A solitary alternative is the Floral Offering to the Goddess.
The garland of flowers will be initially placed in the Eastern quarter of the circle.
At this time, the solitary celebrant will pick the the flower-crown, and standing or kneeling before the altar, will begin this prayer:
We give praise to Thee,
vibrant Goddess of youth and sensuality;
Lady of Spring, exuberant Earth Maiden,
dancing in joyous abandon with the goat-footed God
across hillside and field in vivacious hues of brightness,
exuding the wondrous essence of waving wildflowers.
Wherefore we offer unto Thee
this floral crown of Thy Creation,
laid now upon Thine altar as the woven splendor of Nature's art;
the many-colored Crown of May,
scented with the mystery and majesty
that is the Maiden!
All Hail, Lady Fair,
with flowered garlands for Thy hair!
The crown of flowers is then laid upon the altar as an offering to the Goddess.
