Sybil, Oracles of the Goddess
Fellowship of Isis Liturgy by Olivia Robertson
Part III. Cycles of the Year
VIII. THE GODDESS FRIGGA OF THE NORSE-LANDS
Winter Solstice. 21st December -
6th January We Enjoy the Fruit of the Tree of Life
Priestess:
(Invocation) Holy Frigga, Mother Goddess, Whose Consort is the God Odin, we invoke Thy Blessing on Your poor Earth
that we may redeem Her from all the ills we have inflicted upon Her in this cruel iron age.
Oracle: Be of good
heart! An Age of Starry Space has dawned, as was foretold by the Seers of old. As you imagine, so it is. When you fear Ragnarok,
the general destruction of Gods and men - lo it is there, not for the Deities who live forever, but with your earthly lives.
You have as yet no idea of the power of your imaginations! To imagine is to co-create with the Deities. It is through the
Divine Imagination that the galaxies were formed in a swirling of light, and the stars sang and the planets turned about them,
for this was the imagining of the mighty Star Deities.
It is My Will that My children should create. Artists produce works
that show forth the beauty that is inherent in all things, and philosophers through mind make logical systems of thought.
Master Builders produce civilizations, and religious teachers give devotees noble religions.
But the greatest of all creations and the most despised, is the Family.
Mention the family, and the intelligent, the creative, the spiritual, are bored! They feel the Mother was the restriction
which they endured in the womb, from which they were glad to escape into the bright light of incarnation! The Wife suggests
the binding responsibilities of home and children that distract the pilgrim on his quest for eternity. Indeed, in the day
of the Patriarch it was often the practice of seekers for truth to abandon their homes and go forth into the wilderness, there
to seek enlightenment, During the Iron Age the way of the monk and the nun, the scholar and the scientist, was regarded as
the highest and best path to Heaven. Heaven was the mind, the spirit, the alienation from both earth and the family.
But now the time has come, when austere studentship has been achieved,
for humanity to discover the Divine Family. Each of us has a Divine Family, whether they are My Families, the Aesir and the
Vanir, the Family of the Olympian Gods and Goddesses, the Families of Parvati and Lakshmi of India, or your own true peers.
Families do not mean separation, for all beings are akin: by venerating your own mother, you honour all mothers: by loving
your wives and husbands, you respect all lovers. Care for your own children, and you care for the offspring of every creature
throughout the Universe.
Your Spiritual Family will be discovered by you as you tread the Path of the Wise
Ones. Drink deep from the Well of Wisdom, but do not ignore the humble, but rather respect the love within them. Therefore,
be particularly careful when you do find your Spiritual Family that you give even more love and understanding to your earthly
relations and friends! Otherwise you will lose the rainbow bridge with your Spiritual Family, and alienate your earthly friends.
The Tree of Life shines through every Being and creature. It shines through Rainbow Bridges of flowing energy, bringing in
accord the Almighty Deities and the humblest child and horse and bird and plant. Your pilgrimage will bring you at long last
in a spiral from earthly home to Divine Haven. Both are One.
