Day of Nerthus and Wuldorfader Colors: Green and blue Elements: Earth and Air Altar: Lay with a green cloth, and place upon it pots of earth in which has been drawn the runes Feoh, and Berkana, and Jera, and seeds to be planted, and a wooden tray of small cakes marked with the runes Sigil, and Tyr, and Ansuz, and a horn of mead, and a pitcher of rain or snow water. Offerings: Planting seeds. Doing something to clean the earth or air. Daily Meal: Vegetarian, with wholegrain bread and vegetables. Mead and honeyed tea to drink. Invocation to Nerthus and Wuldorfader Great Mother Earth beneath our feet Who gives forth all our sustenance, Who feeds us from your breast, Never let us forget How much we owe Your eternal fertility. Father of Glory above us, You who send the rain To grow your bride's crops High enough to touch your hand, May you be generous to us this year. Earth and Rain, we beg you To move in a joyful dance together And never spend too long apart. (Chant wordlessly as each person digs a hole in the pots of earth, places in a small cake, sprinkles seeds over it, tamps down the earth, waters it, and sends energy into the seeds. Then pass around the horn of mead, drink to Mother Nerthus and Wuldorfader, and pour out the remainder as a libation.)
