Handfasting

Union

Let’s celebrate, dance, and sing,

For Lord and Lady, Queen and King.

Unite together, hearts are one,

In sacred marriage, bound as one.

This magic is worked, with harm to none.

So mote it be. There, it is done.

Witches’ Wisdom

A coming together, in whatever form, is celebrated when handfasting shows up.

Witches’ Foresight

Prepare for a handfasting ceremony. Commit to a relationship. Commit yourself in service to Spirit through vows of dedication. The union of a partnership brings great blessings. Make a promise to always be true to yourself. Love is the answer.

Handfasting Revealed

The tying of hands together, in a handfasting ceremony, is a Pagan betrothal custom for couples to make a formal promise, a contract, a commitment to one another. Depending on personal wishes, the couple may choose to commit for either a year and a day, a lifetime, or for all of eternity as they jump over the fire or a broomstick.
