“Darkening sky, [sun/star]light drain,
I evoke the qualities of rain.
Wide-coursing gale, I give thee warrant;
With rapid wings bring tempest torrent.”
Using your choice of physical tools, recite or sing the following (I wrote it to the tune of “Days in the Sun” from Beauty and the Beast): Weather workers cry When summer’s too hot Fields and rivers dry Where hurricanes rage What’s flooded breaks and dies Please redistribute Thin out the clouds overhead Cause of devastation and dread May the smoke be cleared from the sky Bring rain to see all the fires die Mother Earth is in pain Let us help summon balance again Redistribute the warmth And the healing waters Oh, Elements ‘round me Hear my humble plea I am grateful for you But there are lives to be saved And damage too Undo whatever damage we can Repent and represent our fellow man Wounded Earth, you’re aching Your hand in ours we’re taking (So mote it be) water flowing (So shall it be) balance with sun glowing Weather workers cry May this chaos die Earth, Air, Fire, and Water Harmonize with son and daughter
For those of you looking to help out the PNW and Irma victims and like to include song in your practice, here’s a thoughtful ritual ballad that’s perfectly fitting ☁️💕☁️
We’ve got lots of cloud cover today and I’m praying for rain so whatever you guys have been doing has been helpful.
