I thought blessings would be a good thing to write in the guild's shadows. The credit for the following blessings (well, the ones I posted) goes to the other members who posted them somewhere in a topic on the guilds' main page, and as I was starting a new Book of Shadows, I wrote them down. But, I think I changed one or two words here and there.

Book of Shadows Blessing.
Listen as the witch's word
Calls the all, a gulf to ford.
Bridge the vast realities,
An' it harm none, do as ye please.
Elements watch and guard this book,
From wandering eyes and prying look.
In this right and ready hour,
Fill it with thine ancient power.
Powers of north, earth below,
Show us to live, to learn and grow.
Lend us your strength and stability,
To practice with love and set ourselves free.
Powers of east, the wind and the sky,
Watch over these pages with thine eye.
Your wisdom and knowledge, for these we do ask,
That this book be worthy - The Craft and its Task.
Powers of south, the fire and the hearth,
Help these shadows to prove their worth.
Infuse and uplift with your healing and passion,
So that only good comes from the works that are fashioned.
Powers of west, the water and sea,
Transformation and growth are granted by these.
Bless herein pages with all that you know,
So all righteous leaders may learn and may grow.
In winter, in spring, in summer and fall,
In our shadows we ask for the aid of the all.
To practice the craft of the wise as we must,
With truth, perfect peace, perfect love, perfect trust.
We ask for the blessing of Lady and Lord,
As we hold up her chalice and brandish his sword.
All that we know is infused with their power,
From sun and from moon, from rock and from flower.
Guard us, Earth Mother, and teach us your lore,
From silvery moon to the earth's inner core.
When working our magick, please help us not fear it,
We know you will guide us and strengthen our spirit.
Grant us, Sky Father, your wisdom and strength,
To complete all our workings, to go the full length.
You smile down upon us, the light of the sun,
Rejoicing in life, with you we are one.
Guardians from the four directions,
Lady and Lord, it's your protection
And love for which we look,
To inspire us and lead us as we write in this book.
Yet, to the unschooled eye, let see,
Confusing words and sophistry.
Lead them from these sacred pages,
On blessed ways throughout the ages.
Yet, to the witch, this book shall stay
Plain and truthful, clear as day.
Direct and show, guide and teach,
Their dreams and goals, please help them reach.
For free will of all,
An' it harm none,
As I have willed it,
It is now done.
So mote it be!

Five-Fold Blessing.
Blessed be thy feet that bring thee on this path.
Blessed be thy knees that kneel to the Lord and the Lady.
Blessed be thy womb, without whichwe would not be.
Blessed be thy breast, formed in beauty and in strength.
Blessed be thy lips, that speak the sacred names.

It's about the god and the goddess and their.. er.. connections.

I'm aware of what the Great Rite is stare And I like the concept because sex is an action of great passion and passion carries a power, just like music.

Yay ^_^ I did it! I performed the blessing of my BoS! First I said a prayer, then I used an exercise I read in a book to gather energy into my Chakras and then I transferred that energy into my book. And I felt all that energy too, so I know it worked ^_^
