Epona
Epona is generally thought of as a horse goddess. Her many statues show her riding a horse side-saddle or standing beside one. The horse was certainly her principal totem animal, and it was this that caught the imagination of Roman cavalry units who adopted her as their patroness.
Below are some words form an Epona ritual :
Hail, Great Epona! Mother of us all,
Bringer of plenty, Queen of earth and skies,
Lover of lovers, muse of the mating call,
Goddess of battle should the need arise,
Queen of the otherworld, where all amy rest,
Queen of this land, beloved of us all,
Queen of all creatures, by thy presence blest -
Be with us now, and answer to my call !
