Invocation of the Goddess
Lady Empress, Natures Queen. Who walks alone in lands between.
With Masks of gold and darkest gray. As nights own ward and Fire's day.
No man nor child of human face denies Thy works of ageless grace.
Or takes offense to winter's cold for through Her rest springs summer's gold.
So take my hands by crafted light. Take my arms with cunning might.
Take my voice and be my words. Take my soul of triple thirds.
Become my flesh and fill my blood. Infuse my bones with mystic flood.
And speak we two as name's invoked. Thy will in me. Thy will envoked.
"Through voices many, My names each are told. As Diana I hunt as Diana I hold. As Fauna and Bird, Demeter and Neth, All are eternal beyond even death. In darkness I die though Hel I am still. As Eris I toy. As Kali I kill. The likeness I steal from Brother, the sun. His image and death in My eyes are one. But through My embrace, My children shall rise. No sleep shall enslave. No fate can disguise. All those among them, the weak and the strong.
The wise and the lost, to Me all belong. And need Ye to find Me, Ye need only call.
On sabbat or moon. In spring or in fall. My wings are the wind. My blood is the seas. My womb is the earth. My arms are the trees. And these Mine own gifts to all I bestow. Of magick and sight to cure and grow. But mark Ye this well when dark arms invade. From evil of heart, My teachings soon fade. So go Ye in love and take what Ye need. My flesh be Thy feast though take not with greed. And those of the Wise whose beckon I know, May
balance preserve Thee, above and below."

Invocation of the Horned God
Horned Hunter, nature's green. Who rides the night through trails unseen. As deer and wolf, prey and beast. Thy streams of light yield hunger's feast. As mother's soil sustains thy grain, thy cloven hooves complete the chain. And form the seal by which we feed. No want for soil without the seed. So come ye thus and join my hands as guide and guard through these Thy lands. Take this my heart and make thine own. Thy warder's will in me be sown. As dawn draws nigh become my mind with single soul we two combined. And speak we two as name's invoked. Thy will in me, the will envoked.
"Through lands far and near My names each are known. As Herne I am death, as Sin I atone. As Shiva and Throth I cling to men's eyes, And show them the riddles they seek in the skies. As Dagda and Dwynn, I yield peace and light. As Ogma I teach and rule not with might. Men call Me Neptune when saved by the seas, And know me as Set when cut at the knees. My Mother and Wife are one and the same. Through death in her arms I rise and reclaim. All My dominion She guards in My wake. And weeps winter moons 'til life I retake. The soil of Her womb holds seed and gray bone. As phoenix and father, I sire my own. And to all My young I give only this: All My essence to seek and find bliss. As wolf who protects that pack from harm, I cast out the ills that maim and disarm. All who seek refuge from exile and blame I grant Ye my lair as den without shame. Whatever path Ye seek through the sands My blessings I give just honor My lands. And 'til journey's end when breifly Ye sleep, May wisdom and cunning in justice Ye keep.

Invoking the Elementals
The four elements of Air, Fire, Water and Earth exist as spiritual essences, as philosophical concepts, as energy states and as a tangible physical reality. " Working magick with the elements helps to connect us to the tangibly present natural powers in our physical world, whilst at the same time we are returning to the building blocks of magick by rooting our feet in the material world. Since Empedocles formalized the system in ancient Greece in the 5th century BCE, the four elements have become an integral part of the Western Esoteric Tradition – passing from ancient Greek magick, through the Qabalah, & Grimoire Traditions into modern derivative traditions of ceremonial magick and paganism.
The Chant:
Darksome night and shining moon
Hearken to the Witches’ Rune
East then South, West then North
Here, Come!
I call Thee forth!
By all the powers of land and sea
Be obedient unto me
Wand and Pentacle and Sword
Hearken Ye unto my word!
Cords and Censer, Scourge and Knife
Waken all Ye into life
Powers of the Witches’ Blade
Come Ye as the charge is made!
Queen of Heaven, Queen of Hell,
Send your aid unto the spell
Horned Hunter of the night
Work my will by magic rite
By all the powers of land and sea
As I do say
So Mote It Be
By all the might of Moon and Sun
As I do Will
It shall be done!
