A popular tradition in Witchcraft is love craft, which is based on the simple tenet: 'Love is the law'. As love is healing, nurturing, motivating and empowering, it is by far the most powerful of all human emotions. Love is said to be able to 'conquer all'. It is not only the greatest source of magical power, it is magic in itself.
Practitioners of this tradition utilize visualization techniques in conjunction with the raising, directing and release of love energy in the casting of spells. Regardless of the goal of the spell, whether it be for healing, prosperity, obtaining affection or passion, breaking curses, promoting fertility or awakening psychic powers, it is always powered by love, but above all by the will of the witch.
Witchcraft is a way of opening up to an expansion of consciousness, but it does not automatically bestow spiritual insights. The initiator can do no more than open the gate. It is the student who must climb the path. And mind you, Witchcraft is a path not for many.
As a Witch would say "You began your actual study many centuries ago. The wheel has started turning. It will stop only when the purpose is fulfilled. Maybe you have already realized the purpose. Above all else, there was a path on which you were meant to walk. Recognize it, just as it knows you.
"Be like Isis (Egyptian goddess of fertility associated with magic), a woman/man complete in yourself. Learn the language of enchantment but not of deceit. Learn how to play the games life offers. Take from life the part you wish to play, but play it with a regal demeanour. Even with power at your feet, crush not kindness and compassion, without which power is the tool of fools.
"Learn from what is around you, from the elements; absorb, assimilate and bestow a legacy on your children."
