Bedtime Prayer
Ceisiwr Serith
Sleep, little one, in the comforting night
that spreads like a blanket over your bed.
The Goddess is waiting to guide you to sleep
in her arms that are ready to rock you so gently.
The God stands by, watching to keep you from harm,
to lay his cool hand on your head as you sleep.
Sleep, little one, in the gathering dark,
wrapped in the love of your Mother and Father,
wrapped in the love of your mother and father.
Brigid's Healing Well Spell
(By: Elizabeth Paul)
Waters of the Sacred Well,
Make our bodies whole and hale.
Pour Brigid's blessings out to me,
By Her waters healed I'll be!
Child's Prayer

Silver lady of the moon,
Lord of the golden sun,

Now that the day is done.
Blessed Be!

I pray to thee,
O Goddess Aphrodite,
Make my love for ____
Strong and true.
Untitled
Fire Faerie
Fire, earth, water, and air
Lead me down a path of love
Spirit show me how to fly
Lead me down a path of trust.
Untitled
Fire Faerie
Fire blaze into the night
Glory rise in your somke
Following the windy gales
Forced to leap skyward
Air blow in mighty gusts
Weaving paths within...
The trees of the forest
And the lowest valleys
Earth shift your weight
Move with great strength
From you living things will sprout
And grow forth in the rain
Water spill out of the ocean
Lap gently on the shore
Crush life with tidalwaves
Creat life with rain
Elements protect me
Nurture me as well
Teach me how to live
And guide me to love
Samhain
Evylyn Rose
Come join in a rite with me
In honor of the passing of our Lord.
Of the Goddess, He was born,
And from Her love, He grew.
As Their powers waxed, They joined.
Together They created all the life we have.
But now our Lady weeps
As Her lover begins to sleep.
Come join in a rite with me
In honor of the passing of our Lord.
Shed a tear to show your love,
But do not worry, stay filled with joy.
For even though he has passed away this night,
He will join us in our Yule rite.
Come join in a rite with me
In honor of the passing of our Lord.

Great Goddess hear my plea,
Grant the wish I chant to Thee:

Site Blessing (Adapted Book Blessing)
unknown
Hearken as the Witch's word
Calls the Lady and the Lord
Moon above and earth below
Sky's cool blue and sun's hot glow,
In this right and ready hour,
Fill these pages with thy wisdom.
May those in need eye to see
The secrets which entrusted be.
To those who walk the hidden road
To find the hearthstone's calm abode.
Guardians from the four directions,
Hear us and lend Thy protection:
May these truths of Earth and Skies
Shielded be from darker times.
But to the witches whose map this be
May the way be plain to see;
And through all the coming ages,
May we find home in these pages.
