This is not my invocation but I use it often when I find myself suffering from a lack of self-confidence and you better believe it works. The results are amazing; I thank both the friend (Ravenhawk) who sent it me and the woman who wrote it.
The Mirror and the Grail .... A Goddess Integration
Within me resides the beauty of life.
Within me resides a heavenly light,
My inner radiance shines unmasked and unveiled,
My soul born forth from NebHet's Grail,
Reveiled this night through HetHet's Mirror
The beauty in me not shall I fear
Not shall I hide, Not shall I deceive
My brilliant soul I wish to free
No ropes that bind, no chains that hinder
The Goddess within me I release to shimmer
And shine forth with love and heart
Her protection around me shall never depart
As I walk unobstructed my life's chosen path
Her reflection through me eternally cast.
This night I become the very Goddess I seek
She is me and within me I keep
My soul the cup that receives her powers
My being a reflected heavenly flower
plucked forth from Her garden and gifted in form
to earth it is sent so She is reborn
for in Her image my beauty reflects
all that She is and Her existence perfect.
I am beauty
I am love
I am heaven above
reflected down I have become
all the elements into this body as one
part earth and water, part fire and air.....
all braided around Her spirit I bare
Her nature Her honour and powers I seek
Oh Goddess teach me the mysteries you keep.
The soul a reflection, the mirror the tool
The container a cup it's contents the pool
The powers of both can be combined
and used to protect, abolish and divine,
to see through the veils, connect and reflect
or provideth a barrier to mask or deflect
harmful intentions or self imposed projections
their powers provide a True Goddess connection
Within them both a powerful infusion
of the knowledge and mysteries of using illusion.

Message from Maakheru Em Hotep: "I wrote this as a call to reveal the goddess in everyone of us. To be performed in front of a mirror when one is ready to realize the Goddess within their own selves. Do what you will with it. It is a Mirror and Grail Goddess expecting invocation. I would change up the Goddesses names if NebtHet and HetHert are not one that you identify with. Have fun and good luck.
* I myself changed the Goddess names to Venus and Aphrodite because they are two that I identify with especially when I am looking towards self acceptance.
