INVOCATION OF THE MOON GODDESS

Diana, queen of night,
In all your beauty bright,
Shine on us here,
And with your silver beam
Unlock the gate of dream;
Rise bright and clear.
On earth and sky and sea,
Your magic mystery
Its spell shall cast,
Wherever leaf may grow,
Wherever tide may flow,
Till all be past.
O secret queen of power,
At this enchanted hour
We ask your boon.
May fortune’s favor fall
Upon true witches all,
O Lady Moon!

Dream Pillows

One of the popular magics for herbs is fashioning dream pillows. These are little pillows stuffed with herbs to affect a desired result and placed under the pillow of the person to be affected. They make great gifts. The colour of the pillow varies as do the herbs depending on the purpose for which it is made. If the pillow is to be made for dreaming the/any ingredients should be collected during the waxing or full moon.
