Witches Sayings and Pagan Abbreviations

To say hello you can say:

Bright Blessings
or
Merry Meet.

To say goodbye you can say:

Merry Meet, Merry Part And Merry Meet Again.

It basically means: 'Nice to have met you, take care and hope to see you again soon'. This can also be said when talking to God and Goddess at the end of ritual.

Blessed Be.

As the Christians would say, 'God Bless' or 'Amen'. This is said more often than the Christian Amen. It can be said sometimes at the end of Rituals, Spells or even used to end an email to a fellow Wiccan friend!

Im going to Circle.

As Christians would say, 'Im going to church' (Taking part in a ritual of their faith) Wiccans say 'I'm going to circle'. They mean the same thing.

In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust.

You give/take/send whatever your subject or objective maybe, with Perfect Love and Trust. This saying can be used when doing Magick or used in a Ritual.

Blessed Be.

As the Christians would say, 'God Bless' or 'Amen'. It is sometimes said at the end of Rituals, Spells.

So Mote It Be.

Sometimes said at the end of spells. It confirms what you have said in your spell, 'so it shall be'

As I Will It, So Shall It Be.

Basically the same thing: you are stressing that what you just did will really happen.

Merry Meet, Merry Part And Merry Meet Again.

Although this simply means 'Nice to have met you, take care and hope to see you again soon' it can also be used to close a ritual by taking leave of the God and Goddess at the end.

As Above And So Below is a variation on the old Hermetic Axiom 'As above, so below'. The original meaning is that everything is connected and what happens below is reflected in the stars (astrology) and vice versa.

In Wicca it means everything is in balance and you would not want it any other way.

You would close and email with the following abbreviations to shorten the greetings

BB : Brightest Blessings or Blessed Be
MM: Merry Meet
MMA: Merry Meet Again
