Uēdiās (Prayers)

Gaulish Polytheism, Gaulish Paganism

The following are not invocations for rites, but rather universal prayers known as Uēdiās, thoughtfully crafted to resonate with the rhythms of our daily lives. These Uēdiās serve as moments throughout the day to connect to the Dêuoi they hold profound significance in our existence. They are important because they provide us with a sacred thread of connection to something greater than ourselves.

Uēdiā, in its various forms, is vital for several reasons. Firstly, it offers us a moment of pause, inviting us to step away from the hustle and bustle of our busy lives. In these moments, whether it’s before a meal, during travel, or at different intervals throughout the day, we find a precious opportunity to reflect and center ourselves. Secondly, Uēdiā serves as a means of expressing gratitude. When we pause to give thanks before a meal, we acknowledge the blessings of sustenance and the interconnectedness of our lives. During travel, we seek safety and guidance, recognizing our vulnerability in an ever-changing world. In the morning, we express gratitude for the gift of a new day, while in the evening, we reflect on the day that has passed.

Uēdiā is a way to seek solace and find strength in challenging moments. It offers a channel for our hopes, fears, and desires, allowing us to voice our concerns and seek guidance from the Dêuoi. These Uēdiās are important because they foster a sense of spirituality and connection within us. They remind us that life is not just a series of mundane tasks but a sacred journey filled with moments of awe and wonder.
