Goddess of Groundhogs : # Ya, I think this is why I bypassed wicca. The 3 fold 'law' and # the rede seemed like pagan versions of the xian 10 commandments # to me, and all the ritualization was too formal. I asked my teachers about that and they told me (being liberal Wiccans) that these were merely guidelines, and that those who felt that they were supported by the gods in their activities had no restrictions whatsoever. the Rede was Good Policy, but not some kind of absolute restraint. # I'm not a rigid person. I couldn't have rigid beliefs. most of the Wiccans I've met didn't. they were practical witches without dogmatic adherence. # That said, a love spell, because of it's nature, # shouldn't/wouldn't fit into wiccan practice simply # because of the 'harm' it 'may' cause. shouldn't? your call (as a practitioner), where I stand. wouldn't? that depends on the Wiccan. there is no hard and fast restriction from it, and no litmus within the general Wiccan community proscribing it, though there are quite a few who would advise against it, perhaps as you have done here. #> =========================================================== #> ===== (Planetary Order Talisman --- Skip-1 Formula!) ===== #> ANCIENTS : M-2-3-1-5-6-7 (mean terracentric motion order) #> NIGRIS : 2-1-6-M-3-5-7 (a mysterious, hidden sequence!) #> WEEKDAYS : 1-M-5-2-6-3-7 (weekdays in the solar calendar) #> =========================================================== #> PLAN-KEY : 1-2-3-M-5-6-7 (Sun-Merc-Ven-Moon-Mars-Jup-Sat) #> ========== (Rotating Wisdom From The Ancients!) =========== #> =========================================================== # # Could you take a minute and explain this, lorax?
