Charge Of The Goddess
Whenever yea have need of
anything once a month and better it be when the
moon is full then shall yea assemble in some secret place and adore the
spirit
of Me Who am Queen of all Witches. Then shall yea assemble yea who
are fain to
learn all sorcery, yet had not won its deepest secrets to these I will
teach things
that are yet unknown.
And yea shall be free from slavery, and as a sign that yea be really free
you shall
be naked in your rights, and yea shall dance, sing, feast, make music and
love all
in my praise. For mine is the ecstasy of the spirit and mine also is the
joy of the
Earth. For my law is love unto all beings.
Keep pure your highest ideal, strive ever towards it, let naught stop you
or
turn you aside, for mine is the secret door that opens upon the land of
youth
and mine is the cup of the holy grail of immortality. I am the gracious
Goddess who gives the gift of joy unto all hearts.
Upon Earth I give the knowledge of the eternal spirit, and beyond death
I give
peace and freedom and reunion with those that have gone before. Nor do
I
demand aught of sacrifice, for behold I am the Mother of all things and
My
love is poured out upon the Earth.
Hear yea the words of the Star Goddess she in the dust of Whose feet are
the
hosts of Heaven, whose body encircles the Universe!
