Imbolc Evening Prayer

These prayers should be done in the evening, between 3pm and dusk

Opening

"Hail Mother of the golden wheat, You of

plenty and fertile womb, breathe Thy blessing

upon my heart, nourish my soul

that I, too, may create the world with love.

Blessed Be."

Main Prayer

Lady,

An echo of Winter lies

upon the land as earth

is made ready to receive

the seed of rebirth.

Your womb, the dark of earth,

remembers sweet innocence

and the flowering of unnamed days.

You rise majestic from the mist

of the soul

enfolding all in Your bright shadow.

Time becomes a mosaic of images

and promises yet to be fulfilled.

You engender the birth of Spring

and welcome life into the world.

Meditation

Build your temple within your mind; give thanks for new opportunities.

Daily Affirmation

In the Name of the All-Mother: I will remember that I am sacred.

Closing Prayer

"Terra Mater, Mother of all life, I give

Thee thanks for Thy blessing -

the fruit of the vines, the fruit of my spirit;

life's abundance.

Blessed Be."
