Bide the Wiccan Law ye must, In perfect Love, in perfect trust. Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill:An ye harm none, do as ye will. And ever mind the Rule of Three: What ye send out, comes back to thee. Follow this with mind and heart, And merry ye meet, and merry ye part. Before Time Was Written by S. Cunningham in "Living Wicca" Before time was, there was The One; The One was all & all was The One. And the vast expanse known as the Universe was The One, all-wise, all-pervading, all-powerful, eternally changing. And Space moved. The One molded energy into twin forms equal but opposite, fashioning the Goddess and God from The One and of The One The Goddess & God stretched and gave thanks to The One, but darkness surrounded them. They were alone, solitary save for The One. So they formed energy into gases and gases into suns and planets and moons; They sprinkled the Universe with whirling globes and so all was given shape by the hands of the Goddess and God. Light arose and the sky was illuminated by a billion suns. and the Goddess and Gods, satisfied by their works, rejoiced and loved, and were one. From their union sprang seeds of life, and of the human race, so that we might achieve incarnation upon the Earth. The Goddess chose the Moon as her symbol, and the God the Sun as his symbol to remind the inhabitants of Earth of their fashioners. All are born, live, die and are reborn beneath The Sun and Moon; all things come to pass thereunder, and all occurs with the blessings of The One, as has been the way of existence before time was.

Goddess & God Goddess The Goddess is the mother of all life in the universe. Life comes forth from her, she is the bringer and the take awayer of Life, Death, and Rebirth. The Witch Goddess who introduces herself in these words: No other law but love I know, By naught but love may I be know, And all that liveth is my own, From me they come, to me they go. Some symbol that represent the Goddess are the cup, cauldron, five-petalled flowers, seashell, pearl and silver. As She has dominion over the Earth, sea and moon, Her creatures are varied and numerous. "A few include the rabbit, bear, owl, cat, dog, bat, goose, cow, dolphin, lion, horse, scorpion, spider and bee. All are sacred to the Goddess" (Cunningham, 1989). To Witches, She is the Mother, Maiden, and Crone. She is neither young nor old. She is the three phases of the Moon. She is call by many different names which include: Diana, Selene, Aphrodite, Aradia, Athemis, Athena, Bast, Brigit, Cybele, Demeter, Freya, Hathor, Hecate, Hera, Iris, Isis, Juno, Kerridwen, Minerva. God The God is father Sun. He rules from Yule to Midsummer Eve. He rules the forest, the god of the hunt and the protector of animals. Like the Goddess the God has many names: The Horned, God, Pan, Odin, Apollo, Ares, Mars, Jupiter, Mercury, Osiris, Ra, Thoth, Woden, and Zeus. The God is also the tender of the wild animals. "As the Horned God He is sometimes seen wearing horns on His head, symbolizing His connection with these beasts"(Cunningham, 1989) and all things wild.

The Law Written by S. Cunningham in "Living Wicca" We are of the Old Ways, among those who walk with the Goddess and God and receive Their love. Keep the Sabbats and Esbats to the best of your abilities, for to do otherwise is to lessen your connection with the Goddess and God. Harm none. This, the oldest law, is not open to interpretation or change. Shed not blood in ritual; the Goddess and God need not blood to be duly worshiped. Those of our ways are kind to all creatures, for hurtful thoughts are quiet draining and aren't worth the loss of energy. Misery is self-created; so, too, is joy, so create joy and disdain misery and unhappiness. And this is within your power. So harm not. Teach only what you know, to the best of your ability, to those students who you choose, but teach not to those who would use your instructions for destruction or control. Also, teach not to boost pride, forever remember: She who teaches out of love shall be enfolded in the arms of the Goddess and God. Ever remember that if you would be of our way, keep the law close to your heart, for it is the nature of the Wicca to keep the Law. If ever the need arises, any law may be changed or discarded, and new laws written to replace them, so long as the new laws don't break the oldest law of all: Harm None. Blessings of the Goddess and God on us all.

Law of Power Written by S. Cunningham in "Living Wicca" The Power shall not be used to bring harm, to injure or control others. But if the need rises, the Power shall be used to protect your life or the lives of thers. The Power is used only as need dictates. The Power can be used for your own gain, as long as by doing so you harm none. It is unwise to accept money for use of the Power, for it quickly controls its taker. Be not as those of other religions. Use not the Power for prideful gain, for such cheapens the mysteries of Wicca and magick. Ever remember that the Power is the sacred gift of the Goddess and God, and should never be misused or abused. And this is the law of the Power.

Threefold Law It is a belief of in one's actions both positive and negative, will come back to us threefold.

Magick Witches and Witchcraft are firmly linked with use of magick through history. It is one our basic concepts of Witchcraft. One aspect of magick helps Witches have a special relationship with Goddess and God. Magick has always been a mystery to people who do not practice the Craft. Some people think that they could just try doing a spell, just to see if the spell will work. Spells need both time and effort to work right. When performing any type of magick one must always think about the Wiccan Rede. This means that if you do something, be it for youself or someone else, if it harms, it will come back to you threefold. Magick is Nature, one should not use magick against another person or animal. There are many different ways a Witch can perform magick or spells including using Runes, tarot card readings, candle burning, crystals, herbal, brews and so on. These methods have been around for a very long time but we had lost a lot of these methods because of the Burning Times. We are just now rediscovering the old method of magick. "Energy exists within all things--ourselves, plants, stones, colors, sounds, movement" (Wicca, Cunningham.,1989). These items are use as a type storehouse of energy. One can tap into the energy when needed. Witches have three main ways to tap into magick, personal energy power, Earth power, and divine power. "The movement of natural (yet subtle) Energies to manifest positive, needed change. Magic is the process of rousing energy giving it purpose (through Visualization), and releasing it to change. This is a natural (not supernatural) practice"(Wicca, Cunningham.,1989).

Do's and Don'ts of Wicca/Witchcraft Do's We do celebrate Life, try not to take a life. It is important that to keep in mind the Wiccan Rede. An it harm none, do what thou wilt. We do believe in the Goddess and God. They are equal in the role they have in our lives. Don'ts Witches do not worship Satan. Witches do not sacrifice living creatures.

What is your Witch Potential? by The Witches' Almanac Reincarnation is a basic tenet of Witchcraft. Those of us fortunate enough to belong to the Craft believe that successive lives are enjoyed under the same zodiac sign. But unlike other ideologies Witchcraft imposes no demands for increasing excellence - only that each life be lived to its fullest capabilities. Most of us, despite centuries of indoctrination by the mechanized society, still have ties to the earth...some innate Witchcraft potential that can be developed. Read the following questions and see how you react to them: Have you always been intrigued by the occult? Do you prefer night to day? Does a storm stir in you an inexplicable sense of excitement? Are you a sensualist? Have you always felt different from most of those around you, set apart? Do you instinctively respond to animals? Are you comfortable alone? Are you relatively indifferent to material possessions? Have you had fleeting glimpses of former lives? Should you find you can answer most of these questions in the affirmative your witch potential is probably high and should be encouraged. There is no church to join, no tribute to pay and no hierarchy to employ. You, and you alone, must concentrate on the development of your own other-consciousness. Go to nature and observe. Attune your inner-mechanism to the quiet pace of the seasons and the procession of the constellations across the sky. Go alone, or with that person closest to you. Watch the moon rise, walk in the forests. Feel the earth, drink the water, breathe the air...then light the sacred candles and begin the life you were meant to live.

A Wiccan Altar Written by S. Cunningham in "Living Wicca" As the physical center of your religious observances, the altar is of prime importance. Theories concerning the significance of and the proper arrangement of tools on altars varies. That altars are necessary, however, is rarely questioned. Once again, altars don't necessarily make the Wiccan, but the use of such altars is one of the defining yardsticks of Wiccan practices. However much we may enjoy spontaneous rituals in a moonlit forest, while watching a desert sunset or lying on a grassy plain, structured rituals are an important part of long-standing Wiccan tradition, and structured rituals ( more often than not) are performed with altars. Many books contain altar designs and layouts' mat you can use to create your own. As most Wiccan traditions utilize a specific altar arrangement, so too can your tradition. Here are some basics: The altar is always round. The altar is always square. The altar is always rectangular. The altar can be of any shape. This pretty much sums Wiccan round regarding the appropriate shape of the altar. Many use round altars to symbolize, among other matters, the Goddess. Make your decision. The Image or symbol of the Goddess can be placed to me left of the altar as you stand before it; the image of the God to the right. South and the bowl of water, chalice, cauldron, bell and other tools to the West. (This and the above system can't be simultaneously, and neither is more correct, ) Tools associated with the Goddess ( the chalice, bells, brooms, cauldrons) are often placed to the left. Tools associated with the God (swords, wands, the white handled knife, a bowl of salt, the censer) are often placed to the right on the altar. Other tools may be placed in the center: the pentacle, the censer, fresh flowers or greens. Candle usually placed where they can't easily be knocked over, if at the rear of the altar. A totally different method of arranging the altar takes the elements into account. Earthy tools (pentacle, salt) are placed to the North; the censer and incense to the East to represent Air; a red candle to the South and the bowl of water, chalice, cauldron, bell and other tools to the West. (This and the above system can't be used simultaneously, and neither is more correct. ) Leave space on your altar for your opened Book of Shadows, create or find a small stand on which to place the Book during rituals. Though our rituals should be memorized, we can all have lapses of memory and it's nice to have a reminder close at hand. The altar is sacred. Not that the Goddess and God live within it, but because we utilize it and the tools that it bears for spiritual purposes. Thus, only objects directly connected with Wicca and/or magical rites performed in the circle should be placed on the altar. If, after ritual, the altar is used for other purposes ( as, perhaps, a coffee table) , at such times it ceases to be an altar. Only when it's covered with the tools of our religion and used as a focal point for ritual does it become an altar. These are generalities, you should be able to find one that works for you. There are many books on this subject. Make a sketch for your altar in your Book of Shadows. But have in mind whys and how's of the arrangement.

Wiccan Rede or Witches Rede ( * From GREEN EGG, Vol. VIII, No. 69 (Ostara, 1975). It's Part of an article called "Wiccan-Pagan Potpourri" by Lady Gwen Thompson (now deceased), founder and High Priestess of Welsh Tradition Wicca. In the original version of the Rede, each two-line couplet was numbered, 1 through 26. Bide the Wiccan Laws we must in Perfect Love and Perfect Trust. Live and let live, fairly take and fairly give. Cast the Circle thrice about to keep the evil spirits out. To bind the spell every time let the spell be spake in rhyme. Soft of eye and light of touch,speak little, listen much. Deosil go by the waxing moon, chanting out the Witches' Rune. Widdershins go by the waning moon,chanting out the baneful rune. When the Lady's moon is new, kiss the hand to her, times two. When the moon rides at her peak,then your heart's desire seek. Heed the North wind's mighty gale, lock the door and drop the sail. When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss thee on the mouth. When the wind blows from the West,departed souls will have no rest. When the wind blows from the East, expect the new and set the feast. Nine woods in the cauldron go, burn them fast and burn them slow. Elder be the Lady's tree, burn it not or cursed you'll be. When the Wheel begins to turn, let the Beltane fires burn. When the Wheel has turned to Yule, light the log and the Horned One rules. Heed ye Flower, Bush and Tree, by the Lady, blessed be. Where the rippling waters go, cast a stone and truth you'll know. When ye have a true need, hearken not to others' greed. With a fool no season spend, lest ye be counted as his friend. Merry meet and merry part, bright the cheeks and warm the heart. Mind the Threefold Law you should, three times bad and three times good. When misfortune is enow, wear the blue star on thy brow. True in Love ever be, lest thy lover's false to thee. Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill: An ye harm none, do what ye will. by Lady Gwen Thompson. Burning Times In this section I will talk about the "Burning times". Why it happened and how long it lasted, also I will have a list of the names known of whom were executed in the name of God by most Christians. I will add that this happened back then, peoples views were different, they thought differently than most people do today, so don't go out and critisize all Christians for the act that "these" ones did, a lot of them have come to accept us. History Lesson The first major witch-hunt in the modern sense occured in 367 CE (common era) by the order of the Roman emporer Valerian. In it's early stages the Christian church was lenient towards witchcraft. If found "guilty" of practicing you were only required to do penance. Struggling to consolidate the power of the church, recognized that all-out conflict with the extreemely numerous devotees of the Old Religion would be disastrous. So for the time being they tolerated witchcraft. But once the church grew stronger, their attitude towards witchcraft began to stiffen. They were now strong enough to fight openly against the Old Faith as most of them had been converted to Christianity. The witch-craze mania obsessed Europe from about 1050 to approximately the 17th century where it subsided occasionally but then attained greater fury. Witnesses were paid to testify against the accused, children were encouraged to inform against their parents, neighbours against each other and husbands against wives. If a conviction was the reason a witness helped out, the witness would get a share of the land, property and any other possessions the convicted "witch" had, and the courts would get the rest. Inhuman tortures were inflicted to force a confession. Some of these included the hot iron, lashing, cutting, burning and threats against their families. for each conviction the inquisitors got they were paid a fee. So you can see why they attacked so many people. That's what happens when you involve money!! Anyway here was a brief history, let's get on with this page shall we!! The Reason Behind The Killings Okay now this could get a little interesting, so just stay calm as you read this. Witchcraft is not based on dogma and scriptures. Witchcraft, the Old Religion takes all it's inspirations and teachings from Nature. Now there were some people who believed that harmful magick existed in their world and that people attained this "evil" power through a pact with Satan!!  Women were believed to be sexually insatiable so they were considered to be more vulnerable to the powers of the devil, now with this I totally disagree!!lol. Personal revenge plays a huge factor in the Burning Times. If someone had done something and the victim of the incident wanted revenge they could easily make up a story about the person being a witch and it would be taken care of. An illness or death in the family was also blamed on witchcraft, as was drought and any other natural disaster. All these things started a few witch-hunts and and carried on from there. Then sooner than you think there were a ton of them and the "Burning Times" began. Religious and personal power were also a big factor in the killings. As mentioned above, the Christian church wanted everyone to become Christians therefore telling the Pagans that the God they worshipped was actually the devil. If they didn't change their ways they would be killed. So because of thisreason many converted to Christianity. Personal power was achieved when the "accusor" had successfully helped the town to "get rid of the evil". These people were then admired and gained the respect of the town. It also gave a person favour with the church and the government. So as you can see, there wasn't much you could do if you got convicted. Now many of these "witches" were not truly witches at all, most of the people executed were innocent men, women and children falsly accused.
