As the quarters were called, both oracles felt the raw strength of each element.
As the opening prayers were given, Hekate's Ladys speech began to change. The prayers were more of a conversation had by different souls in distress. She then fell to the floor and these were the words she received:
"We brought this bounty to you
We taught you how to use this bounty
Men used to honor the bounty
Carve images of the bounty in thanks for its crops
They revered animal, plant, and minerals
We need to fight for farms and farmers
We need to control our own food
So many need food on their plate
Be grateful and humble for what you have
Those that are not helping by working is angering
Food has to travel so far to be distributed
Especially during this turn of the wheel
The first harvest to be sown"
Hekate's Lady saw herself fall halfway into a rabbit hole, where she could see the roots of many crops - the sadness of knowing so much food is wasted weighed heavy on her heart
Both went to take a break but Aphrodite's Bee was overcome and Hekate's Lady held her arm as she saw appear before her. These are the words she received:
"Are you not my children?
Do I not feed you?
For eons mankind has called to me
I am a Mother Goddess
The bones of you ancestors are buried within the Earth, which is a part of me
All my children are a part of me and I feed them
If mankind does what he wants to do with food
All I can do is supply
I will always be there if you call on me
Even for those who don't follow me
You can pray for them
I will help them"
After a lengthy rest, they resumed the ritual and finished with love in their hearts.
