A Prayer of Praise to Holy Healers
Hail Mengloth, Jotun Goddess whose hands heal and wisdom preserves health of body, mind, and soul!
Who knows the ways to knit flesh and bone
Who knows the ways to bring vitality and vigor
Who teaches those who listen in the holy arts of healing!
Whose work staunches the blood of wounds
Who guards the lines of the heart so all is kept free from infection
Whose skillful hands knit the skin and flesh that every wound may become a scar
Whose wisdom of herbs and medicine makes every illness become renewed vigor
Thank You for blessing the doctors, nurses, techs, and healers with wisdom, skill, care, and prudence!
Hail Mengloth! Ves ðu heil!

Sigyn Project: Day 23
Thank You, Gentle Lady
You have shown me that holding the bowl
That being the one Who listens
Is Victory when pain is contained
or cast out
Thank You Holy Goddess
You have shown me how hard it is
to hold with quaking hands
Yet to hold still
because it is the right thing
Thank You Blessed Sigyn
You have shown me through others
the depth of love You have
for Your children, for us,
and all who come to You
Thank You Sigyn
For humbling me
For gifting me with Your Presence
though I am not Your child
and for showing me new ways
of love and frith
Hail Sigyn!
Hail, Hail, Hail!
