Winter Solstice Gift

Invocation to the East

In beginning, you breathe us aware.
Let your clarity ring through the air.
Be with us.

Invocation to the South

Flame and spark of passion’s power,
Point your fire like a flower.
Be with us.

Invocation to the West

Spirit of water, move free in us,
Rest us and cleanse us to be in us.
Be with us.

Invocation to the North

Come rich dark maker, give us birth
From strength and stone and deepest earth.
Be with us.

Invocation to the Center

Come spiral of outer and inner,
Come magic, come spirit, come spinner.
Be with us.
