Here is one I used for strength and protection:

"I call on the light of golden rays-
I seek proctection thus I pray-
For heavenly forces at my side,
Angels, sages, spirit guides or
Wovles who walk with cunning skill.
Come to my aid! Come at my will!
Blackbirds soaring- light my path,
So I am victim to no ones wrath!
And when my journey knows success,
All those who aid me, Goddess Bless!'


Not sure who is the author, but it really helped me when I needed it.

[themightyjenjen]

Besom Besom, long and lithe
Made from ash and willow with

Tied with thongs of willow bark
In running stream at moon set dark.

With a pentagram indighted
As ritual fire is lighted;

Sweep ye circle, deosil.
Sweep out evil, sweep out ill
Make the round of the ground
Where we do the Lady’s will

Besom Besom, Lady’s Broom
Sweep out evil Sweep out doom

Rid ye Lady’s hallowed ground
Of Demons, Imps, and Hell’s red hound;

Then set ye down on Her green earth
By running stream or Mistress’ hearth,

‘Til called once more on Sabbath night
To cleanse once more the dancing site.

[themightyjenjen]

This chant should be done at midnight, and only by one firmly grounded!

O stars whirling through the inky round:
O power hiding from the light;
O black curling on the darkened ground:
O secrets biding in the night;
O ebon treasures and the owls sweet cry:
O haunting forces of the deep;
O misty measures of the circling sky:
O daunting courses that you keep;

Come to me with your magic power!
Enfold me with your arcane might!
Be here at this mystic hour!

Goddess my shield, my encircler
Goddess my shield, my encircler,
Each day, each night, each dark, each light.
Goddess my shield, my encircler,
Each day, each night, each dark, each light.
In my lying, in my standing,
In my watching, in my sleeping.
Goddess be my strength everlasting.

Elemental Invocation
East I call to you,
High above the trees
Gliding on a soft breeze
Eagle come to me.

South I call to you,
Burning within me
Running through the jungle
Panther come to me.

West I call to you,
Deep within the sea
Dancing with the waves
Dolphin come to me.

North I call to you,
Underneath my feet
Howling at the full moon
Wolf come to me.

Center I call you,
Everywhere I see
Joining in the circle
Snake come to me.


God Invocation
Lover, hunter, brother, stag
Run the forest and the crags
Gentle, loving, caring, strong
Join the circle all night long
Guide me on my path this night
Stay with me til morning light
God reborn that I have found
Welcome to my circle round.

Triple Goddess Invocation
Lady of the morning
Maiden full of grace

Remind me of my creative spark

Crone the teacher still
Remind me of my wisdom
Hail and welcome be.

We are a Circle within a Circle, with no beginning and never ending (written by Rick Hamouris)

Earth my body, Water my blood, Air my breath, and Fire my spirit (origin unknown)

We all come from the Goddess, and to Her we shall return, like a drop of rain, flowing to the ocean (written by Z. Budapest)

We are one with the infinite sun, forever and ever and ever (Hopi Indian chant)

[aiyanna]

May the Circle be Open,
But unbroken.
May the peace of the Goddess,
Be ever in your heart.
Merry Meet,
And Merry Part,
And Merry Meet again.



The Moon is past the fullness of Her peak,
Yet still She calls to her people.
In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust,
We gather in the still of night.
We are Her children.
And as the Wheel turns,
We look with joy and anticipation,
To the Sacred Circle that is Her meeting place.
Come join together,
Chant and Dance.
To the delight of the Lady and Her Lord.

A Chant to Free Your Spirit

I am the four winds,

I breath and am by their presence,

I am the elements and their family,

They are my kin.

I am the freedom of the wind,

I am the agility of the fire,

I have the humor of electricity,

My love of nature from the earth,

My ignorance the darkness,

My truth I tell the light, My attitude...the ice.

Of these things I will always be,

Blessed Be

I am light , I am energy
I am the beginning , I am the end
I am life , I am death
I am without time , I am eternal
