HANDFASTING MATE BONDING MAGICKS
A handfasting is a wedding or betrothal ceremony, and to be handfasted is equivalent to being married or betrothed.
In the Middle Ages, handfasting-type rituals became popularly used as betrothal rituals. In some parts of Europe, such as Scotland, the word “handfasting” was used to say that a couple was engaged. It was more common to hear that a couple was “handfasted” than “betrothed.”
These types of self-uniting marriage traditions lasted well into the colonial era, when settlers in the New World faced difficulties due to long distances and lack of resources. It was only two hundred years ago that nations began to pass legislation requiring couples to be legally wed via a specific set of rules. In fact, in some parts of the world, self-uniting ceremonies are still perfectly valid and legal.
As modern Witches began to truly grow in the early-to-mid 20th century, they sought marriage rituals that had historical significance without strong ties to other religions. Two fit the bill: the tying of hands in the handfasting tradition, and some adding the tradition jumping of the broom.
A handfasting can be several things, depending on the couple's wishes. It can be a legal marriage. It can be a commitment ceremony for a common law or civil union. It can also be used as a trial marriage for a couple who wish to ease into married life or it can be a formal betrothal.
