This prayer should be done at night, between dusk and dawn.

Opening

"Hail Dark Lady of the Crossroads,
of wisdom hard-won,
grant me Thy blessing, purify my heart,
and teach me the truth of my soul;
show me that death is but the gateway to life.
Blessed Be."

Main Prayer

Lady,
You release Your hold
dark Hecate.
The longest night grows thin
while sleeping earth dreams
of Springtime's warmth.
Visions born in Winter's obscurity bloom,
as does the light.
You release Your hold
dark Hecate;
but always You do speak to
me in dreams...

Meditation

The gifts you have received at this time.

Dream Images

In the Name of the Dark Crone: I will pick a symbol of the season and let it speak to me.

Closing Prayer

"I bow to Thee Hecate, Diana, Mari and thank
Thee for Thy blessing - the Cauldron of Night
full of life, and death, and life again;
Thy magic gives me wings.
Blessed Be."
