Samhain Charge of the God


I am the dark ruler of the world that shed its skin of life

The Leaves that fall, the season that turns, stories remembered,
Traditions, the lessons of the wheel and all that has passed.


I am the taker of the old & the carrier of the seeds of tomorrow.


Let all who gather in the grove and the field,


Know and understand my worship in death,


For When you have remembered, mourned, and reflected on


What has passed, it is this lesson that takes you to a new morning.


There are no beginnings without endings,


No True Wisdom, without reflection.


As surely as the world dies,


So too, shall the Wicca die


But through my promise of spring, the land will come to be reborn,


And with the land of the Wicca, forever.
