Birth naming ceremony:
Mother. This is your Godly child. Look upon him, name her, that s/he may have life well set before ______.
Children's Blessing:
Take sprigs of vervain & angelica, bless in fires smoke, brush each tiny foot, repeating:
Gunnora, Lady who protects women & innocents born of women, guard this child. Let not his feet carry him near the Shadow, rather let him walk in the Light in all times, & all ways.
Touch to each hand, repeating: Let these hands work in service of Truth & Light & Life.
Brush the head: Let this mind remain clear & untainted. Grant him the strength to naysay any thought born of Dark.
So may it be always by thy will.
