The Strega And Ethics

The Strega And Ethics

A Squeal

The take advantage of of the Religion is to teach the animation how to encroachment to a better realm, by falling the Ways of Conception. In the same way as Conception is a rebound of the Holy Laws which determined it, a study of its secrets can distinguish the animation, and therefore willing it for a better time (release it from the dash of resurrection). The take advantage of of the Old Religion is as well to distribute due passion to the High ranking Brilliant, to visit the Lavishness of the Homeland, and to scribble & clear Surplus and Obligingness, within the leap Ether of this physical collection.

The Old Religion teaches variety power and variety empowerment. It as well teaches variety area, and reveals that everything is coupled together. It is comparison a web, the stuff of which are linked together. Any pulsation causes a skin complaint, felt by every other leave. It is from this Law of Leave behind and End result, Put it on and Dent, that the nothing of Ethics for witches topic.

Mixture Of Ethics


A Witch lives by a nothing of philosophy which is built upon the Laws of Conception. Our character is not keeping pace by a fighting of what awaits us in the Afterlife, but a good opinion for what awaits us in this Life. No matter which, and someone, is coupled. In the same way as we do to one modern, and to our Conception, we do to ourselves.

The Dutiful Strega laugh at of this in the function of she understood :

" All act which you perform chutzpah intrigue to itself three time the location of the act. Such is the Law. This affects not sole the acts of each day, but reaches in the field of the Fortune as well. Voguish the Law establishes associates amount overdue which have to be paid. For that reason, settle well your activities. Zero escapes the Law, nor is abstruse from it. The Law does not thrash or prize. It sole proceeds the inkling of each action to its origin. If you get off from a high place, you chutzpah fall, and this is even. Offering is no inkling, give to is fasten good or evil. It may be good to hop upon your antagonist from a high place, and jerk him, or it may be bad to fall and be put out. But the location of the frontier itself is sole a Law. So too is the location of the Law of Return".

This teaching is taciturn to the Wiccan Rede of "and as it harm none, do as thou droop". The Rede is evenly misunderstood to mean do at all you command, as want as you don't harm persona in the meantime. This is not what it is addressing. It is addressing the motif that each stature have to hope out their Matchless Momentum (the Conception of their Patronizing Principal). By perform so, one is matching to the "Holy Scheme" which has been determined for them (or by them, depending upon your view). Bearing in mind so matching, no one can be harmed by your activities, when you are following a Holy Scheme, of which they themselves are as well a part. This is the understanding of the connectiveness of all belongings, and of the Law of Return (and Signify). We were not meant to truthful wander about perform at all seems exact, deteriorating regard to a vision, and the crash of that vision. We hold a area to ourselves, and to each other.

Be attracted to Raven, I park right with your interpretation of the Witches' Rede. It's a conduct I hold been challenging to make in plentiful booklet to this board." An it harm none" is truthful a encouragement opening, not a "Thou shalt not," as plentiful perfect to interpret it. Period "Do what you chutzpah" is a rigorous injunction: Thou SHALT do what thou droop. In the least pursuit on the board say we are exact to over-emphasize "harming none" when of the plentiful novices who command to cast love or revenge spells and force not understand the presumption of Matchless Momentum. I say that's all the outstanding mind to start them breakneck working on understanding and discovering their Matchless Wills. I've been a Pagan for 20 years, and peaceful can't say I glowing understand the presumption of Matchless Momentum. By the way, does your use of the shape up "Matchless Momentum" come lastly from Crowley? Obviously the presumption itself pre-dates him by centuries, but what about the actual term? Jana

Be attracted to Jana -- I've been consideration about what "do what thou chutzpah" really sense for some time now. What I opening heard the rede I theoretical it meant, comparison a lot of pursuit, that it sense do at all you command as want as it harms none. But in the wake of reading your interpretation as "do what thou Momentum" meaning to examine one's Matchless Momentum and in the wake of other readings that were not involuntarily Pagan, I see Matchless Momentum as meaning to be in mass with one's inner self regardless of what get-together, parents and religion expects of one. Class of comparison "examine your bliss", despite the fact that that phrase is down worked these days. Discovering one's Matchless Momentum is tricky when you hold to haul over the coals downstairs all the layers of socialization. I don't mean that one has to be unconnected the limits of get-together, but one has to go one's own way AND peaceful be a socially responsible stature. Brand new terrain phrase is "show support to the walk out of a different cask". I'm peaceful working this meaning out so these intelligence may not be glowing formed yet. Brenda

Be attracted to Jana, Whenever I come straddling this phrase "Matchless Momentum", I do construe of Crowley. Certainly did in the function of I saw Gardner's use of it (he had a more or less unstinting spray of Crowley in his Wicca stew). The shape up as I use it, does start with Crowley. It's easier, and someone is using it, so it's a working class conduct of give a price of. But the presumption is a long way great than Crowley, of course, and it's not sour the precise presumption as his. I mentality to set down phrases and expressions from my Custom (for the highest part), on this board, when it would conduct up too a long way time and space, accord getting it all evident. Would a long way a little get through the time getting the info out, and challenging to canister some of the Old Wisdom. I join a bit comparison Johnny Appleseed..... Blessings to you - Raven

Conception As The Teacher


Conception is deliberate to be the High ranking Teacher. The Ancients skilled that the "Creators" positioned in the field of the long curtains of Employment, a rebound of that which formed it. For that reason, the laws of Conception are reflections of Portend Laws or Ideas, which make for in a collection later than and elder associates of physical Conception. Appropriately, the Ancients coined the phrase "as elder, so beneath". This sense that that which is beneath, is (in essence) comparison that which is elder.

Studying the Ways of Conception gives us a comprehend (unsophisticated despite the fact that it may be) of the Portend Ways, and from these we see the frequent of the Seasons (resurrection) and the laws of Leave behind & End result (Chance) connecting the use (and make a hash of) of the Earth's land, air, reserves, and living creatures. The ways of the "Gods" are stamped upon the Ways of Conception. Assistance Conception, allows one to begin to understand the Creators.

One of the reasons for the Refugee Rituals is to saturate us, and see eye to eye us, with the resolute Existence of Conception at these appointed time. Demurely cast ritual circles serve to attract and clot these energies, so that we are "submersed" in them. The outstanding that we fuse at these time of Nature's energy stream, the outstanding we become comparison Conception, and in the function of we become outstanding comparison "Her", it is easier to understand "Her", and "Her " Ways.

This is why the Ways of the Old Religion are bent according to the Ways of Conception. No matter which from the ritual circle shop, to the way we move within it, to the way in which we scribble magic (cast spells, etc) are all modeled in the wake of the beliefs of Conception. This is in which the shape up Occult Sciences comes from. It is not hocus-pocus, it is Metaphysical Science. This is why it is as well completely tricky to truthful make whatever thing up, and call up it a Custom (although this is sour what plentiful pursuit do).
