The Wiccan Rede
Bide the Wiccan Laws ye must In perfect love and perfect trust Live and let live Fairly take and fairly give Cast the circle thrice about To keep the evil spirits out To bind a spell everytime Let the spell be spoke in rhyme Soft of eye and light to touch Speak little listen much Deosile go by the waxing moon Chanting out the witches rune Widdershins go by the waxing moon chanting out the baneful rune When the Lady's moon is new Kiss her Her hand , times two When the moon rides at her peak Then your hearts desire seek Heed the North Winds mighty gale Lock the doors and drop the sail When the wind comes from the south Love will kiss thee on the mouth When the wind blows from the West Departed souls will have no rest When the wind blows from the East Expect the new and set the feast Nine woods in the cauldron go burn them fast and let them slow Elder be the Lady's tree Burn it not or cursed you'll be When the wheel has turned to Yule Light the log and the Horned one rules Heed ye flowers, Bush and Tree By the Lady blessed be When ye have a true need Harken not to others greed With a fool no season spend Lest ye be counted as his friend Merry meet and Merry Part Bright the cheeks and warm the heart Mind the threefold Law you should Three times bad and three times good When misfortune is enow, wear the blue star on thy brow True in Love ever be Lest the lovers false to thee Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill "An ya harm none, do as ye wilt." |
