The 13 Affirmations Of An Australian Druid

1. I honor the energy of TEA TREE, for death and a new beginning. I am able to change myself as I so will it. So mote it be!

2. I honor the energy of BOTTLEBRUSH for protection against dark enchantments, for banishing all that is wrong in my life, or drifting upon the tide of energies around me, for cleansings and renewing my energies. I will not imprison myself with the chains of past failures. So mote it be! 

 3. I honor the energy of MELALEUCA, for the protection of my inner oracle, intuition and knowledge. I will listen to The Voice of The Great Goddess within and believe in myself. So mote it be!

4. I honor the energy of SHE OAK , for the lunar rhythms within me as a woman. I will recognize and heed my own body's cycles, take knowledge in myself that I am my own temple, and I shall forever ground myself with the application of intellect and strength. To listen to the voices of our ancestors and spirits around us. So mote it be! (Man's version: "I honor the energy of SHE OAK , for the rhythms of passion that dwell within me as a man. I will recognize and heed my own body's needs,  and grounded application of intellect and strength. To listen to the voices of our ancestors and spirits around us. So mote it be!)

5. I honor the energy of MOUNTAIN ASH, the Witches Wand, our blessed pinnacle of focus and pure intent, for all including justice. I will remember our axiom: "As Above, So Below" - and that I too, play a part in the larger scheme of things, to honor all that is above, below and between. I will link my inner and outer worlds and protect all, within and without. So mote it be!
