Drawing Down the Moon
Candlelight dances across her face
disrobed before the pale moonlight
arms raised up to eternal night
let her voice be heard by gods above.
Burnt offerings upon the altar
pour out the chalice of wine
preparing the sacred anointment
candlelight dances across her face.
As she dances around the fire
within the ancient grove
chants vibrate through her body
disrobed before the pale moonlight.
Athame raised high
symbol of death, transformation, and change
fill her womb pregnant with the moon
arms raised to eternal night.
Vessel of the goddess’ power
blessed upon the Holy Sabbath
she draws down the moon
let her voice be heard by gods above.
