A Book of Pagan Prayer
Description
It is you who will be talking to the gods. Be clear. Be careful in how you
pray. Take care how you come before the gods. Give them your best. There are
many reference books on elaborate pagan rituals but never – until now – a
guide to the most basic of practices: prayers and offerings. A Book of Pagan
Prayer provides the pagan community a comprehensive and thoughtful selection
of prayers – and shows readers how they too can create their own. After an
introduction on why to pray, author Ceisiwr Serith explores how to pray
through words, posture, dance, and music. He explains how to prepare for and
compose prayers, how to address and honor the deities, and how to conclude a
prayer. Serith also answers important questions, such as: Why should pagans
pray? Should prayers be spontaneous? What are offerings about? Is all this
just trying to buy the gods off? Gathered from many traditions – including
Celtic, Germanic, Egyptian, Greek, and Zoroastrian – this guide includes
nearly 500 sample prayers organized by purpose: for the family and household;
times of the day, month, and year; life passages; thanksgiving, grace, and
petition; as well as litanies and mantras. Whether offering a blessing,
celebrating new life, safeguarding travel, or honoring the seasons, readers
will discover timeless pagan prayers for worship, spiritual connection, and
personal relationship with the gods. Read more
