Chants
Sylph Song
I wrote this chant in 1994 for use in our wiccan sweat lodges. We often use it as a part of circle casting, calling the power of Air, and in rituals that focus on inspiration and communication.

Lyrics
Sylph Song
Airy Messengers Clear The Clouds From Our Minds. Whispers In The Winds
Words Rustle Through The Leaves. Inspiration Spins Like Feathers In The Winds.
Sweet Air, We Breath Deep. New Promises We Keep
By Ivo Domínguez, Jr.
Shed, Release
In April of 1999, a woman who called herself Cobalt came to one of our sweat lodges. In the lodge she sang a chant that she'd written. Right after the sweat, I had her sing into the built in microphone on my computer so we would not forget the chant. The sound quality is less than perfect, but it captures the moment. I've cleaned it up and converted it to an MP3.
There are so many uses for this chant. I love it.

Lyrics
Shed, Release
Whatever It Takes, Whoever You Are. Heal The Wounds, Erase The Scars
Allow Your Hearts To Be Wide Open. Shed, Release, Return Unbroken
How Many Times Have You Gone Within. Only To Find Yourself There Again
Shed, Release, Return Unbroken. Know Thyself This Truth Be Spoken
By Cobalt
Promise Of Green
I wrote this chant in 1995 for a ritual that Keepers of the Holly Chalice was planning. It has been used over the years at both Spring Equinox and Beltane rituals.

Earth Spirits
This is chant written during the Big Ice Storm of '94 at Seelie Court in Delaware. We were actually housebound for 6 1/2 days without electricity and keeping warm with a wood stove. We did many things to pass the time including writing this chant. The authors are James E. Dickinson, Ivo Dominguez, Jr., Michael G. Smith, Nancy G. Stewart, & James C. Welch.
We use this in Quarter calling and in our sweat lodges.

The Beat Of Beltane
I wrote this chant in April of 2008 when it was clear we needed a new chant and May day was approaching fast.
- Ivo
Lyrics
Beat Of Beltane
The Flames And Flowers Of May
Are Rising, Oh Rising
Pounding Out The Beat Of Beltane
Turn Sunwise Or Widdershins
And Circle, Oh Circle
Pounding Out The Beat Of Beltane
Dance Closer Now My Lovely
Tight We Twine The Ribbons
Pounding Out The Beat Of Beltane
Now Jump The Fire Eternal
Kiss The Sky, Kiss The Earth
Pounding Out The Beat Of Beltane

The Pleiades Chant
We use this chant many ways. Often it is what we use to settle and to sweeten the energy at the end of a ritual.
We’ve also sung it to friends that just needed a moment of peace.

I learned this chant from Macha Nightmare of Reclaiming at COG's MerryMeet '91
A Song For The Morrigan
I was sick for the last two days and am feeling better today. The fever left me this chant as a gift.
I also got the nudge to restart the chant website.
