| The Law of Power 1. The Power shall not be used to bring harm, to injure or to control others. But if the need arises, the Power shall be used to protect your life or the lives of others. 2. The Power is used only as need dictates. 3. The Power can be used for your own gain; as long as by doing so you harm none. 4. It is unwise to accept money for the use of the Power, for it quickly controls its taker. Be not as those of other religions. 5. Use not the Power for prideful gain, for such cheapens the mysteries of Wicca and Magick. 6. Ever remember that the Power is a sacred gift of the Goddess and the God, and should never be misused or abused. 7. And this is the Law of the Power. The Four Powers of the Magus The Four Powers of the Magus are the personal attributes traditionally necessary and required for the successful use and practice of magick. These are - To Know, To Dare, To Will, and To Be Silent. Without these four attributes combined, the individual will never be successful in magick. The reasoning is quite simple; none of the attributes mentioned are enough in themselves, as all four attributes must be present to balance each other out. For instance: To Know - Knowledge is no good, without the will and audacity to see magick done. To Dare � Audacity is no good, without the knowledge and will to see magick done. To Will � Will power is no good, without the knowledge and audacity to see magick done. To Be Silent � What good are the above, without the discretion to remain silent until the magick is done? To reveal your magick before it is done, dissipates it�s power and effectiveness. So, anyone aspiring to use magick, he/see needs a knowledge of what he/see is doing, the audacity to use it, the will power to control it, and the discretion to remain silent till the work is done. |
