Ordains

 
Here you will find some guidelines, much like the Wiccan Rede.  I feel that while they may be rudimentary to some, they nevertheless may be a VERY important part
of who we are and what we do.  Remember to always act responsibly in whatever you think, do or say.....
 

The Law of Power

 

1.      The Power shall not be used to bring harm, to injure or control others.  But if the need arises, the Power shall be used to protect your life or the lives of others.

2.     The Power is used only as need dictates.

3.    The Power can be used for your own gain, as long as by doing so you harm none.

4.     It is unwise to accept money for use of the Power, for it quickly controls its taker.  Be not as those of other religions.

5.    Use not the Power for prideful gain, for such cheapens the mysteries of Wicca and magic.

6.     Ever remember that the Power is the sacred gift of the Goddess and God, and should never be misused or abused.

7.     And this is the Law of the Power.

 

Words of Power

For Earth Magic, we use words, thought, images, ideas and rituals to activate our work.  We employ the basic, standard occult Principles to connect the Worlds.  We follow the basic Words of Power techniques:

 

1.      There is One Power.

2.     The Power includes All.

3.    We are all perfect microcosms of the Power (Thus we are linked to all beings).

4.     Every being has Free Will and all work is for the good of all.

5.    As microcosms of the One Power which includes All, we draw upon whichever aspect of the Power we wish to use, for whatever goals we state.

6.     We affirm that the work goes out into The Law of Cause and Effect, and that it is done.

 

The Power of Words

 

As Witches, we believe that all of our words come true, not only when we are specifically working magic.  We also believe that everyone, including non-Witches, is continually creating life experiences by means of words that are spoken.  So we use the following antidotes if ever we hear negative words spoken by anyone – even ourselves:

 

  •      I take that out of the Law (meaning the Law of Cause and Effect)

  •      No harmful power, turn it to good.

  •      Goddess (and God) forbid.  This is dissolved, released and turned to good.
