Wiccaning Ritual

On the first night after a baby is born, or the same night that the birth takes place, the mother or father (or midwife, if she is a close friend or relative) should take the infant out under the stars. The child should first be held up to the sky, saying:
"O Lady of the Starry Heavens, Wise All-Father,
Behold this lovely child ________.
Conceived and brought forth
In love."

Place the child on the ground, hands under the head, briefly, saying:

"Hail Earth, Mother of All.
This is my infant, my love,
And my jewel.

Bless and protect him/her,
Granting your enduring and eternal
Strength, and steadfastness.
May he/she ever have a spirit
That seeks the stars,
And roots deep within
Thy loving breast."

One should then clasp the child close and look about for a few minutes, for those who are gifted with second sight are often able at this time to see prophesies for the child or the mother.
