Artemis,

Huntress and Guardian.

Goddess of the hunt,

And of the Moon too.

Shapeshifter Artemis,

Daughter of Leto and King Zeus.

Twin to Apollo,

Mighty god of the Sun.

Archer Artemis,

Protector of Women.

Mother to those,

Who cannot fend for themselves.

Maiden Artemis,

Defender of the weak,

The innocent, the young,

And all in-between.

Goddess Artemis,

Wild and free.

No need to compete,

With jealousy and greed.

Primal Artemis,

Daughter of the Shewolf.

Born to unearthly Delos,

She came to be with ease.

Midwife Artemis,

Came into this world pristine.

Unlike her brother Apollo,

Struggling to be set free.

We honor You,

Goddess Artemis,

We gift You,

with our love.

We enter

Into the wild with You

And shed our

Unearthly bounds.

We call on You

Mighty Artemis.

Shield us

With your arrows.

For we are the daughters of Artemis

Feral, wild, and free.

Children of the moon we cry

An enchanting melody.
