Witches Rune

Darksome night and shimmering moon
Harken to the Witches Rune
East then South,
West then North
Here come I to call thee forth

By all the powers of land and sea
Be obedient unto me.
Wand and pentacle, cup and sword
Harken ye unto my word
Cords and censor, scourge and knife
Waken all ye into life
Powers of the witches blade
Come ye as the charge is made.

Queen of heaven, field and dell
Send your aid unto this spell.
Horned hunter of the night
Work my will by magick rite.

By all the might of moon and sun
As I do will, it shall be done
By all the powers of land and sea
As I say, so mote it be.

There comes a time in every witches life, when we must decide for ourselves which path is right for us.  We can continue to learn in or out of a coven.  It's not a neccesity for one to remain in a coven to learn.  That is for certain.  One must learn on their own what feels right, what agrees with what they know inside themselves.  We were put her on this earth with many different tools; tools do bring forth what we desire, tools to bane away what we do not want.  These tools can be found in a plant, a stone, a stream, a meadow, anywhere in nature and everything of nature, these are our tools.  The greatest tool we have is our mind.  When we cease to analyze and scrutinize what we are told as truths, we cease to learn  When we cease to learn, we begin to die. 
 
    "Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe simply because it has been handed down for many generations. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is written in Holy Scriptures. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of Teachers, elders or wise men. Believe only after careful observation and analysis, when you find that it agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all. Then accept it and live up to it."

I am a solitaire.  I may meet with other witches along the way to celibrate high holidays, to join forces for a common goal, or to even compare notes but, I will always be a solitaire.  That is my choice.  I want to learn and grow as an individual by practice, trial, and with as little errors as possible.  I am not ready to accept the karma of others openly.  I have worked long and hard to make my karmic debt as low as possible.  There are things I will be held accountable for in this world but, when I reach the Summerland, my debt will be paid.   In time I will return.  I will have new lessons to learn.  We do not cease to exist when we die, our essence continues on until we have gained enough knowledge to move on.  When I move on,
I will join with the Godforce.  That pure energy we mythologize, that energy that we pray to, give thanks to and disagree on over and over again, welcomes us all in our time.  There is only one way to advance in the Summerland.  That is by our deeds in the lives we have lived.  Though we all are the same, without form, the energy we create in ourselves, here and now, remains with us after we leave.  Religeous or not, we all know what is right and wrong.  When we ignore the basic principles that we are given, we deny ourselves knowledge, the very escence of existance.  Our paths may never cross beyond this site, we may never have the chance to share words, you and I may not even know the same words but, know you this we will share the same energy one day.  If you read my words and never read again, take away one thing,

               Peace and Tranquility. 
                     Love and Joy.
         No Remorse and No Regrets.
