Beauty and Death

“Beauty and Death before me…

There is nothing worth living, but life”

Cunning were the words she spoke

As she Rose to greet the Sun/Son

And as her cOnsort she kissed his lips.

Wars had been waged in her honor

Her bounty was the Earth

Men have knelt before her

Knowing that she is Queen.

Goddess, All Mother, Queen of the Fae

Call now all your children forward

Mundane no longer an option.

The Oracle now speaks:

“Reach deep down in your soul

For she shall soon Reap

Intense is the love of the Morrighan

Great is what she’ll teach”

Her warriors stand now beside her

Aware of her return

Speak Now of her

Magick and monarchy

“A new age she ushers in.

Enough is not a word she knows.

She teaches, Victory or death!

Each warrior she loses along the way

is another lesson that must be learned

Ne’er do wells should not seek her—

She will weed you out!”

Her Intrigue is what will call you

Mesmerized you will be

Answer you must do

Claim your sovereignty or eternal sleep

Her lesson becomes your life

Your life is one with the land

And all shall be at the end

The same as it began

Don’t cry if you are afraid

Or she will tell your tale

Red will be the blood you spill

Unsure of your fate?

Nothing will ever be the same

If you stand strong you are worthy

And nothing will ever be the same

New is the horizon before you

Under the moon you shall dance

Surrounded by her spirit

Undying shall be your faith

“Born to be a witch” you will proclaim

The Raven she sends before you

An Omen of her grace

She smiles as she embraces you

At long last you have taken your place.

She sings to you

And bathes you in mothers milk

She laughs the caw of the crow

She shows you the past and your present

“Work” she says is what you must do

“A warrior!” she says “You will be!”

Your mission “to find your sovereignty”

And Nothing will ever be the same

The people will call you “Your Majesty”

Your kingdom will never fail

Learn much you must

Before becoming crone or sage

And age will not determine your degree

But heed her lessons

“In perfect love and perfect trust”

Or death will be your final fee.
