Bide ye Wiccan laws you must,
In perfect love and perfect trust
Live ye must and let to live,
Fairly take and fairly give

Tread the circle thrice about
To keep unwelcome spiritis out
To bind ye spell well every time,
Let the spell be spoke in rhyme

Light of eye and soft of touch,
Speak ye little, listen much
Honor the Old Ones in deed and name,
Let love and light be our guides again

Deosil go by the waxing moon,
Sing and dance ye Wiccan Rune
Widdershins go when the moon doth wane,
And the werewolf howls by the dread wolfsbane

When ye Lady's moon is new,
Kiss ye hand to her times two.
When ye moon rides at her peak,
Then ye heart's desire seek

Heed the north winds mighty gale,
Lock the door and trim the sail
When the wind blows from the East,
Expect the new and set the feast

When the wind comes from the South,
Love will kiss thee on the mouth
When the West wind blows over thee,
Departed souls will restless be

Nine woods 'neath the Cauldron go,
Burn them fast and burn them slow
Birch into the fire goes
To represent what the Lady knows

Oak in the forest towers with might,
In the fire it brings the God's insight
Rowan is a tree of power,
Causing life and magick to flower

Willows at the waterside stand,
Ready to help us to the Summerland
Hawthorn is burned to purify,
And to draw faerie to thine eye

Hazel, the tree of wisdom and learning
Adds its strength to the bright fire burning
White are the flowers of Apple tree
That brings us fruits of fertility

Grapes grow upon the vine,
Giving us both joy and wine
Fir does mark the evergreen
To represent immortality seen

Elder is the Lady's tree;
Harm it not or cursed ye'll be
Four times the Major Sabbats mark,
Both in the light and in the dark

As the old year starts to wane,
The new begins - it's now Samhain
When the times for Imbolc shows,
Watch for flowers through the snows

When the wheel begins to turn,
Seen ye Beltane fires will burn
As the wheel turns to Lammas night,
Power is brought to magick rite

Four times the Minor Sabbats fall;
Use the Sun to mark them all
When the wheel hath turned a Yule,
Light the log the Horned One rules

In the spring, when night equals day,
'Tis time for Ostara to come our way.
When the Sun has reached its height,
'Tis time for Oak and Holly to fight

Harvesting comes to one and all
When the Autumn Equinox does fall
Heed the flower, bush and tree,
By the Lady blessed ye'll be

Where the rippling waters go,
Cast a stone, the truth ye'll know
When ye have and hold a need,
Harken not to others greed.

With a fool no season spend,
Or be counted as his friend
Merry meet and merr part
Birght the cheeks and warm the heart

Whe misfortune is enow,
Wear the star upon thy brow
True in love ye must ever be;
Lest thy love be false to thee

Mind ye threefold law ye should,
Three times bad and three times good
What ye send forth comes back to ye,
So ever mind the rule of three

These eight words the wiccan rede fulfil;
An harm ye none, do what ye will
Follow this with mind and heart
And merry ye meet, and merry ye part

  • The language helps you get into a different frame of mind than the mundane... also, it's prettier. It's like Latin for the Catholic Church.

  • I'm thinking of becoming a wiccan.

  • @1955JAFO there are evil spirets...they just dont belive in satan, cause he's a biblical thing.

  • @heya909 no it means that if you want to have love you have to be honest and true to the person you love unless they decide to be untrue and then you have to let them go cause it isn't worth it

  • i wish i could have that as a poster in my room to remeber. the book im reading by Amber K talks very simlarily to this chant. very helpful thankyou for posting. blessed be

  • this reminds me of my favorite videogame: oblivion. no offense of course. just saying.

  • @heya909 its part of of reaping what you sow. i have come to think if you are not true, then you will experience those who are untrue.
