Rede of the Wiccae
(The Counsel of the Wise Ones)


Bide the Wiccan laws ye must in perfect love and perfect trust

Live and let live - fairly take an fairly give

Cast the Circle thrice about to keep all 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, an the Werewolf howls by the dred
Wolfsbane

When the Lady's Moon is new, kiss the 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 an 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 a Yule, light the Log an let Pan rule

Heed ye flower, bush an tree - by the Lady blessed be

Where the rippling waters go, cast a stone an truth ye'll know

When ye have need, hearken not to other's greed.

With the fool no season spend or be counted as his friend

Merry meet an merry part - bright the cheeks an warm the heart

Mind the Threefold Law ye should - three times bad an 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 the Wiccan Rede fulfill - an it harm none, do what ye will
