In the presence of the Lord and Lady, we join together and are one. We are one until the whole circle is joined. Then the participants journey to an ancient clearing around a weathered stone alter where, in times long past, their ancestors honored the Lord and Lady. Priestess invokes the Lord. Priest closes invocations by invoking the Lady.
Priestess begins chant alone, all join in after first time through.
Bard is at center. Hear now the words of the Great Mother who is called Isis, and Freya, and Brigid, and many other names. I am the silence of the sea, and the secret of the standing stones. I am the beauty of the green earth, and the mystery of the stars. I am the Mother of all things, and the soul of nature, who gives life to the universe.
