Hail to the seed moon,
round in fullness and fertility.
Lend your power here to my actions as I leave my pet to you!
O winds that carry wild calls
From eastern watchtowers' echoing halls
Come stand at circle here and bless
and welcome now my friend and pet
As Checkie Comes to you in Summerland
O fires that stir the seasons changes
From southern watchtowers flickering ranges
Come stand at circle here and bless
and welcome now my friend and pet
As Checkie Comes to you in Summerland
O rivers that mix the earth and sky
From western watchtowers low and high
Come stand at circle here and bless
and welcome now my friend and pet
As Checkie Comes to you in Summerland
O soil that roots and soil that wanders
From nothern watchtowers here do saunter
Come stand at circle here and bless
and welcome now my friend and pet
As Checkie Comes to you in Summerland
Herne, father of the wild things
I call to you
Come look upon your child
That I am leaving to your care
I invoke you, and ask your blessing
that my pet may be comfortable in it’s new home
That he may live in a loving and safe environment.
So mote it be!
Powers of the Wind,

Move my friend kindly, and keep him in your care!
Powers of Fire, I present Checkers to you!
Ease my friend through the transformations of life,

and keep him in your care! I present Checkers to Herne!
