“Wicca” is an Old English word meaning magic user. A male Witch is called a Witch, not a warlock. These days a Wiccan is a person who practices a life-affirming, nature-oriented religion. In general, Wiccans honour Deity in both female and male forms.

In addition, some traditions may encompass other beliefs. Some traditions are practiced by women only and recognize only Goddesses. Others include men and recognize male Gods in addition to Goddesses. Some folk traditions may date back many centuries; others have been in existence for only a few years. The strength of Wicca lies in its diversity. It is a living, growing religious tradition.

The short answer: Witch comes from the Old English Wicce (masculine) or Wicca (feminine) meaning “magician or diviner. The word Witch is not related to Wizard which means a wise man or philosopher.
Some Witches pray (in the popular sense of the word), some don’t. Some Witches regularly meditate on the Deities of their choice; some only invoke Deities to empower a ritual or to work Magic.

As to who or what our Deities are, you will get nearly as many answers as there are Wiccans. The majority opinion seems to be that there is a transcendent Divine, the sum of all that is and that everything partakes of that Divinity. The Moon, the Sea, and the Earth can all be personified as Goddesses, although saying that Wiccans worship the Moon.

We believe that life is essentially good, and creation and destruction are part of natural cycles. Evil is that which causes harm and/or decreases the joy in the world. The source of evil is not any kind of devil or demiurge, but human action. Evil is also subjective: what is good for one may be evil for another and vice versa. For example, a man kills an antelope for food — the antelope’s death is bad to the antelope, but good to the man who must eat to live.

For magic to work it needs some essential ingredients. The most important one is that, like with religion, you must believe in the deepest part of your soul that the spell will work. You also need to have faith in yourself that by using magic you will be doing something good for yourself and for others. You must be perseverance, as the spiritual realm is timeless and may work in mysterious ways.

We never know when the spell will come through, and in exactly what way. What might be seen at first as an unwanted outcome, most of the time proves to be for the best. Without those essential ingredients your spell is doomed to fail.

The universe is composed of two realms, the natural one and the spiritual one. The natural one is composed of all of the things we can touch, see, and measure. The spiritual one is the realm of the universal consciousness and of the soul. All of us are integral part of both realms. We are both physical beings part of the natural realm and our souls are part of the spiritual one.

Most religions believe in the concept of the soul and of god or gods that are part of the spiritual realm. Most of these same religions discount the presence of magic, or make it something bad or evil and forbid its practice. At the same time some of their own practices could be considered magical in concept and action.

Whether you are a religious person interested in magic on its own, or have magical religious inclinations, magic is the same thing. It is the use by man’s immortal soul of the spiritual energy of that realm to influence events and/or things in the natural realm. Like the natural forces in the universe there are also spiritual ones and they can be used, if you know how, just as well as the natural ones.

My beliefs are that the spiritual realm is where the universal consciousness exists. This universal consciousness as a whole would be called God in most religions and our souls coexist with it. As we live and learn and die and go through the cycle countless times, our souls get more and more educated and finally get assimilated into the universal consciousness and become a sentient part of it. It is the ultimate goal of all souls to be part of the universal consciousness.

You do not have to be part of a certain group of human, or receive special training to benefit from magic. You do not even have to partake in my views of how the universe functions. My beliefs and conclusions came after a lifetime of studies and I know for a fact that everybody can benefit from magic. This is why this website came into being, as I wanted to bring my knowledge to the outside world and make the largest amount of human beings benefit from it.

One very important thing that you have to remember is that as in the natural world, in the spiritual one you are judged only by your actions. Since the spiritual forces of magic behave exactly like the natural forces, for every action there is a reaction. For every positive thing that you accomplish with magic, the return action will be positive for you. Equally for every negative thing that you attempt to do, there will be negative repercussions for you. Normally this return is guided by the power of 3 X 3.

For that reason you will not see any spells on this site that can do harm to others, and that can coerce them into doing something they do not want to do. We will strictly not perform anything kind of spell like that as it is both damaging to you and for the spell caster.

What follows was deducted from a long life of spiritual research and it forms what my spiritual beliefs are. One does not have to have faith and believe in my view of the universe to be enriched and be a better human being from it. The important thing is to live your life according to these basic principle with no regards about my views of the universe or about what your religion is, and you will help make the world a better place.

My view of the universe

I see god as the soul of the universe, and when all religions talk about a specific god they are talking about that specific incarnation of the same universal soul that can take multiple forms.
Our soul is immortal and part of this universal consciousness.
All souls are equal but different like men and women are equal but different.
Our soul is conscious and is of free will.
We all have a personal relationship with god and with every other soul in the universe as we are part of the same universal consciousness.
Our thoughts and actions describe us, and affect every soul in the universe including god’s and our own.
Our soul retains impressions of all of our actions and thoughts we do and have during our lives and carry them over into the next life.
Every action we have has an equal reaction. When we do good, good follows from it, and when we do wrong that too will follow.
Normally good or bad comes back to us with the power of 3 X 3.
The cycle of action, reaction, birth, death and rebirth is a continuum and every cycle educates our soul to reach higher planes of consciousness and to become more enlightened and at one with the universal soul (god).
Our continuous goal is to do “Good” in all of our lives so that one day our soul turns out to be so enlightened that it will become one with the universal soul (god).
There is no final judgment and repentance. We are always and will always be accountable for all of our actions.
All negative actions delay our integration with the universal soul.
Magic is one of the basic forces of nature and is part of the universal soul.
Magic has yet to be understood by modern science, but has been shown to work for millenniums.
Magic can affect our earthly life by gently pushing events in the right direction.
Magic, like all of our actions should be used for good, and thus not be used to harm others or coerce them into doing something they do not want to do.
Like all of our actions, whatever we do with magic will come back to us.

Thus said, we should make the most of our lives and live it to the fullest, as this will benefit the next one tremendously. We should always live in the present, not in the past or the future as what we do well now will make us better for the future.

My basic principles of life

My basic principles of life were derived from my beliefs. As I mentioned before, you do not need to follow my beliefs to live your life along my principles. The important thing is that both you and the world will be better by following them.

Since all of our actions and thoughts will receive an equal or greater reaction, before doing any action we should consider all of its implications. There are no small or big actions in life, every action should be considered properly before doing it. Remember that we are not judged at the end of this life and get redemption, we carry over all of our actions forever and any negative actions will delay our enlightenment.

Thus are the basic principles on which we should always base our actions

We Should

Respect people who deserve our respect.
Respect nature and all it contains.
Respect and value experience.
Have mutual respect in any relationship.
Have honor in all things.
Do the ‘RIGHT’ thing.
Eliminate all forms of prejudice.
Treat people fairly.
Be polite with all.
Be humble.
Have compassion.
Lead by virtue and example.
Strive to educate ourselves and daily learn new things.
Do everything you do well and learn to do it better.
Have an optimistic view of life.
Be non-violent.
Be generous to others with our time and money.
Work for what we get and get justly rewarded.
Be happy.
Defend the rights of other.
Help the less fortunate.

We Should Not

Discriminate.
Impose our will on others.
Get angry all the time.
Be greedy.
Lust for others and their possessions.
Be excessively proud of ourselves.
Take what is not willingly given.
Want more than your own share of the pie.
Backbite.
Gossip.

Every soul in the universe has the right to live well and be wealthy and to have sensual pleasures when we are in our corporeal forms, as long as it does not negatively affect others. If you can dream about doing something, you will always find a way to do it without hurting others. You need to have faith in yourself as it is the first step to success. You also need to have faith in magic for it to work properly.

With these simple principles you can make a big difference in the world as every good deed makes the world better. Remember that respect and not imposing your will on others is the first step to enlightenment.

I am the Lost Bearded White Brother and was born a long time ago in a cold faraway land. Though I was born in a Catholic family and was baptized such, at home we never really had a spiritual life. I even had an uncle, who passed away when I was still a child, who was a Catholic priest and the only thing I really remember from him was his love of the good things in life like good wine and good food. It must have impressed me a lot, because that too has been a lifelong quest, but I digress…

I started reading early, even before starting school. A few years later I was reading at least 6 books a week, and since that tender age I have been a voracious reader. Since I was very young I have always been interested in all things occult. The lack of any spiritual life at home, and my parent’s lack of response to my many questions on the subject launched me into a lifelong quest to learn about the mysteries of life. My mother had some interests in the occult and I borrowed some of her numerous books on the subject, as I inherited my thirst for reading from her, and I started to search all of the resources that were available to me at the time. I read about the various organized religions, and became disenchanted with all of them. More and more I became interested in the core philosophies of most religions and how they can be applied to the way we act and live, and to magic that can be used to better mankind.

Though I still consider myself a Catholic by indoctrination, for year I have been practicing my own form of religion or better worded, my own beliefs based on all of the philosophies and religions I studied and on magic. It involves at its core a great respect for others and for nature, and the prime goal to live my life to its fullest and to better myself and mankind daily.

Another interest passed on to me by my mother was that of archeology. She always says that if she could relive her life, she would formally study this subject. When I was growing up there was a lot of interest in mysticism and in the ancient civilizations, especially the ones from Latin America. I remember reading about the great archeological sites of those faraway warm climes, and dreaming about visiting there one day. As I always say “If there is a wish, there is a way”! I ended up moving permanently to Mexico over 6 years ago after meeting a wonderful Mexican woman and marrying her some years earlier. I always believed in the duality of the universe, for every Ying there is a Yang, for every Man there is a Woman, and for every cold place there is a warm one.

I brought to this warm country, my new home, my brand of magic that is rooted in the cold climes and traditions of Northern Europe, and I have been avidly studying the local form of magic that has its roots in indigenous spiritualism and shamanism, in Spanish magic, and various other imported influences, especially the heavy one of the Catholic Church. I have taken from all of those influences the aspects that work well with my beliefs and have been using this potent blend of magic to better myself and those next to me. I have also read a lot of indigenous legends pervasive in all of the old southern civilizations about the long lost learned foreigner that will return in times of turmoil to bring spiritual help and education to the lands of the south.

These current times are nothing but tumultuous and I assume the mantle of High Priest to those who wish to follow me. I only promote goodness and harmony, and thus will only offer help to those seeking such. I plan to offer my magical powers to help those in need. To those who wish to do harm to others, to force others to do things against their will, or to gain things that are not theirs to get, please look somewhere else because I will never do that kind of magical work.

To those in search of some spiritual direction, if you would please have a look at what my beliefs are. It is not a religion, and I do not want to organize it as such, as with every organized religion comes dogma, and with dogma comes prejudice, and with prejudice comes lack of respect, and so on… Those basic principles are my beliefs, and if all passing through here can live a little more along those lines daily, the world would become a much better place to live in. I hope from the deepest part of my soul that such changes will happen and that the world will be better for it, even if only one more person follow parts of those simple beliefs.
