  • @Temarikatt Because stealing, murder, rape & all these things that are seen as evil are only so because they result in harming yourself & the community.

    However if they were seen is helping yourself & the community they would be classed as good.

    War is a perfect example of this, both sides believe they are doing good.

    However both sides are still killing for no reason & both sides believe the other side is evil.

    Good & evil are completely subjective & in our minds.

  • @Lumiel31 either way it does not make it any less relevant. If we looked at our ancestors a thousand years ago, their believes would look completely different from those who came a thousand years before them. It does not make it any less important, it just changes to fit with the times. Wicca today or any other pagan religion for that matter can not be like it was a thousand years ago because the world is a completely different today than it was thousand years ago. Evolve or die.

  • omg that guys teeth

  • @SorchaDarkMoon Please, she's obviously an attention whore.

  • the rise of witches,,has come,,,,,the Christianity was misunderstood about the wiccan beliefs....it must not be done!.. that's why now a day many country/society recognized wicca it is because we're not SATAN followers!

    mostly here in Phillipines,,,,,,,)O( blessed us!

    we have our LAW! we dont harm at all!

  • @SorchaDarkMoon I think you may have misunderstood my point. Altering one's appearance to look like a porn actress with make-up manufactured from oil by-products, is far removed from being spiritually close to Nature.

  • @SorchaDarkMoon I understand that women will wear make-up of course and that adorning one's face or body is an ancient practice, for women and for men also. I do not see you as someone expressing vanity(saw your profile pic), whereas Fiona Horne is pornified, selling books and the very first sentence that comes out of her mouth in this video is simply not true and badly misinformed. She is a businesswoman far removed from spirituality.

  • @practicepants - women have been using cosmetic to enhance their appearance for thousands of years. the celts, the egyptians, african tribes etc. and all of them practised an ancient form of paganism or some type of earth religion. makeup and altering ones appearance is not a new thing.

  • @practicepants - ok i do understand your point, but does that mean that think that charmingpixieflora, tiptoechick and theshoewhisperer (just to name a few fellow YTs) are vain as well? they ALL wear makeup, pluck their eyebrows, do their hair etc. and i dont see any of them as going against witchcraft and/or the old ways just for groomin themselves. do you know that the ancient celtic women stained their eyebrows with berries to darken them and used the same berry juice as cheek and lip rouge?

  • @SorchaDarkMoon Really? You seriously don't see vanity there? Beauty is about indicators of health, not plucking your eyebrows, dyeing your hair and caking yourself in make-up. This is not equal rights for women at all - it's the opposite.

    The principles of witchcraft(real witchcraft, not invented "Wicca") are no different to that of permaculture - to work with Nature and become one with it. Fiona Horne's appearance screams that she is working against Nature, not with it.

  • @practicepants how exactly do you see her as being vain?? because she takes care of herself and is obviously beautiful? that makes her vain?!! lol you dont have to look like a dirty scrub to be a educated and powerful witch. what a stupid comment you've made. this is the shit that pisses me off with the pagan community. we all preach about equal rights and stopping discrimination but yet most of us, not all but most are the worst offenders! it's dispicable!

  • Looking at Fiona Horne and her obvious vanity, this woman knows nothing of real witchcraft.
