Cambridgeshire Witchcraft and Folklore


REFLECTIONS

We have been heard on the hillfort and within the graveyard and  have been privileged to witness the Witch in preparation of her departure to the Castle in the North.  With her blessing the village enters 2009 our faith in the Old Ones strengthened beyond measure as we prepare once more to tread the dark recesses of witchcraft.

The season turns and the promise of harvest beckons.  In the secular world one would not expect to get something for nothing.  It is the same with witchcraft.  Sometimes the sacrifices required are great and will test even the best of us but those sacrifices are nearly always rewarded especially at this time of year.

Those who walk this path know there is a symbiotic relationship that cannot be ignored.  It is the reason why once committed to this path you cannot simply switch it off or tuck it away in your bottom drawer ready to bring out at the weekend.  Witchcraft is a way of being, not just a way of life.

May the blessing of harvest bring all you desire.

Earthbound

I will remember whispers on the breeze.
Perfumed incense, honeysuckle sighs.
Firelight smouldering.
Earthbound spirits draped in starlight.
Dark’ning skies
Reflecting maiden moon.
 
I will remember voices in the storm.
Shadows cloaked in midnight promises.
Swirling silver streams.
Earthbound spirits weaving dreams of
Dark desire
Reflecting moonless night.
  
I will remember echoes on the wind.
Serpent smiles, mistress of enchantment.
Belladonna eyes.
Earthbound spirits sacrificing
Tears of blood
Reflecting changeling moon.

I will remember, shadows in the mist.
Your gentle voice a distant memory.
I sense your presence.
Earthbound spirit dancing through the
Veil of death
Reflecting endless twilight.

A Witch once said to me 'How can anyone not want to be a part of witchcraft?'.  I tend to agree.  This is the most amazing path and the possibilities are endless.
