Light

Great Mother

True Light
Source of all light
Please listen to my prayer

Let Your light
Enfold me
Protect me
And bathe me
In It's healing love

Let the radiance of Your being
Cast out all darkness from my mind
And bring me to the light of Your wisdom

Please give me
Balance and serenity
To face each trial with courage,
Faith and an open mind.

I pray for
Peace of mind
Light, love and joy
For all

A Prayer of Oneness

I release my isolation to the Stars
Breathing in the Energy that connects all things
Allowing my body to be caressed by Nature

Filling my lungs with eternal Breath
Filling my senses with the joy of Being Alive
Filling my heart with gratitude for this Moment

Finally allowing my Spirit to soar Free
I am a creation of the Universe
Eternal in my Essence

In time . . . when my life wanes
Returning my body to Star Dust
Held in the body of the Great Goddess
I will again be the Energy of Life

Lady's prayer

Mother of heaven and earth
All Your names are holy
You govern the here and now

You rule the course of planets and life
You feed and clothe us

Make us smile about the mistakes we make
And about the mistakes of others

Lead us on the good path
Deliver us from fear and hate

Yours is the love
The power
And the beauty
Always forever

Amen

Blessing of change

Bless this day and all who live it
open my eyes to ways of helping
give my heart over to my humanity
connect my spirit and my powers
spur my best self into action

I bless this day and all who live it
touching one heart spreads joy
sharing freely expands my heart
listening to others opens my mind
respecting others fuels my hope

I belss this day and all who live it
in small ways I am growing wise
in quiet ways I am learning now
in openness my spirit grows strong
in sharing, my life makes sense

I bless this day and all who live it
the essence in you is my essence
knowing our similarities frees me
feeling the sameness at our cores
unites us all as family of billions

I bless this day and all who live it
I reach out in kindness and spirit
you may learn to reach back in time
if I keep true and strong to being
the change I want to see in the world

Bless this day and all who live it

Alternative Lord's Prayer

Eternal Spirit, Earth-maker, Pain-bearer, Life-giver,
Source of all that is and that shall be,
Father and Mother of us all,
Loving God, in whom is heaven:
The hallowing of your name echo through the universe!
The way of your justice be folowed by the peoples of the world!
Your heavenly will be done by all created beings!
Your commonwealth of peace and freedom
sustain our hope and come on earth.
With the bread we need for today, feed us.
In the hurts we absorb from one another, forgive us.
In times of temptation and test, strengthen us.
From trials too great to endure, spare us.
From the grip of all that is evil, free us.
For you reign in the glory of the power that is love,
now and for ever.
Amen

Friendship

You have blessed us, O Lady,
with the gift of friendship,
the bonding of persons
in a circle of love.

We thank you for such a blessing:
for friends who love us,
who share our sorrows,
who laugh with us in celebration,
who bear our pain,
who need us as we need them,
who weep as we weep,
who hold us when words fail,
and who give us the freedom
to be ourselves.

Bless our friends with health,
wholeness, life and love

Being

This day
this hour
this moment
I breathe in life's
eternal energies
my atoms mingle
with all creation

This day
this hour
this moment
I eat other life
sun filled energy
nourishing my atoms
with the life forces
of another that lived
plant, animal, fish, foul
life that was, feeds me now

This day
this hour this moment
I spend my life
energy held, leaves
my atoms flow outward
mingling with all creation
I am in all and all is in me
Bless all life
so mote it be

Blessing over bread

Mother of Plenty, bless this bread
Father of the Grain, lend your seed
Let it nourish heart and head
Let it nourish thought and deed
Let its breaking be a spell
Theat hungry mouth be fed as well
And let its eating keep us free
As is our will
So mote it be

She Who

Great Cosmic Mother
Sacred Life Force in All Things
She Who Creates from Her Own Source
All that is, was, and shall be Mirrors Her

She Who is the Spiraling Galaxies
Alive in the Stars, immenant in All Things
Endlessly becoming, spinning Life into Being
She Who speaks to us through the Wind and the Calm

She Who is Sacred Balance
Spiral Weaver of Truth and Wisdom
Her Sacret Texts are the leaves and Grasses
Everywhere is Her Consecrated Ground

She Who, She Who is Many
The Brilliant Sparks of Her Essence
Pulsing & Alive in each Cell of our Body
The Vibrant Red Sea flowing through us All
Is the Sacred River of She Who is the Spiral Goddess
