We are of the Old Ways, among those who walk with the Goddess and God and receive Their love.
Keep the Sabbats and Esbat to the best of your abilities, for to do otherwise is to lesson your connections 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 worshipped.
Those of our ways are kind to all creatures, for hurtful thoughts are quite 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 whom you choose, but teach not to those who would use your instructions for destruction or control. Also, teach not to boost pride, for ever remember: s/he who teaches for vain-glory shall take little pride in her handiwork:s/he 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 discared, 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 God and Goddess on us all.
THE NATURE OF OUR WAY
As often as possible, hold the rites in forests, by the seashore, on deserted mountain tops or near tranquil lakes. If this is impossible a garden or some chamber shall suffice, if it is readied with fumes or flowers.
Seek out wisdom in books, rare manuscripts and cryptic poems if you will, but seek it out also in simple stones and fragile herbs and in the cries of wild birds. Listen to the whisperings of the wind and the roar of water if you would discover magick, for it is here that the old secrets are preserved.
Books contain words; trees contain energies and wisdom books never dreamt of.
Ever remember the the Old Ways are constantly revealing themselves. Therefore be as the river willow that bends and sways with the wind. That which remains changeless shall outlive it's spirit, but that which evolves and grows will shine for centuries.
Mock not the rituals or spells of another, for who can say yours are greater in power or wisdom?
Ensure that your actions are honorable, for all that you do shall return to you three-fold, good or bane.
Be wary of one who would dominate you, who would control and manipulate your workings and reverences. True reverence for the Goddess and God occurs within. Look with suspicion on any who would twist worship from you for their own gain and glory, but welcome those priestesses and priests who are suffused with love.
Honor all living things, for we are of the bird, the fish, the bee, Destroy not life save it be to preserve your own.
And this is the nature of our way.
THE LAW OF THE POWER
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.
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 it's 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. 作者: 碎碎念 时间: 2012-6-2 17:43
