
then shall ye assemble in some secret place
and adore the spirit of me,
who am Queen of all the witches.

There shall ye assemble,
ye who are fain to learn all sorcery,
yet have not won its deepest secrets;
to these will I teach things that are yet unknown.
And ye shall be free from slavery;
and as a sign that ye be really free,
ye shall be naked in your rites;
and ye shall dance, sing, feast,
make music and love,
all in my praise.
For mine is the ecstasy of the spirit,
and mine also is joy on earth;
for my law is love unto all beings.
Keep pure your highest ideal;
strive ever towards it;
let naught stop you or turn you aside.
For mine is the secret door
which opens upon the Land of Youth,
and mine is the cup of the wine of life,
and the Cauldron of Cerridwen,
which is the Holy Grail of immortality.

I am the Gracious Goddess,
who gives the gift of joy unto the heart of man.
Upon earth, I give the knowledge of the spirit eternal;
and beyond death, I give peace and freedom
and reunion with those who have gone before.
Nor do I demand aught in sacrifice;
for behold,
I am the Mother of all living,
and my love is poured out upon the earth.

Hear ye the words of the Star Goddess;
she in the dust of whose feet are the hosts of heaven,
and whose body encircles the Universe.
I who am the beauty of the green earth,
and the white Moon among the stars,
and the mystery of the waters,
and the desire of the heart of man,
call unto thy soul.
Arise, and come unto me.
For I am the soul of nature, who gives life to the universe.
From me all things proceed,
and unto me all things must return;
and before my face, beloved of Gods and of men,
let thine innermost divine self be enfolded in the rapture of the infinite.
Let my worship be within the heart that rejoiceth;
for behold,
all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals.
And therefore let there be beauty and strength,
power and compassion, honour and humility,
mirth and reverence within you.

And thou who thinkest to seek for me,
know thy seeking and yearning shall avail thee not
unless thou knowest the mystery;
that if that which thou seekest
thee findest not within thee,
thou wilt never find it without thee.
For behold,
I have been with thee from the beginning;
and I am that which is attained
at the end of desire.

The Wiccan Rede
By Lady Gwen Thompson

Being known as the counsel of the Wise Ones:
Bide the Wiccan laws ye must,
in perfect love and perfect trust.
Live and let live, fairly take and fairly give.
Cast the Circle thrice about
to keep the evil spirits out.

To bind the spell every time,
let the spell be spake in rhyme.
Soft of eye and light of touch,
speak little, listen much.
Deosil go by the waxing Moon,
sing and dance the Wiccan rune.
Widdershins go when the moon doth wane,
and the Werewolf howls by the dread Wolfsbane.

When the Lady's Moon is new,
kiss thy hand to Her times two.
When the Moon rides at Her peak
then your heart's desire seek.
Heed the Northwind's mighty gale;
lock the door and drop the sail.

When the wind comes from the South,
love will kiss thee on the mouth.
When the wind blows from the East,
expect the new and set the feast.
When the West wind blows o'er thee,
departed spirits restless be.

Nine woods in the Cauldron go,
burn them quick a' burn them slow.
Elder be ye Lady's tree;
burn it not or cursed ye'll be.
When the Wheel begins to turn,
let the Beltane fires burn.
When the Wheel has turned at Yule,
light the log and let Pan rule.

Heed ye flower bush and tree,
by the Lady Bless'd Be.
Where the rippling waters go
cast a stone and truth ye'll know.
When find that ye have need,
hearken not to others' greed.
With the fool no season spend
or be counted as his friend.

Merry meet and merry part,
bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Threefold Law ye should,
three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is enow,
wear the Blue Star on thy brow.
True in love ever be
unless thy lover's false to thee.
Eight words ye Wiccan Rede fulfill:
An' it harm none, do what ye will.

Charge of the God
By Raynelae Moon

Listen to the words of the god
Who was, in the old days called
Osiris, Lugh, Appollo, Zeus, Bel, and many more names

For I am a god of love and humbleness.
One who honours every aspect of life's pleasures.
I am a wild and free god.

I rule the world in winter,
When the Goddess gives birth to me.
In the summer,
I say farewell,
But know I am never truly dead.
For the Spirit,
Never dies.

Live in tune with me and call upon me whenever you need someone by your side.
I will protect you in your darkest moments.
I will gift you with blessings and abundance,
For I love my children.

I will never leave you,
For a piece of me is in your heart,
And has been since you were created.

See me in the forest,
And in the sun that provides you with life.

Though sometimes I may seem hidden,
I am always with you.

The only thing I ask of you
Is that you harm none.

Now live your life
And forever be
Blessed be.

Together Blessing
By Bluesongbird

God and Goddess all around
We do not worship two with a crown
We are loyal to all and above
That watches over us in heave and above

Bless this book with you magick and knowledge
This is our path way to your guidance
We all understand the laws of that land
Now give us a helping hand

We come from near and far
But our love is the same
No land or sea we are apart
We are together
And have you in our hearts

Don't mean to be rude or off topic but why is a new-born in the coven? It's like baptizing a baby, are you really sure of the effect's it'll have, argueably if any?

Also I find it odd theres only one older person.

Also on online when i googled the definition of coven, it says it's usually 13 witches, I assume that'd be true because of the lunar calendar and how obsessed with moons witches seem to be. No offense.

Well Ray isn't a new born.It was a typing mistake.He's as the same age as me.And our coven is more like a study group. As for the fact of 13 Witches, we are looking for others who might want to join us.
Hope my answer satisfies you.
Blessed Be!

Lol well said Ray :D

And I'm gonna add a spell to our BoS now.The spell is to make your family members see your points of view. I found it in a book called The Book of Shadows by Lady Silja. Hope it'll help us since we all need our parents to see our points of view :D


Brew some peppermint tea, add a spoonful of honey to each cup, and stir deosil ( clockwise) chanting :

" My family are difficult to take,
They are no piece of cake.
Please let them see,
How difficult it is for me ! "

Give the tea to your family.

Okie dokie.Take your time :D

Drawing Down the Moon Ritual

Posted: Thu Jan 05, 2012 9:13 pm
by raynelae
This ritual can be done before or after the Full Moon ritual, if it is of your tradition, cast a circle before the ritual.

Drawing Down the Moon Ritual
By me, but with inspiration from the Divine :)

1. Open your arms wide open above your head and say,
"I am the Goddess known as Hecate, the Lady, Mother Kalli, Bast, and the Triple Goddess.

2. Hold your arms above your head in a circle; feeling the Moon and the Great Mother enter inside of you and say,
"Honour Me from within your heart and call upon Me whenever needed, for I am around you wherever you go. Never forget that love is My ritual and may My love forever be within you, every step of your life."

3. Hold your palms to the sky and say,
"I am the spark of life; the ocean by the shore. I am in every breath you take and every step you walk. I am the rustle in the leaves. The frozen ice in winter. I am with you--that I ask, you'll never forget. May there be love and peace within your heart. So blessed be."

4. Continue on as long as you will. Then kiss your hands in honour of the Goddess.



Drawing Down the Moon, is when you open your heart, allowing the Goddess to come inside of you. While doing this ritual, you may feel emotional.
