Hestia Devotional - Lighting the Sacred Flame

The following video is of the devotional I perform each morning when lighting Hestia's Sacred Flame for the hearth shrine.

 

Samhain Ritual 2025

 

Vetrans' Prayer

 You who heard it in the day's bright light,

You who heard it and took on the blight.

You who heard it in the dead of night,

You who heard it and took up the fight.

Athena bless and hold you tight,

You who are warriors of the just and right.

You who heard when duty called,

You who selflessly give it you all.

Athena bless and hold you tight,

You who were given a warriors might.

Rest their hearts and rest their souls,

For this call has taken a toll.

Blessed Athena make them whole,

Bring them home and back into the fold.

Prayer to Pan

 Soft foot falls echoing through the forests,

Thundering foot falls sounding in the meadows,

As the wind whispers of long forgot pipe songs through the air.

Blessed goat footed shephard,

Tender of the flocks that roam the lands,

Hear my call Great Horned one and come near to me.

Wild son of fleet footed Hermes,

Child of the Great Mother Ge,

Hear my call Great Horned one and play your pipes for me.

Great God Pan, lover of Nature Spirits,

I call unto you to come near to me,

Fill my life with your song and adventures of the wild.

Accpet the gifts of milk and honey,

Of water from the Sacred Springs,

And of olive oil, the blessed gift of Athena.

Prayer to Asclepius

 

Oh blessed son of Apollo, far shooter,
Student of the great Kheiron, Healer of the sick,
I call to you.
Blessed mortal son of Koronis,
Life giver of the dead,
I call to you.

Glorious Asclepius, you who were set among the stars,
Who was raised from death itself to the life of a god,
I call to you.

Accept these humble offerings of oil and incense,
Accept these offerings and be near to me!
