We all come from the horned one
And to him we shall return
Like a spark of fire
Rising to the heavens
~Evening Chant to the God~
Hail fair sun, Ruler of the day;
Rise on the morn, to light my
way.
~Hoof and Horn~
Hoof and horn, hoof and horn,
all that dies shall be reborn
Corn and grain corn and grain,
all that falls shall rise again!
Waxing, waxing, Growing, growing-
Diana's power is flowing,
flowing.
~Evening Chant to the Goddess~
Hail fair moon, Ruler of the night;
Gaurd me and mine, until the light.
~We All Come from the Goddess~
We all come from the goddess
And to her we shall return
Like a drop of rain
Flowing to the ocean.
~Ancient Mother~
Ancient Mother, I hear you calling
Ancient Mother, I hear your song
Ancient Mother, I hear you laughter
Ancient Mother, I taste your tears.
She's Been Waiting
(chorus)
She's been waiting, waiting
She's been waiting so long
She's been waiting for her children
to
remember, to return.
(verse)
Blessed be and blessed are the lovers of
the lady.
Blessed be and blessed are the
Maidens,
Mothers, Crones.
Blessed be and blessed are the ones who
stand together.
Blessed be and blessed are the ones who
stand alone.
(repeat chorus)
~Opening/Closing Circle~
Earth Site
Earth site
Witch's rite
Merry meet
In joy tonight!
Sacred ground,
Newly bound.
Witness to
The power found!
Merry Meet, Merry Part
May the circle be open
But never broken
May the peace of the Goddess be ever in
your heart
Merry Meet
And Merry Part
And Merry Meet again.
~Power Raising Chants~
We are the children of the night,
Gentle are we-yet feel our might.
Singing, dancing, chanting low.
Power building...let it go!
Round and round this Esbat site;
Power build to work our rite.
Brother and sister, together we
sing.
Directing the forces that our wills
bring.
We are the spokes of the mighty
wheel;
This power we raise that all might
feel.
Deosil circle round about;
Building the power, let it go with a
shout!
~Protective Chant~
(while chanting, visualize a triple
purple circle around you)
I am protected by your might,
O gracious goddess, day and night.
Take the Old (a banishing chant)
Take the old and burn it,
Burn it let it go.
Fire starts within our hearts
And gives us room to grow.
I hope you enjoyed this page.
Many of these chants came from
Buckland's Complete Book of Witchcraft,
and Cunningham's Wicca: A Guide for the
Solitary Practitioner. Others were heard
from the general community, or
at gatherings.
