Wicca and the Celestial

Wiccans see the Divine as being a part of nature; in our belief system, celestial objects have certain sacred meanings and representations.

The Moon

"Wondrous lady of the Moon
You who greets the dusk with silvered kisses;
Mistress of the night and of all magics,
who rides the clouds in blackened skies
and spills light upon the cold Earth;
O Lunar Goddess,
Crescent-One,
Shadow maker and shadow breaker;
Revealer of mysteries past and present;
Puller of seas and ruler of women;
All-wise Lunar Mother,
I greet Your celestial jewel
at the waxing of its powers
With a rite in Your honor.
I pray by the Moon,
I pray by the Moon,
I pray by the Moon."
--Wiccan Prayer, by Scott Cunningham

"Paganism views the world as alive and sacred,
speaking to us through thought and sense and
emotion and intuition, listening to us when we speak to it in ritual.
When we celebrate its change and phases, it celebrates with us."
