Hark the Neo-Pagans Sing
By "Sunblade"(Tune: Hark the Herald Angels Sing)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hark the Neo Pagans sing,
Glory to the Holly King!
Peace on Earth and mercy mild,
God and Goddess reconciled,

Hear us now as we proclaim,
We have risen from the flames,
Our ancient Craft now we reclaim,
In the God and Goddess'' names
Hark the Neo-Pagans sing,
Glory to the Holly King!

Herne by highest love adored,
Herne the ever-reborn Lord,
At all times behold Him come,
Offsring of the Holy One,
Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see,
Hail incarnate Deity!

Blessing the Day

Color of the day: Gold
Incense of the day: Eucalyptus

Each day brings a whole new host of opportunities. Both for personal growth and magical development, it helps to acknowledge these possibilities with a daily blessing. Here is a spell to bless your day that you can customize for your own needs.

I bless this day as it comes to me, full of promise and potential.
I give thanks for the things I have, for they fulfill my desires:
Now list three things you already have and enjoy.

***Note from Gypsy--we may get snow this Friday in the Arklatex.

In the flurry of the season before Yule, it is a good time to do a welcoming spell for your hearth and home.

Begin by cleaning a room you wish to use to entertain in the near future. Once done, sweep round it three times in a clockwise fashion while chanting:
In this room where friends will meet, happy thoughts each heart complete.

When finished, sprinkle salt water in every corner, proceeding clockwise while chanting:
In this room let peaceful chords strike the tone of every word.
