Traditional Wiccaning Copyright By: Ed Fitch
On the first night after a baby is born, or the same night that the birth takes place, the Mother or Father (or midwife, if she is a close friend or relative) should take the infant out under the stars.
The child should first be held up to the sky, Saying: "O Lady of the Starry Heavens, Wise All-Father, Behold this lovely child 'Name'. Conceived and brought forth In love." Place the child on the ground, hands under the head, briefly, Saying: "Hail Earth, Mother of All. This is my infant, my love,
And my jewel. Bless and protect him/her. Granting your enduring and eternal
Strength, and steadfastness. May he/she ever have a spirit
That seeks the stars. And roots deep within
Thy loving breast." One should then clasp the child close and look about for a few minutes, for those who are gifted with second sight are often able at this time to see prophesies for the child or the mother. |
