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
