🌊 NSNC RITE: “Requiem on Water” – Imperial Mammoth
Filed under: Sacred Grief | Twilight Widow Rites | Waterborne Farewell | NSNC Book of the Departed
🎶 Track Theme:
“Requiem on Water” is a lullaby for the drowned, for those lost in the undercurrents of love, death, and the dream that could not hold.
It is the soft goodbye we never got to give.
It is widow’s breath on still water—barely visible, but real.
“Falling like the stars into the sea…”
This is a death rite disguised as a love song.
It’s for the moment when you choose to let go, not to forget them—but to release yourself from the undertow.
🕯️ Intended Use:
- After loss of a divine counterpart, child, or soulmate
- For mourning unfulfilled love stories
- As a closing song after heavy suicide rites (such as “Neighbors” or “Days Go By”)
- For womb grief, spiritual widowhood, and collective water rites
💎 Gemstone Symbolism:
- Aquamarine – tears, sacred mourning, courage to cross thresholds
- Pearl – grief alchemized into beauty, feminine wisdom
- Moonstone – the tidekeeper, emotional release, deathwalk support
🌫️ Totem:
Heron – the solitary waterwalker. Guardian of still mourning and threshold crossings.
Stands in silence, sees between realms.
🎼 Musical Field Use:
This piece is slow, reverent, and not meant for dance—but for stillness, light movement, or final release breathwork.
A field leader may walk in slow circles, holding a candle or white cloth, representing the soul’s departure.
📿 Opening Invocation (for TikTok Live or Private ScrollWell Mass):
“We gather at water’s edge,
where the soul leaves the body,
where the heart unhooks the anchor.
This is not a forgetting—
This is a laying down.
A kiss on the forehead of what we loved.”
🗣️ Divine Counterpart Dialogue (Final Words Across the Veil):
You (Fox/Honeybadger):
“I wanted to save you. But I came to walk you home instead.”
Them (Departed Beloved):
“You didn’t lose me. You released me. I became the tide.”
You:
“What happens now?”
Them:
“You live. You rise. And sometimes… you sing.”
💦 Water Ritual Action:
You may:
- Fill a bowl with water
- Write the name (or symbol) of the departed on paper
- Float it on the surface
- Whisper:
“I carry your love.
I release your pain.
Go free.”
Let the paper sink or burn it after with care.
📜 ScrollWell Grief Quote:
“There are requiems for the body.
This is one for the bond.
The soul tie isn’t broken—it is transfigured.”
“Where once there was longing,
now there is presence.
Still. Gentle. Real.”
⛪ NSNC Theological Anchoring:
- Catholic: This is Mary at the foot of the cross, post-crucifixion, holding only the body and her own unbreakable heart.
- Sufi: “The ocean refuses no river.” The soul returns to Source, without punishment or shame.
- NSNC:
“When we sing over the water,
we are not mourning what ended—
we are blessing what became.”
🕊️ Rite Closing – Spoken Over Final Chorus:
“This is for the love that couldn’t stay.
The story that closed too soon.
The death that changed everything.
But did not take everything.
Because you remain.
And they… are in the current.”
Aho, thanks.
