I am a fire of frith. My powers are peace, warmth and wellbeing, love, comfort and care. I am transformation.
The more you kindle me, the more fuel I gain, the brighter I will burn. Know that also your troubles fuel me. Come to me and share your concerns, let me in on your fears or fatique, confusion or grief or pain or sadness. Discharge your burdens upon me so I can turn troubles into what you and the world need, like faith and frith, safety and solidarity, content and calmness.
Come to me when you need to reconnect to harmony, come to me for balance. Come to the frith garth to empower me, the Flame of Frith, in your own unique way and I will empower you! In return you will bring back feelings of frith, love, kindness, playfulness, courage, resilience and laughter in your heart and thus into Midgard!
All hail to the Flame of Frith
Hail to the frith garth!
All hail to peace-keepers!
Hail to frith-weavers!
Hail to all standing side by side
for Mother Earth and all living being,
for safety and solidarity,
for community connection,
and fruitful frith for all!
Take a deep breath and let daily thoughts be…
Envision…
Seeing a river lingering yonder… the water flows slow and the surface sparkles with the sun…
Smelling the scents of the earth itself… hearing the singing of birds… feeling warmth of the sun touch your skin…
Seeing all the colours of the rainbow in wild flowers…
hearing the wind rustle through the swaying reed along the riverbanks…smelling the water…
Envision…
Right before your feet trodden grass towards the river… looking up and seeing a path running alongside the river…
to walk down this path… and let it carry you away…
Envision…
The river bending like a sickle… part of a circle… the other half woodland on the riverside…
Seeing oak, beach, willow, birch, rowan, elderberry, elm yew, ash, lime, apple…
Walking through trees and shrubs over crackling withered leaves into the frithgarth…
Fires flaring in a clearing… the biggest one in the middle, the Flame of Frith itself…
The flames welcoming you with open arms…
Envision…
Feeling the beat of the drums… to hear voices singing… to see frith weavers dancing…
Finding yourself a place to feel safe… like in a hollow of an old tree…
between the swaying reeds… on a bench next to one of the smaller fires…
or joining the circle of people and spirits fuelling the Flame of Frith with drumming… singing… dancing… offering…
Know…
Frith keepers always will welcome you in our frith garth… anytime you need the Flame of Frith… every time you would like to fuel yourself or the frith fire…
Envision…
Inviting other beings in spirit to the frith garth and to offer them healing or company, harmony or connection…
All your (overwhelming) burdens, like pain, fear, anxiety, grief, loss or loneliness to flow into the fire… being fuel and to light up the flames…
Envision…
The magic of fire transforming troubles into fuel… from fuel into flames…
From flames into healing smoke of care and calmness…
Persistence and peace of mind, warmth and well-being…
The Flame of Frith to fuel our passion to fight for the earth…
Our desire to commit to climate justice, social justice and intergenerational justice…
Envision…
Trees rooted down deep in the ground, helping us delve into the other worlds…
for knowledge… awareness… for courage… resilience… creativity…
and balance for our Mother Earth…
Winds carrying all this billowing in all directions… flowing with the water…
Sparking the hearts of people with love and care for all living beings…
Know…
Every time you pray, every time you hold a frith cord in your hands, every time you kindle a frith candle,
every time you visit the frith garth you fuel the Flame of Frith to flare and burn even more brightly.
May our thoughts and deeds
be a loving contribution
for the earth and all living beings.
May our thoughts and deeds
be a loving contribution
for generations yet to come.
Hail to all and be safe!
