They also have duel supreme beings: God & a Goddess. Wiccan Rede: A moral code for all witches: "An ye harm none, do what ye will." The basic idea is that as long as witches do not harm anyone with their potions and spells, they are free to do, as they like. That does not mean that all follow this, but at that point they would be more on the side of a Satanists. Witch: a person, male or female, who follows the ways of witchcraft. A witch is not evil, yet if a witch uses her powers for evil she/he will regret it. A witch can also become evil if she/he makes a pack with darkness and become something they are not and in a way become a devil. |
