The Astrologer's Prayer Poem by Pamela Ann Frances Crane

The Astrologer's Prayer



(Aries) .............Teach me how to be,
(Libra) .............And be aware;
(Taurus) ..........Teach me how to have,
(Scorpio) .........And how to share;
(Sagittarius) ...Teach me to understand
(Gemini) .........As well as know;
(Cancer) ..........Teach me how to root,
(Capricorn) .....And how to grow.
(Leo) ................Teach me how to love
(Aquarius) .......And to be free;
(Virgo) ............To be of service,
(Pisces) ...........And to come to Thee.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Astrology, understood and practised spiritually, can teach us to be our best selves. This little prayer is a summary of the gentle lessons of the twelve signs, in their opposing pairs (Gemini would normally precede Sagittarius.) The original is arranged very differently and illustrated with the twelve symbols; this is the best way I could manage to present the prayer for PoemHunter.
