By the earth that is Her body
And by the fire of Her bright spirit
And by the living waters of Her womb...
The circle is cast.
We are between the worlds,
Beyond the bounds of time,
Where night and day,
Birth and death,
Joy and sorrow,
Meet as one.
The fire is lit, the ritual is begun.
In perfect love and perfect trust,
the kiss is passed around the circle...
We thank you
Guardians of the East, Power of air
Guardians of the South, Power of Fire
Guardians of the West, Power of water
Guardians of the North, Power of Earth
For joining in our circle
And we ask for your blessing
As you depart
May there be peace between us
Now and forever.
The circle is open, but unbroken,
may the peace of the Goddess
Go in our hearts,
Merry meet, merry part,
and merry meet again.
Blessed Be.
