May our
Mercuries join
in communion of knowledge.
May we see Venus, the beauty in others
but have Mars handy when it’s time for action.
May Jupiter rise
to make our time together fun
and to keep us ever-thirsty to learn.
May Saturn give us
enough organization
to keep us on track
without stifling our creativity.
May Chiron bring us
healing and wholeness
if we stumble onto the broken parts
of ourselves
and in the pain discover a catalyst for fulfillment.
Uranus, patron saint!
May you keep us excited, engaged,
a-buzz
and alive.
Neptune, source
of inspiration,
compassion and
unity:
Help us share our visions and
emotions
to listen with sensitivity
to join our creativity
to see ourselves in each
other.
Pluto, Lord God of the
Underworld:
help us remember that Darth Vader
was once a Jedi Knight
as we all are inside.
May we be one Sun in our time together
shining enlightenment
experiencing the alchemy and paradox
that only by being our unique selves
do we create community.
