Invocation of the divine masculine, yang ennergies, Earth elementals, and ballence of mental/emotional/spiritual planes.
lyrics
Sunshine soak my skin with your radiance
Bless me and caress me with your warm caramel kisses
May I receive, your honey medicine, each time I breathe
Revitalize my cells with your tangerine smells I pray
Great ra!!
Priestess mothers, and guardian fathers,
Elemental sisters, and animal brothers
Our people have been estranged from the original ways
I call on spiritual thunder to clear away this haze
this haze that we’ve been covered bye,
try as we might, we couldn’t see the sky
This haze that we’ve been dancing in
Hiding the medicine beneath our skin
I PRAY GREAT RA, ACTIVATE MY DNA
ASYOUR BODY SETS SHIFTING THE NIGHT INTO DAY
LET ALSO MY FLAME GROW BRIGHT TO ENLIGHTEN,
AND ENLIVEN ALL beings TO THRIVE IN the PRESENCE.
TO DIVE INTO THE HIVE OF THEIR OWN ESSENCE
LET YOUR SEARING HEAT PENETRATE MY WORDS
SO THE MESSAGE I SHARE MAY BE FELT SEEN AND HERD.
Illuminate my vision
To make pure and clear decisions
May the nectar of your light
Cleanse these wings
So I may rise
And sing!!!!
May your beauty shape shift
Through my heart and my eyes
Drip through and melt
All of my old disguises
May the wise old crone penetrate my bones
Turn worries and doubts
Into stardust and sea foam!!
Priestess mothers, and guardian fathers,
Elemental sisters, and animal brothers
Our people have been estranged from the original ways
I call on spiritual thunder to clear away this haze
This haze that we’ve been covered bye,
Try as we might, we couldn’t see the sky
This haze that we’ve been dancing in
Hiding the medicine beneath our skin
I PRAY GREAT RA
