Litany for the Pandemic

Posted on July 6, 2020 by Hemlcok ShiningCoil

by Juniper Caldera

A Litany is a call an response type prayer, with a repeated response. Please use, share, and modify to fit your own practice.

We call upon our allies in the earth and stars to guide our hands as we wash them. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We call upon our allies to bless the hands of the mask makers. And bless the masks upon our faces. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We ask our allies to show our virology scientists the way toward a vaccine and they are able to see the path to it and achieve it. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We ask our allies to guide scientific thought and collaboration so that a viable and effective vaccine is produced. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We ask the Gods and allies that the medicine needed, treatment and prevention, is accessible to everyone. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We call upon our ancestors who have survived or died in past pandemics change the hearts and minds of those who see this as a hoax so that they may turn toward an understanding of the pandemic and engage in mask wearing and hand washing. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We call upon the decedents to share their vision of a collaborative and community oriented future with us and with those whom are not yet community oriented. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We bless the water protectors, that all water be clean and clear and abundant for washing and drinking.

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We bless the protestors, who fill our streets with the reminder that we are not free until all of us are free. 

//and we all emerge alive and well// 

We bless our beloveds including our selves. That we emerge alive and well. 

//and we all emerge alive and well//
