The Witch's Besom

Hi Witches

Todays book review is Into the Wild - Shadow Work Journal written by Dominica Applegate.

We are talking all about the witch's besom on this episode - the besom has many sexual associations so best not to listen to this episode around little ears!

Much of this episode came from the amazing website below which was the best account I have ever found on a witchcraft topic -

The Besom – Good Witches Homestead

Besom Chant

“Besom, besom, sacred broom

Sweep out darkness, sweep out gloom

Rid this sacred hallowed ground

Of demons, imps and hell bent hounds;

Then set ye down on Her green earth

By running stream or Mistress’ hearth,

Till called once more on Sabbath night

Consecration Chant

“Besom of birch and willow tied,

Be my companion and my guide.

On ashen shaft by moonlight pale

My spirit rides the windy gale

To magickal realms beyond both space and time.

To magickal lands, my soul will sail.

In the company of the crone, I’ll ride

This besom of birch with willow tied

So do I consecrate this magickal tree.

As I will it, so mote it be.”
