"BLESSED ARE WE IN HER MYSTERY
HAIL MIGHTY DEMETER AND SWEET KORE"
INTRODUCTION
CLOSING WORDS

ALL SPEAK
Initiates,
You have been purified,
Anointed, and crowned,
And in these Rites of Consecrations
You have come a part of the Temple of the Goddess Demeter.
May peace reside in your heart.
May the wisdom of the Great Mother be with you
As you follow the changing seasons.

And in the world that shall follow this,
Will the Holy Daughter welcome you
To a land of beauty and light,
As the pure heart reunites with the infinite sprit.

These are the rites of the Lesser Mysteries.
Initiates of Demeter,
The greater Mysteries are now open to you.
Her temple rites complete,
In grace and in joy,
May her blessings proceed unto all!


CLOSING BLESSING

By the Power of Hecate,
Whose magic weaves through the web of the world,

This magic is done.
It finds its mark.
Our visions flourish.
It lives, and blesses our lives.
So, it is woven.
So it is done.
So be it.
