I call upon the Spirits of Ancient Air. Of our voices singing out in prayer and protest. The Spirit of Divine Justice. The Spirit of Oral Tradition. The sacred passing of wisdom from one generation to the next. The Spirit of Sacred smoke, divine illusions, of the mirrors we are to one another.

I call upon the Spirits of the Ancient Fire. The Spirits of Creation themselves. The Spirits of our desire to create a more tender, empathetic, holistic world. The Spirits of our ancestral rage. The Spirit of taking the torch to the institutions created by White Supremacy, built on the backs of Black and Brown people. The Spirit of the Phoenix that rises from the ashes where the empire falls. The Spirit of Our Inspired Co-creation of the New World.

I call upon the Spirits of the Ancient Water. Salty, sweet, flowing and still. The Spirits of gentle healing and deep clearing. The Spirits of fluidity between all dimensions of existence. The Spirits of submergence into the dark womb of wisdom and truth.

I call upon the Spirits of the Ancient Earth. The Spirits of fertility of the mind, body and spirit. The Spirits of abundance of inspiration, abundance blessings, abundance of love. The Spirits of Community Organizing and Community Care. The Spirits of Communion with nature, with our bodies, with one another.

Amen.

I call upon the Spirit of Cups, of Water, of Purification, of Birth and Rebirth, of the Sacred Mother Goddess in all of their many Forms.

I call upon  the Spirit of Wands, of Fire, of Sacred Truth, of Intention, Inspiration and Desire, of Creative and Inspired Sexuality, of the Divine Source of All Creation

I call upon  the Spirit of Swords, of Air, of Our Voices, of Truth, of Wisdom, Clarity, and Divine Justice

I call upon  the Spirit of Pentacles, of Earth, of Balance and Equity, of Abundance for all of God’s Children, of Our Human Form, Our Home, Our Communities, Our Families, Our Earthly Identities.

And the Spirit of the Ether, the unknown and unseen, the liminal, the mystical, the mysterious.

We ask in gratitude and reverence through the power of the elements, that the good and well guides, spirits and ancestors, known and unknown may be with us now.

Bless us, and protect. Especially you, our guardian angels and protective spirits. Keep us out of sight, mind and reach of those who would do us harm, intentionally or otherwise.

Allow us to be clear channels of your divine truth, wisdom, clarity and guidance. May they lead us in these truths, through both the shadows and the light.

May our guardian angels, with whom we entrust our lives, wrap their wings around us and grant us a safe journey through the veil and back again.

Amen.

This prayer is based on an original prayer by Chiron Armand. I have adjusted some of the language to make sense for my spirits and my practice. You are welcome to do the same or work with the prayer as-is.

From the East, who connects us to our mental acuity, I call in the Element of Air and the Good Medicine, Blessing, and Protection that come from the East. Welcome. I ask that you help me to create a good strong container for Truth, Clarity, Wisdom and Protection today. Welcome Good Medicine that comes from the East!

[take a moment to check in and listen to the East. Listen for any requests, messages, needs, or wisdom that may come through]

“From the South, who connects us to our passion, creativity, sensuality, and sexuality, I call in the Element of Fire and the Good Medicine, Blessing, and Protection that come from the South. Welcome! I ask that you help me to create a good strong container for Truth, Clarity, Wisdom and Protection today. Welcome Good Medicine that comes from the South!”

[take a moment to check in and listen to the South. Listen for any requests, messages, needs, or wisdom that may come through]

“From the West, who connects us to our emotions,the dreamworld, the dead, and fluidity, I call in the Element of Water and the Good Medicine, Blessing, and Protection that come from the West. Welcome! I ask that you help me to create a good strong container for Truth, Clarity, Wisdom and Protection today. Welcome Good Medicine that comes from the West!”

[take a moment to check in and listen to the West. Listen for any requests, messages, needs, or wisdom that may come through]

“From the North, who connects us to our physicality, the material world, resources, and cultivation, I call in the Element of Earth and the Good Medicine, Blessing, and Protection that come from the North. Welcome! I ask that you help me to create a good strong container for Truth, Clarity, Wisdom, and Protection today. Welcome Good Medicine that comes from the North”

[for the next portion, visualize the lights that come from above and below as you call them in. watch as the golden light enters through your crown, moves through your central channel (the straight line that travels from crown to perineum), and plunges into the earth, connecting to her center, a liquidy, silver sphere. watch as the silver light moves up through the soil, through your central channel, stretching high into the heavens.]

I now draw down golden light from Creator, down through my central channels into the center of the Earth. I welcome this golden light as it neutralizes all that does not serve me in this moment.
Thank you Creator for Your great dreaming and for Our lives.

I now draw up silver light from Earth through central channel, stretching high into the heavens. I welcome this silver light as it neutralizes all that does not serve me in this moment.

Thank You Great Above and Great Below.

[Bring attention to the center of the belly. Rest your hand on your heart. Breathe deeply and listen to the Seventh Direction, which is You, Here Now. Listen to the intuitive, divine voice within you. Notice what part of your body they speak from.]

I thank Myself for rising this morning. For meeting this day, it’s challenges, and it’s blessings.
