be found at the center of our being where the spark meets its source]. The gods are a racted to our rituals because of the sacred signs that we use [in which they recognize the descendants of those who openly venerated them], and because of our worship (which is vitality). They are a racted by the ritual fires and incense, and by the purity of our naked bodies. They give and take the vital essences that we both need, through the power that we raise [for it is in this that we interface with the gods]. Each god is like us for our ways are but reflec ons of theirs. Each God has likes and dislikes, and must be approached in accordance. Each God is linked to the culture of the people who give worship to it, and must be called by the appropriate es [for it is in established pa erns that the gods recognize themselves in connection with the people that call upon them]. Yet beyond all of this are the God and Goddess who together are the One; herein does the true worship belong [and that “truth” is the purity of the divine that is less diluted by the limita on of human perception and expectation].
Concerning The Goddess The goddess is the life force inasmuch as she is the fer lity in all things. It is through her ac vity that we are born, and that seeds push up through the earth and grow into plants. She moves the god to create through his desire for her. The goddess is the joy of life, she is the passion to live. Compassion, love, gentleness, and kindness are the essence of her spirit. All women carry the goddess within in various aspects and degrees. Yet there is a duality in all things, and the goddess can manifest as sterility, vengeance, and destruction. She is the soul of nature. The goddess rules the night, and the moon is her symbol. All women are linked to her through the moon, which influences the flow of blood. The night is the essence of the mystery which all women possess. This is the elusive quality which all women bear, but can never be known or touched upon. The desire of men for women is the desire of god for goddess. It is the a rac on of the life force. The goddess is known as the Queen of Heaven. She is clothed in stars and wears a silver crown adorned with a crescent moon. She is the Earth Mother, clothed in green and endowed with large breasts that rise as rounded hills rise beyond the lush green meadows. She is pregnant with the Child of Life, which she bears each year. She is the Virgin Maiden, naked and beau ful. She is youth and lust for life. She is the Enchantress and Temptress. She is all women. The goddess does not accept live sacrifices as were given in ancient mes. She is the goddess of life and all living things. She demands respect for life. If you give offerings in her honor, then better it be of fruits or grains, or things of beauty. The goddess is Queen of all the streghe, which she calls Her Hidden Children. We are her servants, she is not ours. She gives us life and receives us in the A erworld. She teaches us the ways of nature and spirit. She gives us power and magic. She reveals all mysteries and gives light to the night. And to the wise, she imparts her sacred name.
Concerning The God The god is known as the stern and demanding aspect of divinity. He is perceived as the death force that transforms. He is Lord of the A erworld who restores and rests the soul, which is prepared for a new life. This is performed through the union of the god and goddess.
