AN INVOCATION TO THE GODDESS
When I shall have departed from this world,
Whenever ye have need of anything,
Once in the month, and when the moon is full,
Ye shall assemble in some desert place,
Or in a forest all together join
To adore the potent spirit of your queen,
My mother, great Diana. She who fain
Would learn all sorcery yet has not won
Its deepest secrets, them my mother will
Teach her,in truth all things as yet unknown.
And ye shall be free from slavery,
And so ye shall be free in everything;
And as the sign that you are truly free,
You shall be sky clad in your rites, both men
And women also:this shall last until
The last of your oppressors shall be dead;
And ye shall make the game of Benevento,
Extinguishing the lights, and after that
Shall hold your supper thus; meal and salt and
honey and water.
From Aradia,Gospel of the Witches, written in the late 1800's by Charles Leland
All life on Earth participates in the dance of Moon and Sun. And we , engendered in the Oceans, feel in our blood, the pull of our moon upon the tides.
We are sunlight transformed by trees into fruit and plasm, and we are so intimately of the Earth, that our collective dream is paradise.
Thus, we are moved to celebrate the ceaseless play of the seasons and to ensoul ourselves landscape and heavens.
Our entire existence is of reverence. Our rituals renew the sacred harmony within us. Our every act; eating, sleeping, breathing, making love, is a ceremony reaffirming our dependence on Mother Earth, and our kinship with her every child.
We recognize the spiritual and the physical as one.
God and Nature, nature and mankind, we are close and intimate and warm with Mother Earth and the Great Spirit.
Being of our Sacred Mother Earth, we are also sacred.

Lord and Lady, take heed of this, your child.
I do stand humbled before you. Long have I searched for that which I desire. To truly know your ways as my own.
I have loved the forests and the fields, and know that the water of the streams, is inseperable from the life that flows through out me.
When the sun has set, and the moon is dark, help me to know your presence in the blackened skies. Help me to remember the spark of life is ever present, reflected in the stars of night.
Let me see the thread of life and love, that runs through all things.
Love is the highest law of nature and the light that draws me ever closer to you. May I give worship most high, for I am of thee, and thee, of me.
Let me know your ways in all things, and find the light of wisdom in all ways.
For though the path of man is many, all are searching for the return to Spirit. And so I dedicate myself to you, now and always.
