Prayer to Fulla

The following prayer was written by Danica Swanson as part of a devotional practice to Fulla, a goddess Who is one of Frigg's Court (Handmaidens). She is associated with abundance, Northern women's mysteries, and respectfully keeping secrets.

It's now used as a semi-regular prayer at Black Stone Sanctuary.


PRAYER TO FULLA

Hail Fulla!
Keeper of the ashen chest
Bearing the jewels of Asgard's Queen,
Adorn us with Your wisdom and abundance.
Teach us to trust in Your guidance.
Keep us true to that spark deep inside ourselves
Even as we fear it is lost.
Teach us to recognize and appreciate
The blessings we enjoy in our everyday lives.
Guardian of secrets and treasures,
Lead us into our own fullness
That we may enrich the lives of others
With fullest and warmest hospitality.
Hail Fulla!
