The 5-Fold Kiss

The Five-fold Kiss is one of the most basic ritual forms, as well as one of the most meaningful. Consider the attitude one must have toward another to offer this salute. This is the state of a Witch.

For heterosexual Witches, the kiss is given man to woman or woman to man. The one giving the Kiss kneels before the other person and kisses the each of the points after saying the associated line: the left and right feet, the left and right knees, the area just above the pubic hair, the left and right breasts just above the nipples, and finally the lips. The form as it is given man to woman is:

Blessed be thy feet, which have brought thee in these ways.
Blessed be thy knees, which kneel upon the sacred Earth.
Blessed be thy womb, without which we would not be.
Blessed be thy breasts, formed in beauty and in strength.
Blessed be thy lips, which call the ancient names.
