  • Artemis, Baba Yaga, Pachamama and Cernunnos,
    help us connect to the wild places
    - show us all the beauty of all the life there,
    human, animal, plant or mineral,
    help all who touch these places,
    to truly know and care for them,
    for their own innate worth. 

    Brigid, Maeve and Aset,
    inspire and help all those who care for the bush or fight bushfires,
    let them fulfil their duties with passion and inspiration;
    and inspire and heal those tempted to do harm
    to such responsibility and caring
    that they can NOT commit such sacrilege,
    but may Ma’at bring swiftly to justice all who do
    make such sacrilege.

    Nu Kua, bringer of order to chaos,
    bring your ordered way to the wild places;
    let the rains fall and the winds blow when and where they are needed;
    Durga, protector against demons,
    set boundaries on any fires which may occur,
    and protect the wild places from the demon “bushfire”;
    Cerridwen, transform all harm and damage done into growth: death into rebirth.

    Gyhldeptis,
    we call on you to help synthesise all these threads,
    love, responsibility, inspiration, justice;
    ordered rain and wind, protective boundaries, transformation;
    help these many ways become one great whole,
    for the good of all the wild places, and all the wild life.
    throughout this coming bushfire season and beyond.

    Artemis, Baba Yaga, Pachamama, Cernunnos,
    Let us love the wild places;
    Brigid, Maeve, Aset and Ma’at,
    Heal and inspire responsibility and justice;
    Nu Kua, Durga and Cerridwen,
    Tame and bound the demon bushfire;
    Gyhldeptis,
    Bring all this together.

    Kenaz, Nauthiz,
    Tiewaz, Berkana, Mannaz, Wolfsangle, Erda,
    May it all be so.

and all else I should address. 

So mote it be.
