At the beginning:
“Spirit of Earth,
Bringer of the mountains and the trees
from the North.
You who offer my food, my home,
and open the doors to the manifest world.
The four-footed beasts, the goat,
and the centaur.
The earth beneath me, the life around me,
and my own sensual body.
Be here this day.
Let darkness and light reside in
balance and harmony.
Welcome spirits of Earth.”
At the end of the ritual:
“Spirit of Earth.
thank you for being here with us this night,
and for offering our homes and our bodies to assist in this work work.
Until we call again,
We bid you hail and farewell”
