Witches' Pyramid

Mastering the four principles of the Witches' Pyramid is a good idea for any Witch. They are part of the foundation upon which all successful magic is based.

Natures Dancers by Father Witch

I dance this night upon a stage called earth.

Pondering the next step that I should take

In the many silent songs called life.

I must create my own dance

With the whispers of the winds

And the moon, as she cast her shadows

On my soul and silhouettes.

I can sing without words.

I can jump from star to star.

In the vastness of this dance without a song.

My spirit can truly sour,

As the silence brings forth sound.

Suddenly, music is all around.

I dance upon this stage

Until the performance is complete.

Unto this life I must accept defeat.

But, by listening to silence

And understanding life,

Death will only bring me to my feet.

I dance this night upon a stage called earth.

To a song that has no sound.

I can hear the melody.

I can see the audience of life around me.

So I shall dance until my soul is found.

My silhouettes shall spring to life

With the rising of the sun.

And they shall dance unto a different tune.

We are merely dancers in the performance of our lives.

Cast by the creator of all things.

And judged by the values that we bring-

To the dance.

Sabbat Oil

I wanted to let you know how to make Sabbat oil. Before attending Sabbat you should anoint yourself with Sabbat oil. This is one way to make oil. You need to obtain the following:
Wild parsley root
Celery root
Popular leaves (balm of Gilead)
Cinquefoil
Saffron
You should cut these up with your Athame’, but that is not always possible, so at least crush them up and steeped in purified vegetable oil during the waxing moon. Strain the oil through a cheesecloth and bottle. You can also steep the leaves in pure alcohol and later mix into the oil.

Purify Your Tools

The Spell:

Water and earth
Where you are cast
No spell nor adverse purpose last
Not in complete accord with me.
As my word, so mote it be!

The Wiccan Redes

The Wiccan Redes
Bide the Wiccan Redes ye must,
In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust;
Live ye must and let to live,
Fairly take and fairly give;
Form the Circle thrice about,
To keep unwelcome spirits out;
Bind fast the spell every time,
Let the words be spoke in rhyme.
Soft of eye and light of touch,
Speak ye little, listen much;
Deosil go by waxing moon,
Sing and dance the Witches' Rune;
Widdershins go by waning moon,
Chant ye then a baleful tune;
When the Lady's moon is new,
Kiss hand to her times two;
When the moon rides at peak,
Heart's desire then ye seek.
Heed the North wind's mighty gale,
Lock the door & trim the sail;
When the wind comes from the South,
Love will kiss them on the mouth;
When the wind blows from the West,
departed souls 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 quick, burn them slow;
Elder be the Lady's tree,
Burn it not or curs'd ye'll be;
When the wind begins to turn,
Soon Beltane fires will burn;
When the wheel has turned to Yule,
light the log, the Horned One rules.
Heed the flower, bush or tree
By the Lady blessed be'
