This chant is a traditional way to begin your journey in witchcraft. It invites you to listen, learn, and seek wisdom. The words are meant for anyone interested in exploring the path of magic. They help connect the visible world with the unseen and encourage curiosity about the unknown. As you start this journey, remember an important principle: “An it harm none, do as ye please.” This means you are free to explore your own truth, as long as your actions do not harm others. Let respect and compassion guide you.
The elements—earth, air, fire, and water—are called upon to protect your Book of Shadows. Their energies are asked to shield your writings from those who may not understand or respect their purpose. The intention is to fill your book with wisdom and strength, especially as you dedicate yourself to learning and practicing witchcraft.
The powers of the North and East are also invited to support you. They can help you live with intention, keep an open mind, and grow in both spirit and knowledge. Their strength and stability can help you stay grounded and resilient as you continue to explore the mysteries of witchcraft.
