Triple Goddess Brighid, Maiden Bride, Great Queen, Enchantress, we would awaken our souls to commune with the World of Spirits. For we know that inevitably we journey to that land where dwell those who have passed through the Veil to the Great Unknown. Draw us to Thy Haven of everlasting joy and goodness.  

 The division betwen these two worlds is only in your mind. In verity you travel to other spheres while your body sleeps. It is only at dawn and at twilight, at Bealtaine and Samhain, that the veil is drawn aside for those who seek greater consciousness. All spheres form part of one mighty spiral of Time travelling through Space. Consciousness expands with size. The Magi learn the art of ascending and descending the spiral not by a journey round the rim through repeated rebirth, but through entering the very hub of the Cosmic Spiral. There, centered in all-pervading Deity they may experience all spheres at will.
It is I Who bestow on newly arrived souls the waters of baptism which bring wisdom and inspiration. It is My fiery Wheel that enflames creative artists, all those who would transform this world for greater good. And at last with a touch of my serpent wand I draw the soul away from material existence through the Dolmen Gateway to the world beyond the grave.
