Khaire Hekate Brimo!

Brimo! Angry One! Terrifying One!

You arrive with enraged serpents hissing, winding their way through Your hair! The very earth shakes as You storm Your way up from the deepest caverns! Your hounds howl and announce that You are the most fearsome predator!

Why do I welcome You? Is it a greeting meant to appease You, hoping that You will pass by and take Your rage somewhere else? No!

I welcome You because I welcome all that You have been, all that You are, and all that You will be.

I welcome You because You know my own pain, rage, and grief.

I welcome You because those who have caused such rage do not deserve whatever protection I might be able to give to them.

In Your greatest rage, You are the storm we know is coming. The Furies race alongside You, ready to hit Your target with destruction. I welcome Tisiphone! I welcome Alecto! I welcome Megaera! I welcome You, Mighty Hekate Brimo!

I know what it is that I am saying when I welcome such terrifying beings. I do not speak these words lightly. I know the power, and the possibilities. I also know Your terrifying rage is not brought into play without good reason.

Khaire Hekate Brimo!

I had so little to offer then. So little space to offer it in. You led me out of something I don't even have words for, and into...a very different something I don't have words for. How could I not devote space to you? How could I not give what little I had to You when You gave so much to me?

Khaire Hekate Einalia!

Glorious Hekate Einalia, Empress of the Dark Seas! It is World Ocean Day. I thank You for Your presence in my life as the Lake Monster, and more recently as Mother Hydra. I thank You for the alligator who followed the boat. I thank You for the lakes, rivers, and beaches. I thank You for humpback whales. I thank You for the turtles. I thank You for baths, showers, swimming pools, and glasses of water to drink. I thank You for rainy days and thriving plants. I thank You for the aquatic entry to other realms. I thank You for Your presence in everything that exists in our physical world, as well as the many ways water exists in other worlds. Khaire Hekate Einalia! Praise Lake Monster! Iä Mother Hydra!
