Dark moon Charge (Charge of
the Dark God)
This charge should be read on the eve of no moon (New moon)in reverence
to the dark aspect of the God.
Listen to the words of the Dark God who was of
old called Iahchos, Donn, Anubis, Hades, Betesh, hoder, & by many
other names...
I am the shadow in the bright day. I am the reminder of Mortality
at the height of living. I am the never ending veil of night where
the star goddess Dances. I am the death that must be so that life
may continue for behold life is immortal because the living must die.
I am the strength that protects, that limits. I am the power that
says no, no further, and that be enough. I am the things that cannot
be spoken of and I am the laughter at the edge of death.
Come with me into the warm enfolding dark; feel my caresses in the
hands, in the mouth, in the body of the one you love and be transformed.
Gather in the moonless night and speak in unknown tongues. The dark
mother and I will listen. Sing to us and cry out and the power will
be yours to yield.
Blow me a kiss when the sky is dark and I will smile but no kiss will
I return, for my kiss is the final one for all mortal flesh.
