| The Ordains | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Ordains are a set of spiritual, practical and coven laws that govern those who practice Wicca. There are three basic categories; spiritual laws, Practical laws and craft law. Spiritual law applies to all magical people. Practical laws are almost like traditions. They are guidelines set down by those who practiced before us. Craft law belongs to group hierarchy. This set of laws is also dived by one category for general Wiccan governing and secondly by guidelines set down by each coven. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
