Witchcraft Past and Present  
Deasil go by the waxing moon,  
Sing and dance the Witches’ Rune.  
(When the moon is waxing – moving from slim crescent to  
plump fullness, it is the time to move round the ritual  
circle clockwise as this draws in good things.)  
Widdershins go when the moon doth wane,  
And werewolves howl by the dream wolfsbane.  
(When the moon is waning is the time to move round the circle  
anti-clockwise as this takes away negativity. Wolfbane’s toxicity  
makes it a feared plant.)  
When the Lady’s moon is new  
Kiss thy hand to Her times two.  
(Welcome the new moon – just visible in the sky after being dark  
for three nights – welcome her by kissing the index and middle  
finger twice.)  
When the moon rides at her peak,  
Then your heart’s desire speak.  
(When the moon is full, you can ask her for anything as she will  
grant the heart’s desire.)  
Heed the north wind’s mighty gale,  
Lock the door and drop the sail.  
When the wind comes from the south,  
Love will kiss thee on the mouth.  
When the wind blows from the east,  
Expect the new and set the feast  
When the west wind blows o’er thee,  
The departed spirits restless be.
