10 Beautiful Rituals for Summer Solstice

Celebrate the first day of summer on December 21st with these rituals for summer solstice. May they bring you joy, love, and light in your life.

In nature-based faiths, the summer solstice is known as Litha and is considered one of the most sacred sabbats of the year. It marks the start of the summer months and the longest day of the year before the nights start to grow longer again.

People gather at Stonehenge for day and night long celebrations watching the sun align and shine through a certain point in the structure. In its most basic essence, this day is a celebration of the sun and that it is still shining on us. It will go out one day—but we should revel in our good fortune that we were born at this point in Earth’s evolution. The solstice also holds deeper nature metaphors for life, fertility, and the cycle of time and seasons. No matter what your view of spirituality or nature, it’s always worth celebrating when there’s sunshine involved!

It’s Summer Solstice!

What better time to get together with friends, family, and loved ones, and celebrate the source of all life? What better time to acknowledge the life force energy within us and give back to Creation some of the energy and blessings that we are always receiving. The Earth constantly provides for all of us with her incredible bounty, and the Sun’s warmth provides the light necessary for all living beings to thrive and prosper.

Creating ceremonies, celebrations, or rituals for summer solstice is a way for humans to express gratitude for these gifts. We have so many things to be thankful for—our families, our friends, our homes—and there are so many ways we can express our gratitude for those things: through words and actions, through gifts and offerings, through celebration.

The summer solstice is a great day on which to create your own ceremony or ritual of gratitude. It’s also a good time to connect with nature; find someplace where you can sit in silence with just yourself and your thoughts. There’s something invigorating about spending time alone in nature; it helps us reconnect with ourselves as well as with the natural world around us.

Rituals for Summer Solstice

1. Gather herbs

One of my favorite rituals for summer solstice is to gather plants and healing herbs as our ancestors did. Five common Celtic sacred plants associated with Midsummer are St. John’s Wort, Vervain, Yarrow, Fern, and Mugwort.

Manifold ceremonial features are associated with the Midsummer celebrations, but the lore of herbs and plants traditionally took the center spotlight around this special festivity. Herbs constitute a strong element for celebrating the Midsummer solstice due to their strong connections with magical and healing powers.

2. Have a Bonfire

3. Watch the Sun Rise and Set

4. Decorate Your Alter

5. Prepare a Summer Solstice Gathering

6. Bathe in the Light and Warmth of the Sun

7. Set Your Intentions

8. Spend Time in Nature

9. Leave Fairy Offerings

10. Create a Prayer Tree

The current moon phase for June 21st, 2025 is the Waning Crescent phase.

Earth-themed art prints

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Crescent phase. This phase is best viewed just before the sunrise in the western sky. In this phase the Moon’s illumination is growing smaller each day until the New Moon. During this part of the Moon cycle, the Moon is getting closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing the Earth with only a small edge of the Moon being illuminated. It can also be a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the edge where the illuminated portion meets the dark side, the craters and mountains cast long shadows making them easier to observe with a telescope or binoculars.

Today’s Waning Crescent Phase

The Waning Crescent on June 21 has an illumination of 19%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day.

Joyful birthday wishes from Lady Carla Beltane with the WOTC Family and Friends!!

May the next year of your life bring you more love, laughter, joy, happiness, enough income to cover what you have to have along with a little leftover for fun! May it bring you everything you want if it is supposed to be and everything you need. May sorrow be unknown, and any negativity be minimal. May the wind always be at your back.

Being a Gemini born on June 20th, you have a sympathetic and protective nature. You are mindful of those around you and although you have your own rhythm you try to be acceptant of everyone else’s.

When something or someone has caught your attention, you have no rest until you do something about it. Get ready to better understand your astrological profile in the following rows.

 The zodiac sign for June 20 is Gemini.

 Astrological symbol: Twins. This zodiac symbol is considered to influence those born May 21 – June 20, under the Gemini zodiac sign. This represents communication, expressivity, socializing and ideals.

 The Gemini Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, with the brightest star being Pollux. It lies between Taurus to the West and Cancer to the East, covering an area of only 514 square degrees between visible latitudes of +90° and -60°.

 In Greece it is called Dioscuri and in France goes by the name Gémeaux but the Latin origin of the June 20 zodiac sign, the Twins is in the name Gemini.

 Opposite sign: Sagittarius. This suggests realism and eccentricity and shows that cooperation between the Sagittarius and Gemini sun signs is thought to be beneficial for both sides.

 Modality: Mobile. This modality suggests the energetic nature of those born on June 20 and their sincerity and analytic sense in most life aspects.

 Ruling house: The third house. This house governs over travel related activities and communications from simple ones to difficult understandings. This explains why Geminis are so inclined towards human interactions and why they are always ready for adventure.

 Ruling body: Mercury. This planet reflects bravery and open mind. It also suggests the communicational component. Mercury takes 88 days to orbit the Sun entirely, having the fastest orbit.

 Element: Air. This is the element of those born under June 20 zodiac, the mindful ones who live their lives full of eagerness and in a bending manner. In association to water, it vaporizes it while with fire it makes things heat up.

 Lucky day: Wednesday. As many consider Wednesdays as the middle day of the week, it identifies with the versatile and eloquent nature of Gemini and the fact this day is ruled by Mercury only strengthens this connection.

 Lucky numbers: 2, 3, 10, 16, 26.

 Motto: “I think!”

 People born on June 20 are rapid and curious learners and try to discover as much of the world as possible. They sure get bored easily so this has transformed them in self made amusers and they seem to use this charm to keep themselves and those around them in a good mood. They are great story tellers but sometimes they suffer of a tendency to fix things around and even try to convince others to adopt their own beliefs and this can sometimes get on people’s heads. Although they seem so light headed and distracted, they can be quite serious when they agree to something for sure.

 Positive Traits: These natives are always searching for new experiences and trying to expand their horizons in all kind of ways. This is what keeps them vivacious and positive. However, they are also emotional and empathic and require the attention and support of their peers in order to have their own sentimental and social needs covered. They are both polite and direct at times and seem to adapt between these two quite easily but not always in the way that is expected of them or a way to keep them out of conflict.

 Negative Traits: When things don’t go the way they want them to, these natives are not the ones to stay and watch and are quick to react. Unfortunately, they most often lose their temper and forget that they are not the only ones in the world. They begin way too many projects than they can support and have no remorse in dropping them when they feel like it regardless if this involves disappointing other people.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on June 20 are versatile and ingenious. They do know how to conquer someone they get passionate, not only they know how to charm their way through words but also with gestures. They are attracted to active and unpredictable person who can keep them guessing but also keep up with their energy. For the sociable Gemini, love comes fast and goes even faster. You can conquer the heart of Gemini if you have an interesting personality and you know how to reveal it step by step and you are able to accept their eccentricities.

 They are prudent and circumspect lovers and although not passionate their gentleness and honesty compensate. Their relationships are likely to grow on friendships as they need time to know the person that stays beside them. They offer everything they have to their loved one and ask for the same. Gentle and loving daydreamers now, but when time comes they will prove to be very dedicated to their family and they are likely to sacrifice many of their dreams for their loved one’s sake. They are most compatible with those born on the 2nd, 5th, 9th, 11th, 14th, 18th, 20th, 23rd, 27th and 29th.

 June 20 Zodiac people are very attached to the other two air signs: Libra and Aquarius as they tend to share the same vision of life. In life, Gemini is in a constant search for a person that can truly understand their need to be listened to and the best to do this is the native in Sagittarius. The lover in Gemini is thought to be least compatible with Taurus. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Gemini, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: The color for Gemini natives born with the June 20 is yellow.

This hue denotes happiness and energy. This is a color of sheer joy and communication. The zodiac color should be used in items of clothing or objects in the house.

Joyful birthday wishes from Lady Carla Beltane with the WOTC Family and Friends!!

May the next year of your life bring you more love, laughter, joy, happiness, enough income to cover what you have to have along with a little leftover for fun! May it bring you everything you want if it is supposed to be and everything you need. May sorrow be unknown, and any negativity be minimal. May the wind always be at your back.

As a Gemini born on June 19th, you are flexible, witty and positive. Inquisitive by nature, you get involved in all sorts of activities, even if they are not necessarily connected or follow any of your goals.

But you enjoy this sweet distraction and it often leads you to discovering more about yourself. Notable changes will often be triggered by things you find out from your friends. Get ready to better understand your horoscope personality below.

 The zodiac sign for June 19 is Gemini.

 Astrological symbol: Twins. The sign of the Twins is influential for those born May 21 – June 20, when the Sun is considered to be in Gemini, a symbol of communication and sharing.

 The Gemini Constellation, one of the 12 zodiac constellations is spread on an area of 514 sq degrees and its visible latitudes are +90° to -60°. The brightest star is Pollux and its neighboring constellations are Taurus to the West and Cancer to the East.

 The name Gemini is the Latin definition for Twins, the June 19 zodiac sign. The Greeks call it Dioscuri while the Spanish say it is Geminis.

 Opposite sign: Sagittarius. This suggests consciousness and power and shows how Sagittarius natives are thought to represent and have everything Gemini sun sign people ever wanted.

 Modality: Mobile. The quality shows the intuitive nature of those born on June 19 and their enthusiasm and sincerity regarding most life aspects.

 Ruling house: The third house. This zodiac placement means an influence towards communication, human interactions and extensive travelling. It reveals the areas that attract the most the attention of Geminis.

 Ruling body: Mercury. This celestial planet symbolizes expansion and inquisitiveness. Mercury is consistent with Hermes from Greek mythology. Mercury is also suggestive for the sociable sense component of these personalities.

 Element: Air. This element represents mobility and ingeniousness and is considered to benefit clever and gifted people associated to the June 19 zodiac. Air makes things heat up in association with fire, dissipates water and smothers earth.

 Lucky day: Wednesday. Gemini best identifies with the flow of the notable Wednesday while this is doubled by the connection between Wednesday and its ruling by Mercury.

As the USA Celebrates Juneteenth

Always Be Proud of Who You Are

While we celebrate Emancipation Day of African-Americans in the USA let us remember it is time to put prejudices of all kinds in the past. No matter where you live on Mother Earth there is prejudice towards others for many different reason such as spiritual path, race, sexual orientation, being young or old, and many more things. As witches and pagans we feel and see this prejudicial treatment now add someone skin being a different shade that most of the society they live in and it’s a ticking timebomb for persecution. They way I look at it is we are all in a unique place to help educate people that every person has the same rights and deserve the respect of others, unless an individual does something wrong to you, others or society laws, to spread a message of kindness and harmony. Many people have been displaced over the centuries from their homeland by force to be sub-servient to those that kidnapped them. Try to put yourself in the head space of being kidnapped to a foreign land where no one speaks your language, you’ve been taken far away from your entire family or at least most of it, where everyone’s skin color is different from yours and you are made to do whatever your “owner” tells you to do or get punished for not doing it even if you can’t understand what is being said to you where the lightest punishment is just a few hard whacks with a cane or whip. How would you feeling? I am not saying this gives people the right to riot, cause trouble, purposely don’t work, etc. because they still feel in this day and age that the country their ancestors were brought to owe them something just because of skin color. What I am trying to say is treat everyone no matter if their lives are different from your in anyway with kindness, respect, and give them a smile when you pass on the street.

WOTC celebrates and welcomes everyone into our online family no matter your skin color, spiritual path, sexual preference or orientation, age or anything else you may have found people not welcoming you because of it. Let’s say a prayer or do a spell or both today to help end prejudicial treatment towards every human that walks, crawls, is carried on Mother Earth.

Blessed be to everyone reading this and remember to spread a message of kindness towards all!!!

Cernunnos: Horned God of the Celts

Cernunnos is one of the most enigmatic and fascinating figures in Celtic mythology. Depicted as a horned god, he was worshipped by the ancient Celts throughout much of Europe.

| Horned God | Protector | Fertility | Underworld |

In this article, we will explore the myths and legends associated with Cernunnos, and examine the many roles he played in Celtic religion and society.

Who was Cernunnos?

Cernunnos was a god of the Celts, who were an ancient people that inhabited much of Europe during the Iron Age. He is depicted as a horned figure, often holding a torque, or twisted metal necklace, and accompanied by various animals, such as stags, bulls, and serpents. Despite his popularity, little is known about Cernunnos and his exact role in Celtic religion and society remains a matter of debate among scholars.

The image of the horned god is one of the most distinctive and enduring symbols of the Celts. The horns are typically those of a stag, and they represent the god’s connection to … Click here to read the rest of this article Source: celticnative.com

Cernunnos – The Enigmatic Antlered God of the Ancient Celts

The Celts can rightfully be placed amongst the world’s most important ancient cultures and civilizations. Their far-reaching ancient origins are the irreplaceable part of every historical lesson, and their role in history was crucial in the development of the world as we know it today. Yet even so, many aspects of the Celtic culture and belief are a bit of an enigma – even today. Because they didn’t leave any considerable written records, the Celts are largely mysterious, and most of what we know of their early history comes from Roman or Greek historians. We do know, however, that Cernunnos was one of their foremost deities. A mystical antlered god, he was revered by the Celts across Europe.

Who was Cernunnos, the Antlered God of the Celts?

With the relatively recent discoveries of ancient Celtic core sites of La Tene and Hallstatt, in the mid-1800s, the world and the culture of these ancient Europeans came to the closer view of the general public and historians as well. Suddenly, there was so much more to learn about the Celts, about their art, their lifestyle, and their beliefs. Before the 1800s, the pantheon of the ancient Celts was largely enigmatic, but with new archeological material, typesites, and a closer glimpse into their religious rituals, we were finally able to paint a more detailed picture of the ancient Gods of the Celtic peoples.

Arguably the best-known deity in their pantheon is Cernunnos, the sylvan antlered god that likely has origins that far predate the emergence of the Celts. Sometimes also known as Carnonos, his name has firm Proto-Indo-European origins. It stems from the PIE word *k̑r̥no-, and is thus cognate to Germanic *hurnaz and Latin cornu, all meaning “horn”. In the Celtic Gaulish language, this word was karnon, and the connection with the name of Cernunnos is clear – it reflects the deity’s stag antlers, growing from his head. Thus, Cernunnos literally means “the horned one”.

This can also be deduced from the surviving imagery related to the god. In almost every surviving depiction, Cernunnos is presented as … Click here to read the rest of this article Source: .ancient-origins.net

Cernunnos Celtic God: Exploring the Ancient Deity’s Significance and Symbols

Cernunnos’ Abundance Prayer

Incense for Cernunnos: Cedar, Musk, Pine, Sandalwood.

Offerings to Cernnunos: Bones, Fruit, Grains, Red meat, Wine, Milk, Water, Moss, Fresh soil.

The Celtic Forest God, Cernunnos, gets his name from a Latin word which means “the horned one”. His original name was lost but the name Cernunnos was inscribed in the Pilier des Nautes, a Gaelic-Roman monument found under the Notre Dame cathedral, in Paris, France in 1711.

As a Horned God, he can take the place of consort of the Goddess in the Wiccan Pantheon (God and Goddess). And as a primordial deity in Neopagan traditions, his male principality makes him often be merged with other gods such as Pan and the Green Man.

He is believed to be the god of abundance and ruler of wild animals. His nature is essentially earthly. He is usually depicted with the ears and horns of a deer and wearing a “torque”, the sacred neck ornament of Celtic gods and heroes.

Devotional text

Cernunnos, Guardian of the cauldron of plenty, I call to You.
Horned One, Dark One, Receiver of the Dead, Granter of Rest, I call to You.
God of freedom, God of sexuality, God of cleansing, God of rebirth, I call to You.
Mighty Lord of the Woods and Animals, Hunter and Hunted, I call to You.

I pray you to be present with me in this Sacred Space.
Let Your gaze fall upon this Sacred Ground.
In-dwell my rite and give me Your blessing.
Great Horned One, come into the Circle!

Pour over me the gift of your wealth, and place in my hands the spirit of fortune.
Let the gold and silver come from the four corners of the world and bless me.

Because you are a god that creates and multiplies,
From the top of my head to the soles of my feet,
Surround me with a stream of wealth.
Unleash your prosperity and let health and protection accompany me.

I hear your words, Cernunnos, the voice of the Horned One,  Whose names are uncountable:
You are the wild hunter of the forest deep,
You are the fire upon the hill, And the sower of the seed,

The wilderness is your shrine.
You wield the oaken staff, the elements at your call.
By day you are the sun, by night you ride upon the wild winds
For all things wild and free are in your keeping.

And all things of beauty and freedom and love delight you.
You are the Ancient One. Your faces outnumber the stars.
I am the Horned One of uncountable names, you are the gentle and the fierce
You are Cernunnos, the Ancient One, Lord and Sire of the Universe.

Planet: Jupiter
Colors: Blue and Metallic

Ahhh Jupiter, you giant dick. While he is the go-to for power, money and good fortune, he’s about the long game. Fast money? Nope. He will give you more of what you have, so if you’re broke, you may be even more impoverished if you use any of his influence. Be careful with them herbs. Looking for justice? Thursday. Signing contracts or making big money moves? Thursday. Abundance looks different to everyone, but this is the day of plenty….sometimes that is just plenty of what you already have man. I’m serious here. My money spells done in the past before I got my shit together created lasting wounds. Expansion is painful when it comes from a space of lack. I said “I need money! I am broke” and he said “Hold my beer you desperate witch” and then I cried. Great money day if you are attracting what you are, but not what you want. I speak from my own experience and yours may differ, but if your money spells have backfired, look at the day and associations. If you see anything, take note. Everyone is different but I am not even ashamed to say that it took me years to figure this one out for my own magic. Good day for court and child support I must say.

June 19, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for June 19th, 2025 is the Waning Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 23.19 days old and 47.08% illuminated with a tilt of -71.105°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 372,296.09 km and the moon sign is Aries.

The Moon phase for June 19th, 2025 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

Natural satellite photography books

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the illuminated side of a waning crescent moon is always pointed eastwards, towards the sunrise.

Phase: Waning Crescent

Moon age: 23.19 days

  • 15 drops dill oil 
  • 30 drops arinse

  • Binding oil
  • String
  • Piece of paper
  • Pencil or pen
  • Black candle 
  • Match or lighter 
  • Fire-proof bowl

The first step you will need to complete for this is to cast a circle (how you normally would when preparing for your workings) and to ensure that all of your materials are within reach.

You will light your candle first, black is generally used because it symbolizes the removal of something from your life.

Next, you will write the obstacle that you wish to see removed from your life on the piece of paper. After which, you will spend a few moments visualizing how you will work to remove this obstacle from your life. It is important to remember that spells can assist a great deal, but you also have to put in the necessary time, effort, and energy towards what you are looking to accomplish. When you are finished, you will then take the piece of paper and fold it so that it is smaller in size, and begin to wrap your string around it. As you are wrapping the string around the piece of paper, you can recite the following incantation:

 As I wrap this cord, ________ will be no one.
_______ shall no longer be a part of my life.
This shall come to be. 

When you have finished wrapping, you will then take a small amount of the binding oil, and put it on the obstacle you have wrapped in the string. After which, you will take it, and place it in the fireproof bowl, and set it aflame. As it burns, the following incantation, or something similar should be recited:

As this obstacle burns, so shall the power it has over me.
This obstacle shall hold no power over me.
As it burns, it shall be released release from my life. 

After it has been burned to ash, you may close your circle. Once the ashes from your obstacle are cool to the touch, you may bury them somewhere away from your home so that they can cause no more harm.

(One Person’s View Point) To Be or Not to be Skyclad c.2013

As a High Priestess of a Coven, I am often asked by initiates if the Coven works “skyclad.” When a coven works skyclad, they will or should be upfront about it when you first approach them for membership. Any group that springs this on you after you have joined is unethical and not a group you want to be involved with.

To work skyclad means to work only clad or dressed within the sky and nature; nude, within all the powers that be; to work magick and ritual unencumbered by mortal threads.

It sounds wonderful, don’t you think? Just you and a few very close friends, all standing around in nature. One with the God/dess, not to mention a few thousand mosquitoes and other biting things.

Please don’t misunderstand; I love nature in all of her boundless beauty. But being dressed or undressed to work ritual or magick in circle seems more of a stress than release to most.

I am not saying that one tradition is any better than another because they leave their clothes on or drop the cloak. Don’t assume because I choose not to work skyclad that I have never have. Although I have found over the years that, many times, the idea of working skyclad gets lost and somehow misused by some less than honorable people who will take advantage of any opportunity to abuse.

The human body is a magickal and beautiful part of magick. Nudity without shame is also a statement of freedom from prejudice, inhibition, coercion, and so on. However, some people are not comfortable with the idea of nudity, and that should be equally acceptable.

Working skyclad is traditional for some groups. Many Gardnerian covens still perform their rites skyclad.

The idea has been stated that it was a common practice for the Old World Witches to do ritual and magick skyclad. I disagree. I don’t believe that Native American Shaman or Celtic Witches would have stood in the shivering cold while trying to perform magick as their fingers (not to mention other parts) became frost bitten from the ice and snow. It just doesn’t make sense to me.

The reasons given for working skyclad are many and varied. Most are also sincere in design.

According to some, clothing blocks the energy. This is a personal issue. For myself, the icicles hanging off my butt cheeks block way more energy than that cotton tunic.

I have heard that being nude in ritual deepens the trust between coven members. If I have trust issues with a Coven or its members, standing in front of them with all my wrinkles hanging out isn’t going to increase my trust. Being naked for some is an issue of shame or embarrassment. For whatever reason this may be, once shamed, they will never trust or be less for it.

It is believed that removing the robes will remove all indications of rank, and therefore places all members as equals. Again, a good concept. But the truth is that Joe Bob is still Joe Bob, with and without his clothes.

Being able to remove one’s clothes shows the level of commitment one has to the Craft and/or coven. My level of commitment comes from my heart and soul, not how or whether I am dressed.

Being dressed or skyclad should not affect how you work ritual or magick. There should be nothing sexual about performing rituals in the nude, but in this society, it is hard to keep the crazies out and keep the circle protected from them all.

Do not feel that you must go skyclad because that’s what real Witches do. Real Witches decide for themselves. Feeling uncomfortable during ritual will only detract from your purpose. So if you feel awkward being naked with others or even alone, then cover up.

As a child, I was allowed to watch and, in time, participate in rituals and circle with my Great Grandmother. She and the Sister (her coven) would gather and work great mystical rites of magick. They didn’t read books on what made them Witches, they just knew. They didn’t allow anyone to tell them how to do it, they just did. They didn’t worry about how it was, it just was. And not once did they work or perform any of their sacred magick skyclad. They knew magick is magick until you make it something less.

Some people have something special to wear whenever working ritual and magick. It should be something personal to you alone. It can be a medieval gown, a tunic or jeans and t-shirt. But only wear it for working and bless it to that end. Be comfortable in whatever you choose.

Some arguments for working skyclad can be found in the book Aradia, also called the Gospel of the Witches, by Charles G. Leland. In the Aradia, Witches in worship are specifically instructed to conduct their rites naked as a sign that ‘ye shall be truly free’. Because of this book, many have decided that all rites should be conducted skyclad. I enjoy Leland’s book, parts of which are extremely poetic. However, say it is the basics for a structure of a religion I disagree with.

Also put forth as evidence is artwork and early engraving by artists such Albrecht Durer. In 1497 his engraving portrayed four women undressing for a Witchcraft ritual. If this is the evidence, then no man shall be a Witch. Does no one think it odd that men, during a time when even men were somewhat oppressed, would tell stories or draw the Witches or women naked in their magickal workings?

Witchcraft, ritual and magick unite us on a higher level; One with the oldest Gods and Nature. The freedom and exhilaration of dancing under a Full Moon is one of the ways of drawing close to all those energies and powers. But that freedom should not come at the price of your personal power. You choose if your dance shall be in the sky or skyclad. Magick should always hold a bit of mystery.

If you are considering joining a coven and they perform their rituals skyclad, but you do not feel comfortable with it, find another coven. Do not expect any group to bend their rules for you, just as you should not bend your personal power or comfort to fit any coven or group.

Dance as if no one were watching,
Sing as if no one were listening,
And live every day as if it were your last.
