Ia Brigid Iao vo he!
Hail to thee, Brigid,
Goddess of Fire in three aspects,
Mental, Metal, Medical!

Goddess of poetry and Craft, Hear Our Prayer;

Goddess of smithcraft, your sacred Cauldron
Brimming red with the molten joy of Life Unconquered, Hearken unto Us;

Goddess of healing and medicine, reawaken the fires of our lives!

Hear now our prayer for Imbolc:

As the seeds of Peace have lain dormant in the earth during dark Winter,
As the seeds of Change have suffered cruel freezing of their native forces,
As the seeds of Healing have been strangled by our internal negativity,
As the seeds of Magick have been suppressed by scarlet tides of ignorant darkness,

Now let the Flame be kindled!
Now let your Life shoot forth!
Now let the Pain recede!
Now let the Ancient Wildness return!
Now let Peace break forth once more in our hearts!

That thy Names and Aspects be made manifest on Gaea, as it has always been,
since before our hallowed ancestors stepped forth into recorded history.

So Mote It Be.

--An Original Prayer by F.D. (Rob Jones, M.D., ex-LtCol, USAF, MC)
