This charge can be read during the full moon rite
if desired. It is the charge of the Goddess:
Listen to the words of the great Mother... Who
of old was called Artemis, Astarte, Demeter, Melusine, Aphrodite,
Cerridwen, Diana, and by many other names...
I am the beauty of the Green earth and the White moon. and the mysteries
of the waters. From me all things proceed and unto me all things must
return. Let my worship be in the heart that rejoices, for all acts
of love and pleasure are my rituals. Let there be beauty and strength,
power and compassion, mirth and reverence within you. And you who
seek to know me, know that your seeking and yearning will avail you
not unless you know the mystery: If that which you seek you find not
within you will never find it without. For Behold... I have been with
you from the beginning, and I am that which is attained at the edge
of desire.
