Calls to the Watchtowers

East

     I call upon the guardians of the Watchtowers of the East, thou gentle sprites and airy sylphs, soaring eagle and sweet butterfly, Eurus, watcher and master of the Eastern wind, be with us in laughter and in thought, bring us the bracing dawn wind and memories of fragrant Spring. I summon and stir your astral winds and call upon thee for thy presence and thy blessing.  Come and be welcome in this our rite. Blessed be.

South

     I call upon the guardians of the Watchtowers of the South, thou leaping salamanders and fiery ones, lion in passion and dragon in power, phoenix arising pure and whole from the flame, Notus, watcher and master of the South wind, be with us in passion and in truth, bring us the warmth of the hearth fire and the summer sun, and the clear sight of noonday light.  I summon and stir your bellowing fires and call upon thee for thy presence and thy blessing.  Come and be welcome in this our rite. Blessed be.

West

     I call upon the guardians of the Watchtowers of the West, thou deep-dwelling undines and swift-flowing naiads, loving dolphin and hidden eel, Zephyrus, watcher and master of the Western wind, be with us in feeling and in vision, in the evening tide's mystery and the upwelling autumn dreams. I summon and stir your cycling tides and call upon thee for thy presence and thy blessing.  Come and be welcome in this our rite. Blessed be.

North

     I call upon the guardians of the Watchtowers of the North, thou Earth Gnomes of within and oreads of the mountain forest, bear, slow and sure, and bull of great strength, tunneling worms whose work nourishes life.  Boreas, watcher and master of the north wind and ruler of all winds, dwell here with us in this place of the gods, be with us in solid strength and permanence, giving us sure knowledge of nature's continuing cycles, the safe womb of night and the slow movement of winter.  I summon and stir your enduring strength and call upon thee for thy presence and thy blessing.   Come and be welcome here in this our rite. Blessed be.
