We call upon the energies of the East,
elements of air and intellect.
Bless us with your cleansing breath,
quicken our thinking, blow away our cares.
We welcome you into our circle.
Blessed be.
We call upon the energies of the South
elements of fire and passion.
Burn away what we no longer need,
light our inner fires, strengthen our will to act.
We welcome you into our circle.
Blessed be.
We call upon the energies of the West,
elements of water and emotion.
Wash us clean of negativity,
deepen our compassion, let love flow through us.
We welcome you into our circle.
Blessed be.
We call upon the energies of the North,
elements of earth and stability.
Ground us in our daily lives,
build our endurance, empower us to nurture and give.
We welcome you into our circle.
Blessed be.
We call upon the energies of the Center,
the divine spark that is the source of our being.
Open our eyes to see the Goddess within and without,
in the faces of others, and in our own in the mirror.
We welcome you into our circle, where you have always been.
Blessed be.
