GUIDED MEDITATION BY PRIEST
(Meditation will be about our own spiritual harvest. This will conclude with a personal empowerment chant)Empowerment Chant
(Holding hands, the coven members repeat the following chant until the high priestess decides that enough energy has been raised, and upon her signal everyone will direct a portion of the energy into themselves to help them to develop the inner strength to attain personal spiritual goals.)
Ripen fruit, ripen seed
Harken to my inner need
Communion
(Fruit and Wine, songs, and a good time. Also, each member of the coven will be asked to describe something that they have done in the last liturgical year that has "borne fruit.")
Quarter Banishings
(High Priest)
Facing East: Guardians of the watchtower of the east, return now to the brisk Autumn breezes which are brimming with the excitement of the year's climax. Take with you our blessings and thanks. Hail and farewell!
Responsorial: Hail and farewell!
Facing South: "Guardians of the watchtower of the south, return now to the dying fires of Autumn's heat soon to give way to Winter's chill. Take with you our blessings and thanks. Hail and farewell!
Responsorial: Hail and farewell
Facing West: "Guardians of the watchtower of the west, return now to the Autumn rains which cool the Earth's fevered brow baked in the heat of Summer afternoons. Take with you our blessings and thanks. Hail and farewell!
Responsorial: Hail and farewell!
Facing North: Guardians of the watchtowers of the north, return now to the Earth where worms burrow deeper and seeds nestle awaiting the long sleep of Winter.
Take with you our blessings and thanks. Hail and farewell!
Responsorial: Hail and farewell!
Circle Banishing
(High Priestess)
Equal night and equal day
Soon the light will fade away
Equal day and equal night
This circle fades as does the light
Thus the magick we invoke
Fades anon like wisps of smoke
Until we next decide to play
SO MOTE IT BE!
