Welcome and Merry Meet!
Our Basic Philosophy and Beliefs
We concieve of the Creative Power in the Universe as manifesting through polarity - as masculine and feminine forces and that this same Creative Power lives within all people and functions through the interactions of Nature. We value neither male nor female above the other; but rather, believe them to be equal and necessary to one another.
We recognize other planes of "Being" than the physical one on which we reside. We recognize the power of interaction of those planes which provides the basis for paranormal phenomena or Magick.
We see Religion and Magick as wisdom-in-living, and as being aware of and in harmony with the Universe and our place within it. We acknowledge a depth of powers and understanding which is greater than is apparent to the average person. Because they are often "unknown," these powers are often called "occult" or "supernatural", but we see them as that which is the potential of all humans.
We practice symbolic Rites to attune ourselves with the natural rhythms of life's forces, marked by the phases of the Moon, the solstices, equinoxes, and the cross-quarter Sabbats.
We seek the affirmation and fulfillment of life in a continuation of cycles of evolution and the development of consciousness. We seek within Nature, the Universe, and ourselves for that which is contributory and beneficial to our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual knowledge and well-being.
We recognize that our philosophy gives us a unique responsibility within our environment. We seek to live in harmony with Nature, in a balance that promotes the continued development of our life, and in cooperation with the elements of Nature.
Among our goals is to aid and encourage all members to progress and improve themselves mentally, physically, and spiritually. We seek to make our everyday life a reflection of our inner awareness. We seek to work for a better understanding of; and a more wholistic relationship between man/woman, Nature and the Infinite.
We Teach the Following Precepts:
A Metaphysical approach to life, primarily based on Wiccan teachings and traditions. However, we restrict ourselves to no one creed or tradition; rather, we seek knowledge and wisdom where-ever it may be found.
That Magick, which is action in accordance with will, and actualization of mental and other energies, can be used for development of the consciousness, and for the aid and benefit of humankind.
That if we walk in Balance and Harmony with Nature and the Infinite, our needs will be provided for.
That within the framework of the Universe, there are devic and elemental forces and realms which may be understood and interacted with, and the means and methods for doing so.
That "As Above So Below" or that the microcosom (humankind) is a minature of the macrocosom (Divinity), and that through interlocking psychic forces Divinity exists within each man and woman.
That souls reincarnate in order to learn valuable lessons on the pathway to ultimate enlightenment, and that the Law of Karma (or Three-Fold Return) governs which lessons are to be learned in what manner.
That each person is an individual yet we are all kindred spirits in the search for knowledge and on the path to the Infinite. Therefore we should cooperate and aid one another whenever possible, in the spirit of Prefect Love and Perfect Trust, and that we should avoid disputes and violence in our dealings with one another.
