Thank you very much for providing them. I was also wondering: do you have any hymns to Gaia or Hekate?

Unfortunately, the ancient bards of that region did not write their songs in a way that would have preserved them to modern times. Meditating with Cernunnos will bring you closer to Him and then He might help you write hymns for Him. Much of the inspiration for hymns of all Gods comes from the Gods themselves. And may you find His joy in the journey. <strong>Diana:</strong> You're very welcome. Adding your own hymns with those of the Ancients offers a nice sense of connection and continuity with times past, all focused on your gods and goddesses. Thank you for the comment.

The words of ancient authors are very moving. We also write some of our own, and the energy words bring into the ritual is a wonderful offering to the god/dess we are honoring.

I am trying to develop a relationship with Cernunnos. I sit cross-legged before his altar and speak to him, and meditate And occasionally, leave offerings of food. I really and would much write some hymns. I just meditated before my alter, at the moment, attempting to develop my meditations kills, Which I hope with foster greater awareness. I hope to develop a sense of the world around me as well as my own inner reality. Thank's MorningHawnk :) I have yet to write or recite any hymns to the deities.

Would you mind telling how you use hymns in your rituals? Do you use them for calling the Gods, or in a different way? Thanks. Would you mind telling how you use hymns in your rituals?
