Invocation to Frey (Freyr)

Disclaimer: So before I get to the invocation, I should say that I combed the web as I prepared to write these so if a line or two remind you of someone else's, I probably read it as inspiration. This (and my others) are rough drafts. This one is not overly personal (written specifically for me to use) but others are. Feel free to use them, but if you post them on the web, please link back to me.

Hail Lord of the Fields,
the warrior without a weapon,
you who make the grain sprout forth,
and you who falls at harvest;
Every year of your life, death, and rebirth,
just as the earth mirrors you.
Give me a love bound with commitment,
a love bound to the land.
As one must toil for the harvest,
teach me that love is worth working for.
Bless my life with
a land to call my own,
a love to warm me,
through the harshest winter,
and faith in the coming spring
and the bountiful harvest
after a season of work.
Frey,
Witness This!

Invocation to Odin

This (and my others) are rough drafts. This one is not overly personal (written specifically for me to use) but others are. Feel free to use them, but if you post them on the web, please link back to me.

Hail All-Father,
Wise Warrior,
One-Eyed Wanderer,
Come share my food and fire.
Tell me your stories of wisdom,
the secrets your missing eye sees.
Let me feel the love of both book and blade,
 experience fury and joy, 
and heed the tales of my elders.

You who chooses half of the slain, 
look upon my deeds
and when my time comes
Let my end be worthy of song.
Let me understand sacrifice,
remember well, 
and journey far,
Odin 
Witness This!

Invocation to Braggi

So before I get to the invocation, I should say that I combed the web as I prepared to write these so if a line or two remind you of someone else's, I probably read it as inspiration. This (and my others) are rough drafts. This one is not overly personal (written specifically for me to use) but others are. Feel free to use them, but if you post them on the web, please link back to me. As for why I am calling upon Braggi, as the bard of Valhalla, he is a wordsmith, so who better to help me write my blog?

Hail Rune-Tongued Bard,
Keeper of Songs and Stories,
Teller of Tales,
Skald of Valhalla.
Inspire my words;
Grant me your clever wit,
your silver tongue,
and your confidence to share my tale.
Teach me the wisdom of the ages,
and the answers to life's oldest riddles.
Remind me of the the past,
the triumphs and failures,
woven in your songs,
so that one day
I may tell them to the next generation
who need your wisdom.
Braggi,
Witness This!
