Rhyming Charge of the Goddess
I am the harmonious tune of the songbird
And the Laughter of a gleeful child.
I am the bubbling sound of the running brook
And the scent of the flowers wild.
I am the floating leaf upon the breeze
And the dancing fire in the forest glade.
I am the sweet smell of rains upon the soil
And the rapture of passion when love is made.
I am the germination of seen in the spring
And the ripening of wheat in the Sun.
I am the peaceful depth of the twilight
That soothes the soul when day is done.
I am found in the twinkling of an aged eye...
And found in the birth of a newborn pup...
Yes... Birth and Growth and Death, am I
I am the gracious Earth, on whom you sup.
I am your Sister, your Mother, the Wise One.
I wrap you gently in the warmth of my love.
That which you seek you shall find within:
Not without...not below...not above!
Remember always, my children, be reverent
Be gentle, loving, and kind to each other
And hold sacred the Earth and its creatures
For I am the Lady, Creatrix, and Mother!

THE MOON/GODDESS CONNECTION
Because its enery is feminine in quality, the Goddess is often symbolized by the phases of the Moon. Each phase vibrates differently and corresponds to a spacific Goddess personality, as well as to a variety of magical purposes. these are outlined below for you convenience.
Waxing Moon(Light Maiden):When the Moon grows from dark to full, we use its energies for anything that requires increase, growth, or enhancement. It's a good time to work efforst ivolving fresh starts, inspiration, new love, friendships, business-building, and financial prosperity. It also provides suitable conditions for healing, increasingphysical stamina, developing psychism, and garden planting.
Full Moon(Mother):The Moon's energy is at its most potent when it reaches this stage. And while we can use it to boost any effort, it's of real benefit to complicated workings or difficult situations.
Waining Moon(Dark Maiden):When the Moon shrinks from full to dark, we use its vibration for anything that requires shrinkage or elimination. This energy works well for efforts that involve dieting, breaking bad habits, obliterating stress or depression, or the elimination of dysfunctional relationship patterns.
Dark Moon(Crone):Some practitioners use this phase to rest, regenerate, and regroup. Be that as it may, others use its energies for psychic work, divination, and delving into past life memories, as well as matters where getting to the truth of the matter is at issue.
