Blessing One: Earth's Steadfast Grounding

Welcome to the strength and stability of Earth. This morning blessing invites you to root into stillness, drawing nourishment from the ground beneath you.

Welcome into day one of five mornings with the elements.

Celtic blessings for renewal.

Today we walk with earth,

The steady ground beneath our feet.

This morning I rise slowly and place my feet upon the steady ground of earth.

I give thanks for the soil beneath me,

Rich with memory,

Alive with promise,

Holding the bones of my ancestors and the seeds of tomorrow's blossoms.

With every step may I remember I belong here.

I belong as much as the stone and the oak and the river and the bird.

Earth beneath me,

Root me in steadiness today.

When the world sways,

When demands pull at me,

Bring me back to the ground of my being.

Here I am safe.

Here I am held.

Here I am strong.

I walk this day in trust with the earth as my companion.

Blessed be this day of earth beneath my feet.
