O Great Goddess, you have freed yourself from the icy prison of winter.
   Now is the greening, when the fragrance of flowers drifts on the breeze.
   This is the beginning.
   Life renews itself by Your magick, the Earth Goddess.
   The God stretches and rises, eager in His youth, and bursting with the promise of summer.

Touch the plant. Connect with its energies and, through it, all nature. Travel inside its leaves and stems through your visualization - from the center of your consciousness out through your arm and fingers and into the plant itself. Explore its inner nature; sense the miraculous processes of life at work within it.

After a time, still touching the plant, say:

   I walk the Earth in friendship, not in dominance.
   Mother Goddess and Father God, instill within me through this plant's warmth
   for all living things.
   Teach me to revere the Earth and all its treasures.
   May I never forget?

Meditate upon the changing of the seasons. Feel the rousing of energies around you in the Earth.

Works of magick, if necessary, may follow.

Celebrate the Simple Feast.

The circle is released.
