THE CHARGE OF THE GOD
Listen to the words of the God, who is
son, brother, lover, and consort of the
Lady:
I am the fleet deer in the forest, I am
the beach which receives the waves, I am
the sun which warms the earth. I am the
Lord of the Spiral Dance of Life, Death
and Rebirth, the gentle reaper, the
Winter Stag and the Spring Fawn. All
things are of me, for I am of the
Goddess, opposite, yet not opposing. I
bring forth from the womb that is a
tomb, for I am the seed which
fertilizes. I am abundant Life, for I am
the grain that grows and I am death, the
harvest in the Fall. And I am rebirth
after darkness, for I am the seed that
springs forth anew.
I am fertility, the spreader of Life,
and I am the Lord of Death, which adds
value to life.
I am the Guardian of the gate between
Life and Death. I am the King of the
Underworld, where no living being may
venture, but I am also the King of
Rebirth, turning the tomb into a womb.
I bring love and strength, peace and
passion, hope and joy, for I am the
gentle lover in the night.
All that comes from the Great Mother, the Divine Star Goddess, who is Mother of us all.Blessed be.
