Merry meet Kristi,
The tarot can seem daunting but through the podcasts, videos, and chats you’ll be connecting the dots in no time. I’m excited to get home and get them going! See you soon!Merry Meet Laurel! I’ve been researching Slavic traditions for a few years now, there may be some overlap with Ukrainian customs. You’re going to love the tarot course for what you are doing.
Most of the course materials are reviewed by others on the Spectrum, but if you need a different mode of learning (more visual, more audio, etc.) let me know.
Great to have you here and blessed be!
Welcome Rob! You and your family have been through a lot. It is wonderful to have you here! Blessings and thank you!
Exactly! Although there are a few Wiccans who view it much like a commandment, Wiccans and Witches as a whole see it more with the original intention. the word rede itself derives from the Latin, Saxon, and German for advice, help, counsel. It is there to help you make decisions and plans when faced with ethical or moral dilemmas.
When you look at Aradia, Gospel of the Witches (Charles Godfrey Leland, 1899) you see other mentions of using curses and hexes by oppressed Witches. Marginalized people have often found a home in Witchcraft as is evident by this book (which was very influential in the development of modern Witchcraft). The words Aradia imparted to her pupils in this book include:
And ye shall all be freed from slavery,
And so ye shall be free in everything;
And as the sign that ye are truly free,
Ye shall be naked in your rites, both men
And women also: this shall last until
The last of your oppressors shall be dead;I’m adding the book to the Comprehensive Witchcraft course today so you can take a look at this historical work in its entirety.
