The Threefold Dark Charge of the Queens

Parallel to the Threefold Charge of Light and Fire, this Charge is meant to be given by a woman, a man, and a non-binary/mxgender person during the dark time of the year.

Hear ye the words...hear ye the words...hear ye the words

Of the God/dess/x

The pulse of whose heart

Runs through your veins

Whose blood is the beginning (and end) of life

I am the dark velvet of midnight’s quiet

And the grace of movement in darkness

And the enormity of all you imagine when there is no limit

And the power of the scythe

Call unto your soul, arise and come unto Me!

For I am the Queen of the darkest hour

Which gives knowledge of all ends

From Me all beings are born

and unto Me they return again and again

Before Me, beloved of all, let your divine innermost self

Be exalted in the presence of Divine glory

Let my worship be in the heart that rejoices, for behold:

All acts of love and pleasure are my rituals

Therefore, let there be beauty and strength, honor and pride, power and compassion, mirth and reverence among you

And those of you who seek to know Me, know this: That all your seeking and yearning shall avail you not, unless you know the Mystery.

If that which you seek, you find not Here, you shall never find it. For behold, I have been with you from the beginning and I am unfolding in your soul at this very moment

The Threefold Charge of Light and Fire

As we dive into summer, I offer up this Threefold Charge which includes a place for a mxgender voice in addition to the God and Goddess. All hail the May Court! All hail the heat, light, and power of Summer itself!

Threefold Charge of Light and Fire

Hear ye the words of the God/dess/x

The power of whose flame births the world

Whose heat is the spark of creation

I am the hot glare of the sun

And the wild rage of the fire

And the roaring throb of sex

And the revelry of the land in abundance

Call unto you arise and come unto me

For I am the beating heart of the universe

From me, you take your pulse

And unto me, you bear the fruits of your desire

Before my throne, beloved of all

Let your divine innermost self

Sit in the lap of radiance

Let my worship be in the heart that rejoices

For behold, all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals

Therefore, let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honor and pride, mirth and reverence among you

And those of you that seek to know me, know this: 

That that which you seek, you shall never find

Unless you know your own power

For behold, I have been with you from the beginning

And I am that which you attain in the glowing potential at the center of your own soul.
