Goddess shinning bright above
Shield me from all harm
May all I encounter be of love
And those that aren't be disarmed.
So mote it be.

Lady of the Moon,
Lord of the Sun,
Protect me and mine,
Now day is done.

I pray to thee,
O Goddess Aphrodite,
Make my love for ____
Strong and true.
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.
Valerie (as found in The Spiral Dance)
Kouros seedsower, Kore underground
Leaflight, bloodroot, grain reborn
Turning the Wheel we keep you in mind,
Lovelight, spermshine, flower & thorn.
Spinning the Web we call you forth,
Turning the Wheel with ageless love.
Earth Her body, Air Her breath,
Fire Her spirit, Water Her flow,
Transformed in the halls of Death,
Life on life we come and go.
Spinning the Web we call you forth,
Turning the Wheel with ageless love.
Kouros Horned One, Kore above,
Stralight, heart's joy, ancient mirth
Spinning the Web we call you forth,
Turning the Wheel with ageless love.
Fire Faerie
Fire blaze into the night
Glory rise in your smoke
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 tidal waves
Create life with rain
Elements protect me
Nurture me as well
Teach me how to live
And guide me to love
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.

Elements protect this book
From wondering eyes and prying look,
And fill it with Thine ancient power
In this right and ready hour.

Visualize a triple circle of white light around your body while chanting:
I am protected by your might
O gracious Goddess,
Day and night.
-or-
Thrice around the circle's bound.
Evil sink into the ground.

Great Goddess hear my plea,
Grant the wish I chant to Thee:
Bring clouds both large and gray,
Send pouring and gentle rains my way.
Spare me from the wrathful sun.
As I will it, so let it be done!
Autumn Raindancer
I call the light,
Of golden rays,
To seek protection,
Thus I pray,
Heavenly forces at my side,
Angles, Sages, Spirit Guides,
Or wolves walk with cunning skill,
Come to my aid,
Come at my will,
Black bird soaring light my path,
So I am victim to no one's wrath,
And when my journey knows success,
All those who aid me,
Goddess Bless!
Oak Wren
Earth who gives to us our food,
Sun who makes it ripe and good,
Dearest earth and dearest sun,
Joy and Love for all you've done.
Tanney
Bright light, White light
Take away my fright
Don't let the darkness scare me,
There's nothing here to fear.
Let me sleep the whole night long,
For I am safe in here.
White Light, Bright Light
Protect me through the night.
This should be done cupping hands as if holding a ball of white light. Toss ball in air and imagine it bursting to fill the whole room with protection.
Diane Mariechild
Let me sink deep within the source of creativity
Deep within my originality
Let me connect with all that is divine in me
My power to imagine, to create anew
Let me surrender now to the sea of my greater consciousness.

I summon the Goddess far and wide,
'Of true beauty,' I have cried.
To lend a face prettier than all,
Shall make me brave and stand tall.

We have so much before us
and for this we are thankful.
We have so many blessings,
and for this we are thankful.
There are others not so fortunate,
and by this we are humbled.
We shall make an offering in their name
to the gods who watch over us,
that those in need are someday
as blessed as we are this day.

Tonight is the night of the full moon
The night of Selene--wise and knowing
Tonight we connect with her power and it is ours.
Tonight we vibrate with the pulse of the moon
Knowing, sensing and feeling our connections
We flow in many dimensions.
Our eyes are opened and we see with clarity our visions
Our ears are opened and we hear the voices of our souls
Our mouths are opened and we speak with wisdom
Our hearts are opened and we are filled with love
Our wombs are opened and we are in touch with the source of our creativity
Our feet are opened and we walk on our own true path
Our hands are opened and our power is manifest.
