Black bird soaring light my path so I am victim to no one's wrath! And when my journey knows success, all those who aid me Goddess bless! - Chant For Inner Strength - by Autumn Raindancer Pagan Grace copyright Catherine Deville 1996 Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found. I'm in recovery. T'was Pagan grace that taught me fear was something to disown. and Pagan folk that lead me here, that helped me find a home. T'was Mother Earth who set me free and taught me how to see. I'll no more look to other men for my divinity. I now have freedom, joy and power I have the Pagan key. I know my freedom lies in self responsiblity. I no more seek for God in fear and crawl on bended knee. My Mother's love is full and kind and wants no such from me.

I call upon thee of the waning skies- Grant me your vision and open my eyes! Goddess I ask thee to live within me! Grant me your knowing, and show me to see! Lend me your wisdom and love for all things; Goddess of magick, I call unto thee! Artemis, Cerridwenn, Hecate! Artemis, Cerridwenn, Hecate!

She changes everything She touches, And everything She touches changes.
