Listen to the words of the Great Mother, who of old was called...
Artemis, Astarte, Demeter, Melusine,
Aphrodite, Cerridwen, Diana,
Arianrod, Bridgid, Isis, Hecate
...and many other
names.
I am the beauty of the green Earth and the white Moon,
and the mysteries of the waters. Let my worship be in the heart
that rejoices, or all acts of pleasure are my rituals. Let there be
beauty and strength, power and compassion, mirth and
reverence within you. And you who seek to know me, know that
your seeking and yearning will avail you not, unless you know
the mystery: 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
which is attained at the end of desire.
