Living Wicca: A Further Guide for the Solitary Practitioner

We are not on this planet to ask forgiveness of our deities

Destroy not life save it be to preserve your own.

Don’t let teaching rule your life. It can be one aspect of it, and an important, fulfilling aspect, but it shouldn’t become the sole purpose of your existence.

Ensure that your actions are honorable, for all that you do shall return to you threefold, good or bane.

Harm none. This, the oldest law, is not open to interpretation or change.

Wiccans aren’t evangelical. We have no need to go out and spread the word.

Some Wiccans express a slightly different concept known as the Law of Three or the Threefold Law. This states that anything we do returns to us in triple strength.

Thought, then, is a necessary part of learning solitary Wicca. It can be summed up in the following manner: • Determine questions (if necessary). • Study to uncover knowledge. • Determine your feelings concerning this knowledge. Rely on your intuition. • Based on this, determine what information is applicable to your solitary Wiccan practice.

Finally, don’t see reading as a passive activity. Make it an active process in which you play a vital role.

Books have always been tools of magic. With the turn of the page, we can be transported to the bottom of the ocean; to the limitless desert; to the surface of the moon. Books can lift our spirits, heal our wounds, steel our courage, and strengthen our religious resolve. They can also arouse our curiosity, sharpen our minds, teach us new skills, and alter our opinions. Books are powerful tools of change.
