00:00:00.000 so yes absolutely we have i you know i wonder when i read the question yes we pray yes we chant
00:00:13.200 which is my understanding of you know incantation is like a spoken spell or a chanted spell
00:00:21.120 certainly have those talks about um in the have them all talks about odrun songs there is very
00:00:29.960 often a vocal component in much of our magical working usually it's referred to as galder
00:00:38.020 but it is you know there's different cadences alan likes a happy cadence i like a more
00:00:45.940 the dirge
00:00:48.240 and I don't think that's a
00:00:50.760 we counterpoint on it
00:00:53.020 but I don't think any of them is wrong
00:00:54.360 it depends on what you're trying to do
00:00:55.660 what I really like with Rundalder
00:00:58.160 is the
00:00:59.840 long intonation of the
00:01:02.760 vowel sound
00:01:03.480 because I really like the
00:01:06.620 harmony and I like
00:01:08.240 what it does
00:01:10.460 when I do it long enough over time
00:01:12.420 that elongated
00:01:14.580 vowel sound tends to i don't know how to describe that it gets my body to make the noise and ride
00:01:24.340 the rhythm of making the noise without me consciously having to initiate it um i if
00:01:31.140 that doesn't make sense i apologize if it does then cool um as far as but when i read the question
00:01:39.060 I thought you were asking more about like, do we have institutionalized prayers like the Our Fathers or the Hail Marys or the, you know, the Lord's Prayer or things that other religions might have that or the Gayatri Mantra or like specific, different religions have very specific prayer sequences.
00:02:01.180 The closest thing I think we have to that is the Sig Drifimo, or the greeting to the day prayer.
00:02:12.260 That's our most common one that folks do.
00:02:17.280 And, you know, different people have a different translation of whatever, basically.
00:02:23.060 Hail day, hail the sons of day, hail night and her daughters.
00:02:26.580 look on us now with loving eyes awaiting we find victory hail you gods you goddesses hail
00:02:35.060 hail the earth all giving grant us wisdom goodly speech and healing hands throughout our lives
