Hello ppl..
Im back, well was kinda busy these days…
As I have already mentioned in the previous posts this post is about dedication to wicca..
Before get dedicated, u should understand certain things and be aware of what you going to do….
It is always better to get into the theory, before you jump into practice, this is no game you should be truthful to the “The Goddess and The God”.
Generally, you can easily find wiccans around you, through sites like www.witchvox.com.get you can them and learn their way of life. One year of serious research and complete dedication is enough to get into the religion, don’t ever forget the SABBATS, they give you the energy, the purpose and lot more.
To get into wicca officially, you should have some spiritual link with nature,
If you have ever felt an unexplained happiness when you go to places which are close to nature, if you have strong bonds with animals, if you have high intuition, if you can feel the spirits then you are perfectly fit to be a wiccan.
So if you satisfy the above conditions, get into contemplation, a month before you actually get dedicated. Contemplation is to learn everything that could be an aid to your path in the craft.like you can learn reiki, pranic healing, runes, feather magick, candle magick, the list goes on…
The dedication should be done on the New Moon, preferably in the night.
You should take a bath before you get the dedication,CLEANLINESS IS GODLINESS.you should be ready with some new clothes and knife and other things used on the altar.So this bath is not so normal, you have to take a litte salt and some pure oil, and some frankincense, myrhh etc, and take bath leisurely, during this bath, the salt washes away the negative energy from you and the oils make you receptive to positive energy. When you are over with the bath, come out skyclad and burn your old dress and wear a new dress, if necessary. You should have thought of your wiccan name. then you can cast a circle and then invoke elementals( AIR, WATER, EARTH, FIRE) and as soon as you invoke the elementals, you should visualise them around you and then you should visualize a white light formed of the elementals surrounding you and protecting you, after this you will feel a difference in your atmosphere, then call upon your guardian angel and invoke the goddess and the god and ask them to accept you into the path, as a priest or priestess with your wiccan name. Then you can meditate on the elementals and the goddess and the god.
Finally toast the Gods and Guardians saying:Merry meet, merry part, and merry meet again.
Here you had to use some chantings while getting dedicated, you can prepare your own chants, so that they are meaningful to you, and it should praise the GODDESS, GOD, THE ELEMENTALS, and gives you PROTECTION.
There are lots of chants available online you can use one.
FAQ’S
1. can I get dedicated?
Yes, anyone can get dedicated, but you have to cleanse yourself from inside out.
You should have clear idea of what you are doing, you just should not get into wicca because your friend has, the consequence can be dangerous.
2. do we need some guide to get dedication?

O Father God,
Answers to all mysteries and yet mysteries unanswered;
In this place of power I open myself to Your Essence.
In this place and in this time I am changed;
From hence forth I walk the Paths of the Craft.
I dedicate myself to you, Mother Goddess and Father God.
7. why do we need to burn our old clothes?
The burning of your old clothes are symbolic representation of your burning up your old personality, old bad habits, your fear, your ego, your pride.
After getting dedicated you have to get into inititation and different degrees of initiation.
However I have tried to correct to my knowledge in the above article, it is always possible to commit mistake, if you find anything wrong, you can suggest me. Also give your opinion on this article.

wicca and the rules
Hello ppl..
Today im goin to tell u about the wiccan religion...
Wicca is a pagan religion, it is more concerned with way of living...
Wiccans believe in love, in harmony, in beauty, in perfection...
They as other pagan religion centred on earth and goddess, however there are other dieties as well....
Wicca and witchcraft is very much closely related, a witch is a wiccan but a wiccan may not be a witch.The wiccans do magick based on the moon phases and other festivities.They follow the lunar month.

The wiccans follow the wiccan rede, a set of guidelines to live a happy life...
The rede is given as
Bide within the Law you must, in perfect Love and perfect Trust.
Live you must and let to live, fairly take and fairly give.
For tread the Circle thrice about to keep unwelcome spirits out.
To bind the spell well every time, let the spell be said in rhyme.
Light of eye and soft of touch, speak you little, listen much.
Honor the Old Ones in deed and name, let love and light be our guides again.
Deosil go by the waxing moon, chanting out the joyful tune.
Widdershins go when the moon doth wane, and the werewolf howls by the dread wolfsbane.
When the Lady's moon is new, kiss the hand to her times two.
When the moon rides at Her peak, then your heart's desire seek.
Heed the North winds mighty gale, lock the door and trim the sail.
When the Wind blows from the East, expect the new and set the feast.
When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss you on the mouth.
When the wind whispers from the West, all hearts will find peace and rest.
Nine woods in the Cauldron go, burn them fast and burn them slow.
Birch in the fire goes to represent what the Lady knows.
Oak in the forest towers with might in the fire it brings the God's insight.
Rowan is a tree of power causing life and magick to flower.
Willows at the waterside stand ready to help us to the Summerland.
Hawthorn is burned to purify and to draw faerie to your eye.
Hazel - the tree of wisdom and learning - adds its strength to the bright fire burning.
White are the flowers of the Apple tree that bring us fruits of fertility.
Grapes grow upon the vine giving us both joy and wine.
Fir does mark the evergreen to represent immortality seen.
Elder is the Lady's tree burn it not or cursed you'll be.
Four times the Major Sabbats mark in the light and in the dark.
As the old year starts to wane the new begins, it's now Samhain.
When the time for Imbolc shows watch for flowers through the snows.
When the wheel begins to turn soon the Beltane fires will burn.
As the wheel turns to Lammas night power is brought to magick rite.
Four times the Minor Sabbats fall use the Sun to mark them all.
When the wheel has turned to Yule light the log the Horned One rule.
In the spring, when night equals day time for Ostara to come our way.
Whent the Sun has reached it's height time for Oak and Holly fight.
Harvesting comes to one and all whent the Autumn Equinox does fall.
Heed the flower, bush, and tree By the Lady blessed you'll be.
Where the rippling waters go cast a stone, the truth you'll know.
When you have and hold a need, harken not to others greed.
With a fool no season spend or be counted as his friend.
Merry Meet and Merry Part bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Three-fold Laws you should three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is enow wear the star upon your brow.
Be true in love this you must do unless your love is fake to you.
Eight words the Rede fulfill "And ye harm none, do what ye will."
most of the rede is about the rules to perform magick.....
the two hilighted redes are the most important ones, according to three fold law, whatever you do, will be returned to you in three folds may it be good or bad.And the final one says that you can do anything but it should harm none.
we will shed some light on initiation,sabaths and magick in the next few days...
take care
blessed be...
