May the God of the light within your soul be with you now and always;
where ever you go, may your light be as glorious as the stars in the sky,
and may you shine brightly like the child of the Good that you are,
on Earth as it is in Heaven.
(Shannon)
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
(Gaelic Blessing)
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.
(Numbers 6:24-26)
May the long-time sun shine upon you,
all love surround you,
and the pure light within you,
guide you all the way on.
(Lyrics from A Very Cellular Song, written by Mike Heron and performed by The Incredible String Band, 1968)
Live long and prosper
(Leonard Nimoy as Spock, Star Trek, the hand symbol represents the first letter of the word for God in Hebrew)
Look not too far ahead! But go now with good hearts!
Farewell, and may the blessing of Elves and Men and all Free Folk go with you.
May the stars shine upon your faces!
(Elrond, Lord of Rivendell, in The Fellowship of the Ring, by J.R.R. Tolkien)
