Hora Ortiva - Companion Birch, Cardinal of Spirit
In the light of the rising sun, the Grove of Muir Crìoch awakens.
I begin this Hour with an offering of gratitude to Companion Willow, Cardinal of Water.
“Thank you for your watch over the Hora Nocturna, the blessings you have given, and the protection you have bestowed upon the Grove.”
As my offering is acknowledged, a well worn path reveals itself. Following where it leads, I come upon Companion Birch, the Cardinal of Spirit. As I draw near, a seat formed by their ancient roots emerges and invites me to pause in this moment.
Held in this embrace, I turn to Mother Earth, and sink into the communion that underlies all things. With her nature in my heart, I meet her breath with prayer as her breath meets with mine.
“As I inhale what sustains me, may your lessons teach me to embrace the cycles of life. As I exhale what is no longer mine to carry, may I find strength in your shadows, and truth in your creation.”
As this prayer echoes through the Grove, I continue on a deepening journey inward, and step into the observance of this Hour.
¨In this sacred frithgeard I stand before you, Companion Birch, to witness the turning of the Hora Ortiva.”
¨O Cardinal of Spirit, may your grace guide me with the blessings of vitality, continuity, and trust. Stand alongside me in the vastness of the Grove as I discover the universe within.”
The ancient roots return to the land. The ringing of the bell completes the circle. The Grove and the world are one.
“Hail Mother Earth! Hail Companion Birch! As Anachoreta Nemora, I honor you all. Awen!”
Hora Matutina - Companion Oak, Cardinal of Earth
The sun shines brightly in the Grove of Muir Crìoch as the morning stretches towards noon.
I begin this Hour with an offering of gratitude to Companion Birch, Cardinal of Spirit.
“Thank you for your watch over the Hora Ortiva, the blessings you have given, and the protection you have bestowed upon the Grove.”
As my offering is acknowledged, the well worn path reappears. Following again where it leads, I now come upon Companion Oak, the Cardinal of Earth. As I draw near, a seat formed by their ancient roots emerges and invites me to pause in this moment.
Held in this embrace, I turn to Mother Earth, and sink into the communion that underlies all things. With her nature in my heart, I meet her breath with prayer as her breath meets with mine.
“As I inhale what sustains me, may your patience teach me to stand with courage. As I exhale what is no longer mine to carry, may I be rooted in faith, and unmoved by passing storms.”
As this prayer echoes through the Grove, I continue on a deepening journey inward, and step into the observance of this Hour.
¨In this sacred frithgeard I stand before you, Companion Oak, to witness the turning of the Hora Matutina.”
¨O Cardinal of Earth, may your steadiness guide me with the blessings of wisdom, composure, and stability. Stand alongside me in the vastness of the Grove as I discover the universe within.”
The ancient roots return to the land. The ringing of the bell completes the circle. The Grove and the world are one.

As this prayer echoes through the Grove, I continue on a deepening journey inward, and step into the observance of this Hour.
¨In this sacred frithgeard I stand before you, Companion Maple, to witness the turning of the Hora Meridiana.”
¨O Cardinal of Fire, may your spark guide me with the blessings of purpose, inspiration, and curiosity. Stand alongside me in the vastness of the Grove as I discover the universe within.”

It has been a while since I have posted to my blog. There have been a lot of things going on in my life that have left me depleted, so I haven’t really been inspired to write.
The metaphorical skies are starting to clear just a bit, so I am finally ready to make my way back. If you follow me on social media you may have noticed a change to my bio. When I first began the blog, I was a devotee of Hades, which was what I needed at the time, but in this new chapter of my life I have been experiencing a deeper call to honor Mother Earth with my liturgical practice.
Today, I will be sharing a new version of the litany that I have been observing and over the next coming weeks (or months) I will be publishing a series of blog posts on how this form came to be.
You will see some familiar elements from the Hades litany, but there is also a different feel with the version that honors Mother Earth. If you are familiar with the writings of Thomas Berry, you will probably recognize his influence as I have tried my best to capture his concept of indscendence with my words and imagery.
I hope you find something here that speaks to you the way it speaks to me, and thank you for joining me along this well worn path.

The monastery was a medieval precursor to the modern adult content house. Monks would share a living space, food, and more often than not the pleasures of the flesh in much the same way that adult stars cohabitate today.
But wait, now you can download a whole Gothic monastery and 3-D print it. You can also order some coffee because these monks sell several varieties.
