I had this Idea thought that it might be a fun assignment for us all to participate in and knowing that we have a lot of younger members who don't post a lot this might be a good way for you all to let the other coven members get to know you a little bit better and what Deity you honor if any.
Music is a continual part of society and it could be said that it started from the beginning of time, from a rhythmic water splash to a drumming on a rock as to when music was first created to me there is no real answer to that question.
I believe music to be a very important part for the souls growth. Music can express emotions and feelings that sometimes we can find hard to get across in a normal conversation.
Music is good for the soul and theres plenty of genres out there to choose from so have fun while you search for the song you need.
For the assignment what I would like you to do is find a song that you feel embodies your feelings toward your Deity if you honor one, if you don't have a Deity then be creative and choose a song that you can dedicate to a family member, friend either in this world or the otherworld etc, there is no wrong or right for this just let yourself be guided by your higher self, take a moment to meditate on your Deity/Higher self ask for guidance as you look for the song your going to use, when you find a song you think you can work with use the lyrics that are most potent for you and work around them with your own words to make a dedication prayer to your Deity/Other.
Below is my example to my Deity
The song used for this is "Let Love In" by the "Goo Goo Dolls"
"In this hour and in this night I offer my dedication to my
Goddess Raven of the night, you wait, wanting this world
To let you in and stand there a frozen light,
In dark and empty streets, you smile behind a god-given face
But I know you're so much more, you're the only one I ever
Believed in, the end of fear is where we begin the moment
I decided to let you in, I thank you for your guidance and love within."
Also if you feel that your dedication prayer is to personal to post you can post it through a PM is you wish and as an added bonus anyone that participates will earn 5 karma points to their profile account.
Most importantly though is to enjoy doing this so have fun.
Love and Light
