Circle of Refraction

(Verse 1)

The hour descends, the shadows lengthen deep

A chilling breath, secrets they keep

Floor swept clean, intention in my hand

To carve a space, upon this hallowed land

(Chorus)

Circle of Refraction, shimmering bright

Warding off the darkness, banishing the night

Prismatic shields, a barrier unseen

Protecting this haven, serene and keen

(Verse 2)

Salt and water, blessed and pure I spill

Marking the boundary, against the ill

Four corners anchored, with Earth, Wind, Fire, Wave

Forces ancient, power to save

(Chorus)

Circle of Refraction, shimmering bright

Warding off the darkness, banishing the night

Prismatic shields, a barrier unseen

Protecting this haven, serene and keen

(Bridge 1)

Oh, Radiant One, light divine,

Lend your strength, let your power entwine

With this sacred circle, built against the fear,

Let your blinding glory, forever be near.

(Bridge 1)

Gaea/Mother Earth, ancient and strong and true,

Roots run deep in all that we do

Protect this circle with stone, vine, and root

Let your power rise to banish the loot

(Bridge 1)

Selene/Luna, a soft light in the night

The moon's reflection the ritual's might

Through the shadows let your grace impart,

Give us strength and guard the hearth's heart.

(Verse 3)

Incense burning, smoke curls to the sky

Chanting whispers, as the moments fly

Each word a weapon, honed with focused will

To bend the malice, and keep it standing still

(Chorus)

Circle of Refraction, shimmering bright

Warding off the darkness, banishing the night

Prismatic shields, a barrier unseen

Protecting this haven, serene and keen

(Outro)

The circle holds, the power takes its hold

The darkness falters, its story left untold

Watched and guarded, the space will remain

Until the dawn breaks and the light returns again.
