  1. Goddess Of the twilight skies between night and day
    Let your light shine upon us
    Though it be only for minutes each day
    Allow us the grace of knowing you
    Great Goddess of the dawn
    Great Goddess of the Dusk
    Daughter of the light high above
    Ushering in the age of light
    Where once there was darkness

    Hausos
    Eos
    Aurora
    Ushas
    Aušrinė

    By many names have you been known
    By many names praised and worshiped
    From the earliest days of our kind
    Until the very end of us
    We mortal beings that dwell upon the earth
    In gratitude and joy of the short time given us
    When the dark below welcomes the last of us
    Into the sunless world of death
    Where we shall never know light or thought again

  4. O Holy Dionysus

    Of the ivy and the vine

    I ask for your presence

    I ask for your blessings

    Lord of ecstatic revelation

    Lord of the altered mind



    Show me the world as it truly is

    Allow me to see the truth

    For in your presence I will dance

    Wild and abandoning reason



    And for the world I ask a boon

    Show them the hurt they cause

    Let them feel it too

    For in feeling lies compassion



    Show them too the lies they tell

    To others and to themselves

    That they may learn to live truthfully

    And allow others to do the same



    Lord of the vine and the ivy

    Stand with us today

    Walk, perhaps crookedly, along this path with us

    Lord of introspection

    Grant us your gifts

    Walk with us as we navigate life, O holy Dionysus

  5. Goddess looking away
    In three directions you watch
    Guarding the pathways leading to you
    Keeping a light on the pathways leading away

    Bearing torches that light the ways
    Bearing keys that open the gates
    Bearing the serpent of chthonic prophecy
    Bearing the blade of holy sacrifice

    Goddess in dark days
    When the moon is at its darkest
    And the stars shine brightly
    The light you bring grants hope

    Goddess accompanied by many
    The saddened dead who follow you
    The dogs that bark lively in the night
    Along the path to the world below

    Goddess at the boundaries of life
    Passing forth between the dead and living
    Passing from day to night
    Passing through the threshold while protecting it

    Bearing torches of divine flame
    Bearing the keys to heart and home
    Bearing the serpents as on Medusa’s head
    Bearing the blade of sacred protection

    Hecate Trioditis guide me!
    Hecate Ennodia guard my choices!
    Hecate Chthonia grant me a good life!
    Hecate Soteira guard me from myself!

  6. Blessed Rhea
    Daughter of Ge
    Mother of the Gods
    Bless my home

    That no evil may enter
    Neither intended or not
    To bring chaos and destruction

    Blessed Rhea
    Daughter of Kronos
    Shaper of the Omphalos
    Protect those I love

    That no evil may touch them
    Neither intended or not
    To bring pain and sorrow to their lives

    Blessed Rhea
    Cybele of the East
    Mother of the thunder and the storm
    Bless us one and all

    That no evil may influence us
    Neither intended or not
    To cause us to do evil to others

    Blessed Rhea
    Great Mother
    Sorrowful wife of Kronos
    Bless the world

    That no evil may flourish here
    Neither intended or not
    That will further bring us to the brink of destruction
