~~ WHAT IS WICCA? ~~




Photobucket

Wicca is a very peaceful, harmonious and balanced way of thinking and life which promotes oneness with the divine and all which exists. Contrary to those who choose to think otherwise.
Wicca is a deep appreciation and awe in watching the sun rise from the top of the ocean or to watch it fall into an evening sky, It is the dew on the petals of a bright red rose, and the trees in the light of a glowing moon, a meadow enchanted by the first light of day. the gentle touch of a warm summer breeze, or the warmth of the summer sun on your face. Wicca is the fall of colorful autumn leaves, and the white flakes of the winter snow. It is light, and shadow and all that lies in between. It is the song of the birds and all the world creatures of the wild. It is being in the presence of Mother Earths nature To be a Witch is to be a healer, a teacher, a seeker, a giver, and a protector of all things. If this path is yours, may you walk it with honor, light and integrity. Blessed BE Xx

Wicca is a contemporary spiritual religion, based on and reviving the ancient pre-Christian pagan religions of Europe. Wiccans believe in a divine force or power as the source of all. It is both immanent and transcendent while encompassing the whole universe. Therefore the world and all aspects within the world, "nature" and "life itself" in particular, are considered sacred.
Photobucket

Wiccans use ancient and modern ceremonies, rituals and shamanic practices to attune themselves to the natural rhythms of nature, the world, and the universe in their efforts to commune with this divine force.
Photobucket

To communicate with the force, Wiccans believe it to be manifest in the form of a Goddess and God. As they emanate from the same source, both retain equal power, hence equal status. By manifesting the power in two deities (Goddess and God), the natural balance of opposites, cause and effect are retained, e.g. Summer/winter, light/ dark, life and death etc. Each opposite is essential to maintaining the balance and rhythm of life on earth.
Photobucket

During ritual ceremonies and while working with magic, Wiccans call on many other deities. All other deities (the names of which are endless) are in essence merely differently named aspects of the same Goddess and God.
Photobucket

Wicca has no high authority, no single leader, no prophet and no bible to dictate its laws and beliefs. Every witch is as important as another and all share equal status. Most wiccans are solitary practitioners known as "Hedge Witches", but there are also many “Covens”. Covens include groups of up to 13 people, which is equal to the 13 phases of the moon during the year. Covens are normally presided over by a Priest or Priestess who has had years of practice in magic and ritual techniques. The Priest or Priestess is respected as an Elder and teacher of the craft.
Photobucket

All Wiccans adhere to one overriding ethical precept as stated in the"Wiccan Rede":
Photobucket

"let it be done that it harm no one".
Photobucket

This is not a license to do whatever they want, more that it allows them the freedom of thought and actions to ascertain the truth, to communicate with and experience the divine and to determine how best to live their lives, if by doing so they cause no harm.
Photobucket

This can also be taken as a cautionary reference to the one fundamental law governing magic and its use.
Photobucket

"The Three-Fold Law".
This states that whatever they do - be it for good or for evil - it will be returned to them, but magnified three times over. Therefore witches accept responsibility for all their own actions and are especially careful about how they use their magic, for to hurt someone or to cause distress, a spell is returned to sender three times better or worse. See "The Three-Fold Law".
Photobucket

Wiccans celebrate 8 major rituals each year called "Sabbats" (see "Sabbats"). There are 4 major and 4 minor Sabbats. The major Sabbats include: Imbolc (February 2nd), Beltane (April 30th), Lughnasadh (August 1st) and Samhain (October 31st), while the minor Sabbats are: Ostara (Spring Equinox, March 21st), Litha (Summer Solstice, June 21st), Madon (Autumn Equinox, September 21st), and Yule (Winter Solstice, December 21st).
Photobucket

The Sabbats are solar rituals marking the points of the sun's yearly cycle, and make up half of the Wiccan ritual year. The other half is made up with "Esbats", the Full Moon celebrations. There are 13 full moons each year symbolizing the goddess, wisdom and the inner self of the individual.
Photobucket

Wiccans and Pagans are ordinary everyday types of people and come from all walks of life, from all spectrums of society and from all over the world. Most are individuals seeking a personalized practical religion that can be adapted to suit their own needs and criteria. Wicca is a wonderfully diverse religion that meets those needs.
Photobucket

There are many differing paths and traditions contained within Wicca, each with it's own brand of ritual and magic. See "Traditions". But perhaps the single most common theme among all these traditions, is an overriding reverence for life, nature, and the environment, as seen through the Goddess and God.

Summer Solstice Celebrations

Hi Everyone,

After a marriage breakup at the beginning of the year, I'm moving on with no hassles but the ex isn't. I made a big decision to let him have the kids on Christmas Day - I'm not christian after all!!! So I figure we'll start some new traditions & make Summer Solstice my main day with the kids. Summer Solstice is my fave day of the year but I'm not one for big rituals or anything, just usually share the day with good friends.

I'd love some ideas on how to make some new… Continue

~~ BELLS ~~

~~ BELLS ~~



Bells were known in China before 2000 B.C. and were found in Egypt, India, Greece, Rome, and other ancient cultures, to name a few. From earliest times they were used to signaling devices, a ritual object, as magical and often protective amulets (hung on doorways or around the neck of animals), fertility charms, to summon god/desses and spirits, as well as purely musical instrument. Bells of gold were worn on the hem of the high priest garments in Israel so that… Continue

Goddess Brighid Fire Goddess



Brighid of the oracles,

Brighid of the twisted hairs,

Brighid, friend to woman,

Brighid of the fire.

Brighid of the fire's fuel,

Brighid of the cloak,

Brighid of the tender hands,

Brigid of the oak.

Bide ye Wiccan laws ye must,

in perfect love and perfect trust.

Live and let live, fairly take and fairly give.

Form the circle thrice about, to keep all evil spirits out.

To bind ye spell every time, let ye spell be spake in rhyme.

Soft of eye, light of touch, speak ye little, listen much.

Deosil go by the waxing moon, singing out ye Witches’ Rune.

Widdershins go by the waning moon, chanting out ye Baneful Rune.

When the Lady’s moon is new, kiss your hand to her times two.

When the moon rides at her peak, then ye heart’s desire seek.

Heed the North wind’s mighty gale, lock the door and trim 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 may have no rest.

When the wind blows from the East, except the new and set the feast.

Nine woods in ye cauldron go, burn them fast and burn them slow.

Elder be ye Lady’s tree, burn it not or cursed ye’ll be.

When the wheel begins to turn, soon ye Beltaine fire’ll burn.

When the wheel hath turned to Yule, light the log the Horned One rules.

Heed ye flower, bush and tree, by the Lady blessed be.

Where the rippling waters flow, cast a stone and truth ye’ll know.

When ye have and hold a need, harken not to others greed.

With a fool no season spend, nor be counted as his friend.

Merry meet and merry part, bright the cheeks and warm the heart.

Mind ye threefold law ye should, three times bad and three times good.

When misfortune is anow, wear the blue star upon thy brow.

True in love ye must ever be, lest thy love be false to thee.

In these eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill,

‘An ye harm none, do what ye will.


Written By 'Lady Gwynne Thompson' who was a primary teacher of the N.E.C.T.W. (New England Coven of Traditionalist Witches) from 1928 - 1986.
