Persephone's Descent, collage by Lunaea Weatherstone

Hail Persephone,
Goddess of fire and earth,
Queen of Shadows, Queen of Light!
Flame of the Underworld,
bless me with the serpent's lesson:
to change, to be reborn.
Bless me with laurel
and with pomegranate.
Hold your torches high,
light my path to power.
Blessed be Persephone,
Goddess of deepest wisdom.

Invocation by Lunaea

Persephone, by Katlyn Breene

Proserpina, Pluto's bride, of spirit realms divine,
Guide us through thy underworld and wisdom serpentine.

All life and death through thee doth flow
Infernal queen deep seeds do sow,
That we may dream unfettered flights
and soar within thy starless nights.

All dark shades do thee command
in shadows rich in Hades land.
Now bring us to thy serpent dance
that turning, twining, causes trance.

Proserpina, Pluto's bride, of spirit realms divine,
Guide us through thy underworld and wisdom serpentine
EVOE Proserpina!

Invocation by Katlyn Breene

Evoe: an exclamation of joy, calling to the gods
