Abide the Wiccan laws ye must,
In perfect love and perfect trust.
Live ye must, and let to live,
Fairly take, and fairly give.
Soft of eye, and light of touch,
Speak ye little, listen much.
When misfortune is enow,
Wear the blue star on your brow.
To keep unwelcome spirits out.
To bind the spell well every time,
Let the spell be spake in rhyme.
Deosil go by the waxing moon,
Chanting out the witches’ rune
Widdershins go by the waning moon,
Chanting out the baneful tune.
When the Lady’s moon is new,
Kiss the hand to her times two.
When the moon rides at her peak,
Then your heart’s desire seek.
Heed the North wind’s mighty gale,
Lock the door and trim the sail.
When the wind comes from the south,
Love will kiss thee on the mouth.
When the wind blows from the west,
Departed souls may have no rest.
When the wind blows from the east,
Expect the new, and set the feast.
Nine woods in the cauldron go,
Burn them fast, or burn them slow.
Elder is the Lady’s tree,
Burn it not, or cursed ye’ll be
When the wheel begins to turn,
Let the Beltane fires burn.
When the wheel has turned a Yule,
Light the log, the Horned one rules.
Heed ye flower, bush and tree,
By the Lady blessed be.
Where the rippling waters flow,
Cast a stone and 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 merry part,
Bright the cheeks, and warm the heart
Mind the threefold law ye should,
Three times bad, and three times good
True in love ye must surely be,
Lest thy love be false to thee
Eight words the Wiccan rede fulfill,
“An it harm none, do what ye will”
