Rede Of The Wiccae
Being known as the counsel of the Wise Ones:
Bide the Wiccan Laws ye must In Perfect Love & Perfect Trust.
Live anâ let live - Fairly take anâ fairly give.
Cast the Circle thrice about To keep all evil spirits out.
To bind the spell every time - Let the spell be spake in rhyme.
Soft of eye anâ light of touch - Speak little, listen much.
Deosil go by the waxing Moon - Sing & dance the Wiccan rune.
Widdershins go when the Moon doth wane, Anâ the Werewolf howls by the dread Wolfsbane.
When the Ladyâs Moon is new, Kiss thy hand to Her times two.
When the Moon rides at Her peak Then your heartâs desire seek.
Heed the Northwindâs mighty gale - Lock the door & drop the sail.
When the wind comes from the South, Love will kiss thee on the mouth.
When the wind blows from the East, Expect the new & set the feast.
When the West wind blows oâer thee, Departed spirits restless be.
Nine woods in the Cauldron go - Burn them quick anâ burn them slow.
Elder be ye Ladyâs tree - Burn it not or cursed yeâll be.
When the Wheel begins to turn - Let the Beltane fires burn.
When the Wheel has turned a Yule, Light the Log anâ let Pan rule.
Heed ye flower bush anâ tree - By the Lady Blessèd Be.
Where the rippling waters go Cast a stone anâ truth yeâll know.
When ye have need, Hearken not to others greed.
With the fool no season spend Or be counted as his friend.
Merry meet anâ merry part - Bright the cheeks anâ warm the heart.
Mind the Threefold Law ye should - Three times bad anâ three times good.
When misfortune is enow, Wear the Blue Star on thy brow.
True in love ever be Unless thy loverâs false to thee.
Eight words ye Wiccan Rede fulfill - Anâ it harm none, Do what ye will.
