Dionysos I call loud-sounding and divine, inspiring God, a twofold shape is thine: thy various names and attributes I sing, O firstborn, thrice begotten, Bakkheion king.

Earth unfolded her teeming fragrance, and brought forth a plot of plants, to do pleasure to Dionysos. Tangled poles of spreading vine lifted a wide covering laden with clusters of grapes, and shaded the bed with its leaves; a selfgrown arbour of vinery embowered the couch with its rich growth, and many a bunch of purple fruit swayed to and fro above it, under the Cyprian's breezes.

And born in majesty;
Yet hath he mirth
In the joy of the Earth,
And he loveth constantly
Her who brings increase,
The Feeder of Children, Peace.

O Beautiful Gods,
With the fall equinox, we stand in balance before You, as the day and night now stand equal before us.
May we spend this day honoring You in harmony with the seasons.
Dionysos, who lords over the vine and harvest,
Bless our harvest, the fruits of the earth, the wine, and the grain.
Your dance of life and death today have us enchanted.
The dying of the year approaches, but with You, we know new life is promised.
Athena, wise protectoress of our cities,
Guide us through the turning of the year.
As leaves fall and winds grow cold,
May You grant us strength and wisdom as we prepare for the winter ahead.
Demeter, our Earth Mother, who today and for months onward grieves the loss of her daughter,
May Your tears nourish the fields,
As You gift us the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
Persephone, Holy Queen of the Underworld,
Your journey deep into the Earth is upon us.
May Your descent remind us of the mysteries of the soul,
And of the return to light that is yet to come.
Hades, lord of the unseen,
Keeper of the dead and the treasures that lie below,
We acknowledge Your domain,
And the quiet rest that comes.
As with the turning of the seasons in perfect harmony,
we honor You as we pass through our annual death.
Ares, Srong God of strife and battle,
In this season of fading warmth,
May You keep our courage strong and our hearts steadfast,
For the trials that may come with the waning of the Sun.
Hera, blessed Queen of the heavens,
Bless this time of transition with Your grace.
In the gathering of the harvest, may we also gather peace,
In the darkening days, find harmony, order, and comfort.
O mighty Gods, who deserve praise eternal, receive our prayers as the year turns,
We ask You to grant us Your protection and guidance.
I’ve got the funny number again. Funny! Number!

Even now he stands
Close here, and sees all that I suffer.
