I am the beauty of the Green Earth, and the White Moon among the stars, and the mystery of the Waters.  I call unto your Soul: arise and come unto me.  For I am the Soul of Nature who gives life to the Universe: from me all things proceed and unto me all things return.  Beloved of all the Gods and men, let my worship be in the heart. Rejoice, for behold, all acts of Love and Pleasure are my rituals.  Therefore, let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honor and humility, mirth and reverence within you.  And you who think to seek me, know that your seeking and yearning will avail you not, unless you know the Mystery, that if that which you seek you find not within yourself, you will never find it without.  For behold, I have been with you from the beginning, and I am that which is attained at the end of desire.

 ---Third Verse of the Charge of the Goddess
