The lighting of the fire by the christianize Celtic women was of great importance in there daily duties. The Celts mixed there pagan belief systems with Christian doctrine, more so than any other tribal cultures. The hearth fire had always been blessed, and they found no need to stop the process simply because Christianity appeared on the moors. They looked upon fore as a miracle of divinity and power

A Celtic blessing for the lifting of fire is said every morning under the womens breath is as follows:

I will kindle my fire this morning
In the presence of the holy angels of heaven
In the presence of Ariel of the loveliest form,
In the presence of Uriel of the mythic charms,
Without malice, without jealousy, without envy
Without fear without terror of anyone under the sun
But the Goddess to shield me
Without malice, without jealousy, without envy
Without fear without terror of anyone under the sun
Hut the holy Queen of the Angels to shield me.

Goddess kindle thou in my heart within
A flame of love to my neighbor,
To my foe, to my friend, to my kindred all,
To the brave, to the knave, to the thrall
From the children of my loveliest Queen
From the lowliest thing that lives
To the Goddess that is the highest of All
