Invocation to the Midgard Serpent

Hail Iormungand
Child of the Trickster
And the Hag of the Iron Wood,
Brother and sister of Death,
Neither male nor female
But complete within yourself,
Neither forward nor backward
But eternally circling,
Neither of the earth
Nor apart from it
But forever surrounding us
In our Middle Land.
Teach us, O Serpent,
Of what it is to see the end
And the beginning as one,
To see all things
In their place on the whell,
To live with the turning
And not mistake it for a straight line
Even when the hoizon
Is too far away
For our weak eyes to find.
