Charge of the Bright GoddessBy Katja Sage, July, 2006The version of The Charge of the Dark Goddess on Weavings has inspired Kathleen to write the Charge of the Bright Goddess. Life and Light are the treasures of the Bright Goddess, Twin Sister of the Dark Herself. She has been known as Sol, Freya, Aphrodite, Artemis, Bast, White Tara, Kuan Yin, Laxmi, Abundantia, Demeter, Saraswati and the Original Light from which the world was born when She made love and danced with Her own reflection. Here are Her words: I am the gentle sunlight suffused through morning’s quiet moments, the new hope born each day at its dawning hour. Find me in meadow and grove, where my flowers entice and soft mosses glow. I am present in the tender embrace of lovers, and dwell in the first kiss of undeniable desire I am joy manifest, in drumming and dance, love affairs and play. I am wherever pleasure is, in abundant foods, and feasts, and all who smile. I am the moment of illumination, when life appears at its eternal, magical best. I am the bud in bloom, the growing child, the ecstasy of being, the force of unfolding frond, the shoots of new life in spring, the quickening in leaf and loin. I am laughter and delight. I am the sweetness of the doe, the mirth of the otter and the harmony of the songbirds. Honor these, and know my gifts. I am the Full Moon of summer, the Mother, the giver of abundance and endless bounty. My love is the cornucopia of blessings which I shower upon my children. I lift from your shoulders the mantle of your concerns, and illumine the joy of your original self. Ask me for what you desire, and you shall be free of want. I am the Nurturing Lover, the spirit of mystic union, the fertile giver, the healer who leads you to waken to the day. I journey with you and light the path ahead with my ever-brilliant torch. Give to me your fears and doubts, and I will transform them into clarity and confidence. I am the Queen of Alfhame, the delight of the faery folk, the glimpse of magic at the threshold of worlds. I am the laughter of sylphs and the sparkles on moving currents and wave. I am the traveler discovering new worlds, the doorway swinging wide to lands beyond the known. I am the laurel crown of victory, the realization of goals, the exaltation of achievement. I am the gold of the alchemists, and of dwarves, and I offer you my powers to enchant. I am the turning point in the dark night, a flash of knowledge, the thought of hope, the visions come true. I show you how to manifest your dreams in living colors. I am a Shining One, timeless in my wisdom and desire to guide you. I hold you in my warm and loving embrace, am kind and patient. Look for me, and invite my presence, and I will share with you my radiance and grace, my joy and magic in being. |
