Creiddylad Bless These Seeds

Creiddylad Goddess of Spring
bless these precious seeds,
seedlings yearning to show.
Bless these precious embryos.

Creiddylad Goddess so green, 
bless these precious seeds
so like our deepest dreams
from Annwn they will grow.

A prayer to Creiddylad for the blessing of seeds at sowing time in Creiddylad’s Garden. This year I’m growing salad and herbs including lettuce, spinach, parsley, coriander and chamomile and wild and cultivated flowers for pollinators such as cornflowers, poppies, foxgloves, vervain, calendula and dianthus. Some for pots and troughs and others to join the ox-eye daisies, ragged robin, pink campion and others in my wildflower patch.

I Plant these Seeds

I plant these seeds for better days.
Amaethon, Modron hear my words.
By this full moon I sow and pray
from Annwn they will rise to birth.

I plant these seeds for better days.
Divine Mother, Ploughman who hold
in earth’s row and runnel our fate
bring life from darkness green and bold.

I plant these seeds for better days.
Great She Who Gives and He Who Toils
be kind to us although we’ve strayed
and bring our harvest from the soil.

I plant these seeds for better days.
God and Goddess of Earth’s Furrow
from which these new lives wait to wake
I pray that we will see them grow.
