Witches

Celtic Woman

Witches

As the sun sets

The moon rises.

We are called.

Gathering deep in the forest

Our capes flap in the wind.

Hoods covering our head

As we form our circle

Hand in hand we take our places.

The elements are called forth:

Wind, rain, earth and fire.

We are filled with their energy.

In a low chant

We call for our Mother.

The Goddess answers our call,

She stands before us,

Center in our circle.

We lower our heads to her grace.

Our circle is filled with her love.

Energy flows from her to us.

Slowly we rise;

Our feet no longer touch the ground.

Wind rips through the trees.

Flames raise high from the fire.

Rain beats on the earth below

Yet, we remain dry.

Power transfers from Sister to Sister.

The Goddess’s influence is felt.

Sounds from the forest fill the air.

All is alive.

Energy fills all there,

We know who we are,

The Witches of the present.

Those long past have joined us.

We know our beginning.

We know our past.

We know our future,

Witches now and forever.

Oh, What A Glorious Morn’! Oh, What A Glorious Day! A Very Happy & Blessed Monday to All!

Lisa Lambe, Celtic Woman
You really ought to be glad you can’t hear me sing, lol! I can’t carry a tune in a bucket! Yes, that bad! I hope everyone had a get weekend. I know we were off for two days (well everyone else was except me) and you probably thought we were all on a mini-vacation. Hmm, what does that word, “vacation” mean? There are times it seems like I work 24 hours a day. I use to be accused of doing spells in my sleep, oh brother! But everyone else took the weekend off or rather I ran them off. And I am sure you can tell what I was doing all weekend. This site has gotten so big that if you do just the blog page, it takes a few hours. But if you re-do the entire site it takes at least two days. For a change I actually got everything done on this site ahead of schedule. I still have a few other sites to do on Blogger but they ain’t hurting.

I hope you like the new look. Nothing major changed. Everything is in its spot, just different graphics. Enjoy the new look and I am off to get to work….

Have a very Blessed Monday & a Super Fantastic Week,

Love ya,

Lady A
