Chants, Mediation, Blessings.....
To Isis:
"You set the orb of heaven spinning around the poles,
You give light to the sun,
You govern the universe,
At your voice the stars move, the seasons recur."
Grateful and welcome is thy coming unto us,
O Great God, thou vanquisher of the hosts of darkness." - Egyptian prayer
Prayer:
Goddess and God
Mother and Father
Earth and Sky
Help us always to see you, and to be with you
In ourselves, and in all things
Blessed be
A general blessing
May the Goddess, who embraces all
Keep you safe, and stay the hand that would harm you;
May the God, who bathes the Earth in light
Wrap his love around you like a dream
A blessing before casting the circle (a nod to Starhawk for the general idea)
Passing the incense over each member in turn......
By air that is her breath
and fire that is her spirit
be one with the Goddess
and one with us all.
Sprinkling salt water over each in turn....
By water that is her blood
and earth that is her body
be one with the Goddess
and one with us all.
A blessing over the food and drink
God of the harvest (Goddess of abundance)
Bless these gifts as you bless us all
Help us to see and remember
The Divine in all that we share
Evening chant to the Goddess
Hail fair Moon
Ruler of night
Guard me and mine
Until the light. (to be said while moon-gazing at night.)
New Moon Chant to Diana
Waxing, waxing, growing, growing
Diana's power is flowing, flowing (repeat)
Evening Chant to the God
Hail fair Sun
Ruler of day
Rise on the morn
To light my way. (to be said while watching sunset.)
