THE NAMES OF PASIPHAE |
In the west they name you Britomartis the Good Maiden
And in the eastern island you are called
by the Moon's name, Dictynna, She of the Fishing Nets
Great Cow, mating with the sky bull, the sun bull
To give this world being in multitude
making of the One the Many
She whose sign is the Double Axe
And Horns
Praise Her
She whose colors are
Red, white, and black
Praise Her
She whose Thousand Faces
Exhaust all possibility
She Whose Plenitude Nourishes
She whose daughter is named
Most High Fruitful Mother of the Barley
To Whom the serpent is sacred, and the dove
Your Priestesses chew the laurel leaf
and see the radiance of Your vulva
Birthing worlds beyond counting
O Pasiphae, Moon Goddess, Queen of the Kheftiu
I praise your Names
