Full Moons and Wiccan Truths

What Samhain (Soo-Weeen) would be complete without a full, cold moon hovering deceptively close to the ground, and a Black Cat, to watch whatever events may transpire as the spirits of the Dead walk the earth of a Samhain night??




Since Samhain/Halloween is a traditionally Witchy holiday, what better time to share the the 'real' Wiccan Rede. This is the basis for Wiccan behaviour and morality, not quite the wicked witch in Sleeping Beauty, eh?

Yes, there are bad witches just as all faiths are cursed with bad apples, but they are not all witches. Nor are Wiccan folk Satanists. We do not worship Satan, nor do we wish to. Wiccan folk ( and most Pagan faiths as well) seek balance, harmony with, and a reverence for life in the practice of their faith.




This image calls to mind the term "Fairy Throne", that is a description of the bare patch left in the centre of a patch of mushrooms where the soil had been drained of nutrients by the growth of fungi, and now, perforce, must remain fallow and regain its fertility.

Still and all, to dance in a Fairy Throne, and meet the Queen of the Fairies would be wondrous!! If one wishes to see a non-Hollywood description of wiccan life, find the book "Cat Magic" by Whitley Strieber. You may find yourself very surprised by something much closer to the truth of Wiccan ways.
