Heart-beats out a thunderous scream, lights flash and mirrors
gleam, prickly hairs rearing tall on the backs of their neck as the
ravens caw, trouble times are dead ahead for those who ignore the
Witch's dread, Witch's eyes light up the night, silver star burning
bright, a curse we fear as trouble unfolds-a curse we fear of a
future untold, heed the warning of the Witch's hound, for howl he
will as trouble abounds, bringing news of the grim in his growl
foretelling a future once bright that will turn deadly upon this
night, moss and mold hang everywhere-negative magic is in the
air.
Black magicians conjuring hard to raise the dead out in the yard,
the wheel of the year spins out of control, where will this night
take us nobody knows, conjure, conjuring, raise and rise, black
spirits to the moon take wings and fly, encircle the maiden thrice
abound-deosil in reverse is where she can be found!
Fear not the night in which you misunderstand and keep the
uninvited spirits at bay by shielding your hearth with salt and
sand; place a besom crossways of your door and answer not the
chiming sounds of the spirits calling your name as they walk your
grounds, speak ill, not of the dead for they are not immune to our
sound and a curse can be laid upon a human with just a glance, so
chance not the rendering of a curse to your core and cover your
mirrors with sheets of white, for it is within the looking glass
that they gain their sight!
The looking glass shines with their eyes peering through, the eyes
of the dead are watching me and you, the looking glass is a portal
that they'll walk through, the looking glass is how they will come
for me and you, the dead will walk the earth one last night they
will rule, the dead will walk the earth without fear of me and you,
fear not the dead for the evil ones can smell your fear, fear not
the dead for your guardians will be looking after you!
Halloween is the Witch's new year, it is a very sacred and powerful
time of the year, upon this night we hold many different types of
ritual, I perform several different types of ritual during the days
leading up to Hallowmas as well as the days that follow, Halloween
is also the night of the dead, but not in the scary way that I
described above, it is the night in which we say our final good
byes to our loved ones, friends, family and even pets who have
crossed the long bridge into the Summerland during the previous
year, we hold a circle in which our formal good byes are said in
and those of us who have lost someone will put our wine and cakes
or even our loved ones favorite meal prior to going to circle, this
is known as the Dumb Supper, the Christians took it and derived
their version of the Lord's Last Supper, funny how things come into
being!
I wish each of you a happy and safe Halloween and would like to
remind cat lovers that the number of black cat deaths increase
during the month of October, some simply fall victim to pranks that
are taken a little too far, while others are used in ritualistic
sacrifice by those who still practice certain religious beliefs, a
Witch doesn't believe in harming or sacrificing any living thing,
although I must admit in my single days there were a couple of guys
that I certainly fantasized about cutting something off and it
wasn't the head on their shoulders! (lol) But, on a more serious
note those of you who have black cats or kittens that you are
trying to place into homes please wait until after Halloween to do
so, unless you know the parents to be well enough that you can say
with certainty that their only motive is to provide the little one
with love and a good home.
Blessed Be
Phelan
