Blessings and Dedications


~Book of Shadow Blessing~

Hearken as the witches word, calls the all, a gulf to ford,
Bridge the vast realities, an it harm none do as you please.
Elements protect & guard this book from wandering eyes & prying look
And fill it with thine ancient power, in this right & ready hour.

Powers of North, the Earth below, help me to live, to learn, to grow.
Lend your strength & stability, to practice the craft & love be free.
Powers of the East, the wind, the sky, watch over these pages with thine eyes.
Your wisdom & knowledge for these I do ask, that this book be worthy of the craft & it's task.

Powers of South, Fire & hearth, help these shadows prove their worth;
infuse them with your healing & passion, so only good comes the work that is fashioned.
Powers of West, the Water, the Sea, change & growth are granted thee.
Bless these pages with all you know, that righteous readers may learn & may grow.

And to the untrained eye let see, confusing words & sophistry.
Lead them from these sacred pages & bless their passage through the ages.
For freewill of all, & harm to none
As I have willed it shall be done.

So mote it be!



~Book Blessing~
By the One Power over all,
By Diana, Hecate, Selene, Kernunnos, and Pan,
Working for and through this Book of Shadows,
This book only reaches those for whom it is intended,
This work cannot be misused;
And for those who use it rightly,
For the good of all,
And according to free will,
May all the positive magick of the universe
Bring joy and power for good
That cannot be measured.
And So Mote It Be.


~Book of Shadows Blessing (by Taliana WolfSpirit, Feb. 2001) ~
Mother Goddess, Father God,
Elements of the North, South, East and West,
I ask you to bless this Book of Shadows.

May it be used only for good,
And may the knowledge within be positive and enriching.
May the magick never be used to harm, but only to help and protect.

Keep this Book of Shadows safe from those who would use the knowledge for negative purposes,
And help me to know, to dare and to be silent.

As more knowledge fills the empty pages,
May my heart and spirit also be filled,
My spiritual self growing and changing.

Mother Goddess, Father God,
Earth, Air, Fire and Water,
Bless this Book of Shadows.

As I will it, so mote it be!


Broom Blessing
I bless this broom with the spirit of Earth
Of rocks and trees, of comfort and security
sprinkle salt on your broom

I bless this broom with the spirit of Air
Of bells and feathers, of spirit and mind
blow your breath across the broom

I bless this broom with the spirit of Fire
of spice and lame, of courage and energy
touch the broom (handle side) to the candle flame

I bless this broom with the spirit of Water
of pearls and shell, of emotion and cleansing
Sprinkle your broom with water





I hearby freely confess my crimes.
No devil will prevent me, for the followers of the Craft have never believed in such a being, however loudly our enemies may insist otherwise. NOr do my crimes bear much resemblance to those described in the lurid pages of the Witches' Hammer. I have changed no man into beasts's shape. I have stolen no one's wits. I have conjured no tempests, nor have I copulated with an incubus or drunk the blood of any newborn child.
My crimes are of a different nature. Of them, I already stand convicted in the only court of consequence: that of my own heart.
Judge me as thou will.



I have some dedications somewhere, I will post soon.
