Charge of the Goddess

Iisten to the words of the Great Mother,who was of old also called among men Artimis Astarte Diane: Melusine Aphrodite Cerridwen Dana Arianrhod Bride. and by many other names.

At mine altars the youth of Lacedemon in Sparta made due sacrfice. Whenever ye have need of anything, once in the month,and better be it when the moon is full,then ye shall assemble in some secret place and adore the spirit of me who is queen of all witchery.

there shall ye assemble ye who are fain to learn all sorcery,Yet have not won it's deepest secrets:to these will I teah things that are yet unknown.

And ye shall be free from slavery. And as a sign that ye be really free,ye shall be naked in your rites.And ye shall dance;sing;feast;make music,and love,all in my praise.

For mine is the ecstacy of the spirit: and mine also is joy on earth for MY law is love, unto all beings.

Keep pureyour highest idea,strive ever toward it.Let naught stop you or turn you aside.

For mine is the secret door which opens upon the door of youth. And mine is the cup of the wine of life; and the cauldron of Cerridwen, which is the holy grail of immortality. I am the gracious goddess who gives the gift of joy unto the heart of man Upon earth I give the knowledge of the spirit eternal: And beyond death I give peace and freedom: and reunion with those who have gone before: nor do I demand sacrifice: for behold, I am the Mother of all living: and my love is poured out upon the earth. Hear ye the words of the Star Goddess: She in the dust of whose feet are the hosts of heaven, whose body encircleth the universe. Iwho am the beauty of the green earth: and the white moon amongst the stars: and the mystery of the waters: and the desire of the heart of man call unto thy soul; arise and come unto me. For I am the soul of nature who giveth life to the universe;from me all things proceed; and unto me all things must return;and before my face, beloved of gods and men, thine inmost divine self shall be enfolded in the rapture of the infinite. Let my worship be within the heart that rejoiceth: for behold: all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals: and therefore let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honor and humility, mirth and reverence within you.And thou who thinkest to seek for me: Know thy seeking and yearning shall avail thee not, unless thou know the mystery;that if that which thou seekest thou findest not within thee,thou wilt never find it without thee: For behold-. I have been with thee from the beginning: and I am that which is attained at the end of desire.
