Call upon the Goddess and God to protect you and teach you the secrets of magic. Ask stones and plants to reveal their powers-and listen.
Scott Cunningham - American author on Wicca and Pagan rituals
Reminds me why I am not Wiccan... I can be pretty vindictive, and revenge is a concept I like rather well.
However, if someone labels his-/herself as Wiccan, I think they should do their best to follow the moral guidelines.
(My "compass" is the pink hippo - with every decision I make, I ask myself whether, if there is a Last Judgement and a pink hippo devours everybody who fails, would I be willing to be devoured as a consequence of this specific action.)
I have to agree with Diandra on the why I'm not Wiccan. I go by my own rules and sometimes one must harm. I have to say I've only done it twice in all my years, but it is a necessary part of my practice.
I am not wiccan either. But I do like the 13 virtues of a witch I try to do my best to live up to them. Everyone always talks about the rede. But not very much on the virtues. I think the virtues are by far a better set of guide lines. LOL Witchy hug all the same. Inis
I find it hard sometimes not to Harm None, I think it has to exclude people who harm children, my family and friends and animals. But other wise it is my mantra. I agree with Inis, the 13 virtues of a witch are awesome and I try to live them as well. Both are my favorite things.
