Charge of the Dancing Deities

There was a charge I had gotten from a friend that I forwarded out to some of my own friends that was very well liked called "Charge of the Dancing Goddess"

One of my friends liked it so much she wanted to know if I had another one for the God. I could not find one on the internet or anywhere else so I decided to write one up for her!

This is the one I wrote!

Charge of the Dancing God
Hear the words of the Dancing God, the music of whose laughter stirs the wind, whose voice calls the seasons.
"I who am the Lord of the Hunt, and the power of the Light, sun among the clouds, and the secret of the flame.
I call upon your bodies to arise and come to me.
For I am the flesh of the earth and all its beings.
Thru me all things must die and with me are reborn.
Let my worship be in the body that sings, for behold all acts of willing sacrifice are my rituals.
Let there be desire and fear, anger and weakness, joy and peace, awe and longing within you.
For these too are part of the mysteries found within yourself, within me, all beginnings have endings, and all endings have beginnings."


Now the original Charge I have never been able to find the author too if you know who it is please tell me so I can give him or her credit!

Here it is!

Charge of the Dancing GODDESS
Hear the words of the Dancing Goddess, the music of whose laughter stirs the soul, whose voice sings the elements.
"I who am the Lady of Love, and the power of the Maternal, moon among the night, and the secret of the lake.
I call upon your bodies to arise and come to me.
For I am the heart of the earth and all its beings.
Thru me all things must die and with me are reborn.
Let my worship be in the body that moves to the rhythm, for behold all acts of love are my rituals.
Let there be desire and fear, anger and weakness, joy and peace, awe and longing within you.
For these too are part of the mysteries found within yourself, within me, all beginnings have endings, and all endings have beginnings."
The Spiral of Life


I hope you enjoy these charges!
