Time has passed, the Wheel has turned.
It is time for you, Jim, to move on.
You will walk hand in hand with the Lord and Lady
and with your ancestors who came before you.
Great Mother, welcome Jim back into your womb.
And Great Father welcome him back into your divine instruction.
Let him come to you and know that he has been blessed by your gracious gift of Life.
Let him come into your Divine Love, and let him know that he has left behind a life of legacy, that he shall be remembered and loved.
As he enters your world, wrap him in your loving arms, and welcome him back home.
Let him speak to the Ancient Ones to learn the greater mysteries that lie beyond the veil.
Give him the strength to take these final steps, and allow him to do so with peace and dignity.
Those of us left behind shall indeed mourn his death, but we shall also know that his Soul and Spirit is coming back to Holy Mother and Holy Father, and that he shall be made whole again.
We shall cry, but we shall also laugh, for we shall celebrate the Life that had been given to Jim.
And let him also know that as we now merry part, that we shall also merry meet again.
And we now, with these candles {light candles}
respect the flame of Jim's life,
and though these candle flames shall die out,
we know that Jim shall live on,
and his flame shall never cease to burn,
and we also know that he shall be reborn anew.
Take him by the hand and guide him back into your heart, for this is what is right and just.
Let him walk unerringly down the path that leads to your Love.
This is our will and so mote it be.
Amen and Amen.
