Fire & Wind Chant
This is a rhythmic power-raising chant that builds momentum, stirring energy like rising flames and rushing air. It can be spoken alone or performed with movement—whether stomping, clapping, swaying, dancing, or even simply moving one’s hands. Beginning at a slow, steady pace, the chant gradually increases in speed and intensity, amplifying the energy raised. It can be repeated as needed or performed as a round in a group, creating a layered, surging current of power. It can also be broken into couplets of lines for simplicity and easy memory.
Fire in the foot, wind in the hand,
By iron and ash, by sea and land.
Tongue to flame and breath to spark,
Turn the wheel, awake the dark.
Storm-born spirits, wild and wise,
Come on the current, ride the skies.
Witch-fire rises, heart beats fast,
By pact and power, spell is cast.
Blood to ember, bone to stone,
Light the path, break the throne!
Round and round the power sways,
By word and will, by olden ways!
Now is the hour, the working begun,
By night, by fire, by moon, by sun!
(Release the energy on the final line.)
