Winter Solstice Prayer Chant
On this longest, sacred night,
I stand within the dark made bright.
The Sun has fallen, yet not gone,
For from the womb of night-reborn.
Ancient Mother, ancient Flame,
Keeper of time, remember my name.
From frozen earth and silent sky,
Let seeds of hope now stir and rise.
I honor rest, I honor release,
The endings that have brought me peace.
What no longer serves, I lay to rest,
Returned to soil, spirit blessed.
From shadowed depths, my strength I claim,
I walk unbroken through the flame.
Though night is long, my light is sure,
My will is strong, my heart is pure.
Return, O Sun, with gentle fire,
Awaken dreams, renew desire.
Bring warmth to bones, to land, to soul,
Make fractured pieces once again whote.
As wheel turns on, as days grow bright,
I rise renewed from sacred night.
By earth, by star, by flame, by breath—
I choose rebirth, not fear nor death.
So it is sown, so it shall be,
As the light returns to me.
So mote it be.

Blessings dark and deep!
