An Imbolc Inspiration and Ritual

An Imbolc Inspiration and Ritual

On this Imbolc after noon with snow upon the ground
With this Gobblet of water in hand
And oak fire burning in the circle
I invoked the Goddess Brigit
An inspiration she gave me to do and write.

I pour a libation in honor
To the Goddesses and Gods,
I pour a libation in prayer
May Peace, Health and Abundance govern the World
I pour a libation of thanksgiving
To the good folk and land of Sweetwood Temenos

As I stand before the altar and pour these libations
I am a man; I am that I am,
Self-aware life energy form spiraling in space
2008 years from the birth of a man
That died witnessing Divinity in humanity

I witness the Divine life spark,
The Self, the seed that manifests the soul
Rooted in a soil of a universe
Where Goddess and God are ways of being
Evolved from mortal life into immortal light

Theirs a Mystery of the communion of souls
With Mind, Body and Heart
Bonded together by awareness in each other
Of sovereignty, equality, friendship and love
That they create such a Bliss

The exalted and profound pleasure of sexual love
From which a tree of life, a cosmos can arise
Where some trees bare fruit and some not
But all are beautiful by day and night
In their sacred groves along the rivers of paradise
