Come and Walk with Me..
A moment
in her garden cool... to smell the life
and
feel the joy that is our Mother.....
A
moment for quiet contemplation at a fountain of life....
to
become new again...
The
little ladies name is Emma on a farm in West Virginia...PD image
A moment by the murmuring stream to hear her voice speak....
Stand
a moment in awe, at the trace of our Ladies Presence
In
the world
A moment to stop and let your eyes feast on the beauty of our Mother..
A moment
to stand by the water that is her womb
and
feel the power of Earth..
A moment
to breathe in the mist that is her breath, and revive
with
her hidden treasures
Come
stand with me beside the Mother as Pele..
.....in
her fiery act of creation.....
A moment
to know the wonder of the Mother as Ice Maiden,
on
her long winters slumber..
Reflect
for a moment that even the most humble of things...
can
contain great beauty..
For
a moment, meet the Mistress of Storms,
to
feel the fire in the sky..
..and
know no fear....
Take
a moment to savor the sweetness of life..
.given
even to the creatures of the field...
A moment
to marvel at her creatures creations,
That
we can only try to duplicate...
Delicate
as breath, strong as steel, sparkles like diamonds,
the
lessons to learn are endless....
For
a moment, feel the wonder of her creatures.... Leviathans ...
whose
song fills the ocean..
To
the wonder of living jewels who drink the nectar of life
she
freely provides them...
For
a moment, look into the eyes of the Majestic ones...
.and
see the very depths of your own soul...
As above, so below...even with the Earth it is so.....
Feel for a moment the stark power of the bones of our Mother Earth....
Feel the cool quiet of the depths of the Earth....
And the quiet depths of space and be reminded that She is infinite..
Our Mother in all her Glory
Walk
with me now... to send this power and perfection
Around
this world of Beauty
to
Brighten, Enlighten and make Joyful
Fire
to cleanse the way, a place for the salamanders to play ....
Blessed
cup of water to cleanse the spirit , ancient ones breathe upon this cup
that all who partake of it may justly command the power in the service
of man
The
blessings of the power of Earth to sustain you...
The
blessings of the power of Air to give your will Flight ...
The
wind spites play with the leaves at your feet..
to
remind you that, thou the Will is invisible ..
it
can move the world....
The
blade to draw down the power...and the shield to defend the innocent ....
The
wand of the Witch to wield the power...in the service of man..
The
Book in which to write it all...so that it may Never be forgotten...
These are the tools of the Path...may it ever be trodden by the Wise...

the water of Life rain down to make the closed mind
open
like the Blossoms......
Let
the power of Fire help the leaden of Heart
to
feel alive Again...
Let the Power of the sword cut through Ignorance...
Let
the Shield be raised to defend the helpless
against
those who would oppress them..
Let

Let
the wind carry the sound of our Laughter...
for
this heals the Heart
Let
the Wand of power direct the Power
to
where it is needed Most..
Let
the Power of the printed word Enlighten
the
dark places in the human Soul
All
hail the God , who is the Father
of
the mind,
So
we may understand our world
"I,
Who Am the Sun which warms the body of the Earth,
the
Bounty that sustains your bodies, the Lord of the Hunt, the Power of the
Light,
and
the Secret of the Flame of Life, call upon your bodies
to
arise and come unto Me.
For
I am the generosity of the earth and the flesh of all of its inhabitants.
In
Me all things must die, and, with Me all will be re born.
Let
My worship be in the mind that meditates,
for
all acts of thought and energy are My rituals.
Let
there be Magnificence and Mastery, Capability and Tenderness
Glory
and Humbleness, Merriment and Wonder within you.
For these, too, are part of the Mysteries found within yourself.
In
truly knowing Me, you must recognize that in Me all beginnings end,
and
all endings begin again."
All
Hail the Goddess
who
is the Mother of all of Creation
"I
who am the beauty of the green earth
and
the white moon among the stars
and
the mysteries of the waters,
I
call upon your soul to arise
and
come unto me.
For
I am the soul of nature
that
gives life to the universe.
From
Me all things proceed
and
unto Me they must return.
My
worship be in the heart that rejoices, for behold --
all
acts of love and pleasure are My rituals.
Let
there be Beauty and Strength,
Power
and Compassion,
Honor
and Humility,
Mirth
and Reverence within you.
And
you who seek to know Me,
know
that your seeking
and
yearning will avail you naught,
Unless you know the Mystery:
for
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 that which is attained
at
the End of desire.
Now the circle is Done..."
