How to Pray the Wiccan Rosary
On The Pentagram:
O Gentle Goddess, listen to my rune, Bend to me Thine ear, Let my incantations and my charms Be heard. Come unto me, O Mighty Mother of us all, To protect me, your child, O Great Queen of Life, Together with the aid of The Lord of the Wildwood, Thy son and thy lover, To protect me with power, O Gentle Goddess Of purest fairest beauty.
On First Large Bead:
I invoke thee and call upon thee, O mighty Mother of us all, bringer of all fruitfulness, By seed and root, by stem and bud, by leaf and flower and fruit, by life and love, do I invoke thee, to descend that I may partake of Thy blessings.

Darksome night and shinning moon, East, then South, then West, then North, Hearken to the Wiccan Rune. Here I come to call you forth! Earth and water, air and fire, Wand, and pentacle and sword. Work ye unto my desire, Hearken ye unto my word! Cords and censer, scourge and knife, Powers of the witches�?blade. Waken all ye unto life, Come ye as the charm is made! Queen of heaven, Queen of hell, Horned hunter of the night. Lend your power unto my spell, and work my will by magic rite. By all the power of land and sea, by all the might of moon and sun. As my will, so mote it be, I chant the spell and be it done!
On The Remainder of Large Beads Before Each Decade:
Hail, Aradia, from the Amalthean horn. Pour forth thy store of Love. I lowly bend Before Thee! I adore Thee to the end. With loving offering thy shrine adorn. Thy foot is to my lips my prayer upborn. Upon the rising incense smoke then spend, Thine ancient love oh Mighty one descend to aid me who without Thee I am forlorn.
On the Small beads
Hail Diana Goddess of the Witches, The Horned Lord is with Thee Exalted art Thou among the Gods And blessed be the fruit of Thy Womb Aradia Holy Mother Diana, abide with me now And at the hour of my death
Closing prayer (On the Circle)
O My Goddess, Diana, hear my song of adoration. Hear my voice when I sing Thy praises. Hear my songs as they rise heavenward, When the Full Moon, brightly shining, Fills the heavens with Thy beauty. O my beautiful Moon Goddess, Hear me as I stand before Thee. See me when I reach toward heaven, When my arms reach upward toward Thee. When the Full Moon shines upon me, Give me Thy blessings, O Diana. Teach me of Thine ancient mysteries, Ancient rites of invocation that the Holy Strega spoke of, For I believe the Strega's story: When she spoke of Thy shining glory, When she told us to entreat Thee, Told us when we seek for knowledge to seek And find Thee above all others. Give us wisdom, O Diana: How to bind our oppressors, How to cure the sick among us. Teach me, O Diana. Give me Thy blessings, O Great Moon Goddess. Shield me from my oppressors. Receive me as your daughter, Diana. Receive me, though I am earth-bound. Grant me ancient Wiccan knowledge. When my body lies resting nightly, speak unto my inner spirit; Teach me all Thy holy mysteries. I believe Thine ancient promise, Thy promise unto the Witches That we who seek Thy holy presence will receive Thy Wisdom. Now the Full Moon shines upon me. Hear me! I stand before Thee! Grant me wisdom! O Diana! Shield me from my oppressors! Teach me Thine holy mysteries! I sing Thy praises unto the heavens. Let Thy glory shine about me. Bless us, O gracious Queen of Heaven. Descend Thou among us; Descend and conquer, Gracious Goddess. So Mote it Be, yea, So Mote it Be! |
