A Solstice Chant to the God
Author: Unkown

Great God of Sun,
I welcome your return.
May you shine brightly upon the Goddess,
May you shine brightly upon the Earth,
Scattering the Seeds of Life and fertilizing the land.
All blessings upon You this day,
Reborn One of the Sun!
Blessed Be!


Silver Fox

A Spell Of Gratitude

A Spell Of Gratitude
By Raven Digitalis

Color of the day: Blue
Incense of the day: Pine

Timing: After Yule

Gratitude is one of the most profound emotions we can feel. To be grateful is to feel content and to acknowledge the things in your life that you truly and fully appreciate. So often, we go through life forgetting to say "thanks" to life itself. We often focus on the negative and forget to count our blessings. Gratitude is essential on any spiritual path—including the path of life itself! Today is the day after Christmas (which is, for Witches, a holiday about family, friends, and love, rather than a celebration of Christian mythology), and is shortly after Yule, the Winter Solstice, which celebrates the rebirth of the Sun rather than the "birth of the son" (same mythos, different skin). Because this time of year represents rebirth, renewal, gift-giving, and love, it's a perfect day to give thanks to the universe. Take a walk in nature by yourself, smelling the natural smells, feeling the Earth and the trees, and seriously paying attention to the profundity of the natural world. Give an offering of food or incense, and say your own prayer of gratitude to the spirits and the gods.

A Sunset Prayer For Yule

A Sunset Prayer For Yule
Author Unknown

Set aside some time to meditate upon the meaning of this time of year, and what it signifies for you and your life.

The longest night has come once more,
The sun has set, and darkness fallen.
The trees are bare, the earth asleep,
And the skies are cold and black.
Yet tonight we rejoice, in this longest night,
Embracing the darkness that enfolds us.
We welcome the night and all that it holds,
As the light of the stars shines down.

A Star Spell For The New Moon

A Star Spell For The New Moon
By James Kambos

Stars are among the most ancient of all spiritual and magical symbols, and they are revered by most major religions. They serve as symbols of hope, trust, beauty and fame. In December, stars take on special significance since they're linked to religious holidays and are a sign of the season. And naturally stars serve as our link to the heavens, as well as our loftiest ambitions. This New Moon begins as the year is about to end. Not only does combining New Moon energy with the star power create awesome possibilities, the stars will also illuminate our path as we enter a new year. For this spell, go all out when you decorate your altar. Cover the altar with a white or silver cloth. Use as many white and silver candles as you wish, and a few small mirrors. At the center of the altar place a clear bowl filled with plain spring water, and your wand or athame. This spell isn't meant for a specific wish; instead you should concentrate on bringing into your life as many new opportunities as possible. If you can, take your wand or athame and go outside. If the night is clear, gaze at the stars as if you see them for the first time. Point your athame or wand towards the sky and draw down the star energy. Return to your altar and gently dip the tip of your athame/wand into the bowl of water. Watch the ripples grow, envisioning your own power growing. When new opportunities begin coming to you, don't be afraid to reach for the stars.

What's Beyond This Earth...

I have had a huge bit of hesitation today about posting what was given to me
last night by Spirit... once you finish reading this .. you'll understand
why..LOL Spirit continues to urge me to post this message today .. although
I am unsure why it is Spirit wants this message sent out through me.. I must
send out the message. So here goes.....

Last night in meditation Spirit gave me the following information...

For some reason I must state the date in this post .. last night was
December 11, 2010

I was told that there are 3 other Earth-like planets that are within
traveling distance from our Earth ... yet to be discovered by us so far ...
or should I say .. yet to be announced as found. There are also 7 other
planets that are with traveling distance of our Earth that have other life
forms on it. It is important that I say within traveling distance .. because
there are many more out there but at the moment too far to be traveled to
from our Earth. These 3 other Earth-like planets are at different stages of
growth... the stages of growth I am unsure of .. I was not given that
information but it was urged that I state that they are not on the same time
line as our Earth. There are people that walk this Earth feeling completely
out of place ... as if they feel they don't belong here or they are other
worldly ... they feel a connection to something beyond our Earth ... they
feel left out .. isolated and alone in their thoughts and feelings. So at
this point I am to tell you that all beings ... not just from this Earth ..
but from all of the universe are connected to the same source. If you have
that disconnected feeling it may very well be that you originated or were
most connected to another life from one of the other planets.

When our bodies die .. our spirit lives on .. it goes back to the source for
rejuvenation and then chooses where it goes next ... so you see you may
choose one of the other planets .. one of the other life forms... just as
here you choose to come back at different times or as a guide or even an
animal, a plant or a tree.. it is always your choice.

I know how crazy this must sound ... but if you think about it for just a
moment and open yourself to these possibilities .. you might see or feel
that there may be some truth to this.

So many things go unexplained everyday ... I certainly don't have a fraction
of the answers.. but what I have learned so far in this life is that the
magic lies within those that are unexplained.

Many Blessings,
Raventalker
