Bide the Wiccan law ye must,
In perfect love, in perfect trust.
Eight words the Wiccan rede fulfill:
An ye harm none, do what ye will.
What ye send forth comes back to thee,
So ever mind the Rule of Three.
Follow this with mind and heart,
And merry ye meet, and merry ye part.
A Book of Shadows contains the spells, rituals, invocations, dreams, information and personal observations of a witch or group of witches. It is a personal document, written for and by its readers.
Often a Book of Shadows begins with a book blessing. This poem from Silver Ravenwolf's To Stir a Magick Cauldron reminds us of who we are and why we keep this book.
I will serve the Great Goddess
And give reverence to the Great God
I am a Pagan
A stone in the ancient circle
Standing firmly
Balanced on the earth
Yet open to the winds of heaven
And enduring through time
May the old gods witness my words
Blessed be.
We look foward to your additons to these pages
