We are all a part of Mother Earth, and to understand Her and our connection to all life, we must understand the mysteries of ourselves as well. When things go wrong in our lives or we have bad experiences, we see them as lessons to learn from or challenges to overcome, not a reason to try out a new spell to make the problem go away. Getting to know oneself is a long and never ending journey. Just as the more time we spend in nature the more of it we see, the same principal applies to getting to know oneself. The deeper we look, the more we find and understand.
Witches take full responsibly for their actions.
There is no evil deity that we can blame for any misdeeds we do, and we know that it will come back to us in some form, be it karma or nature's laws. We carefully consider the ramifications of our actions, and what impact they may have on others. We are constantly working on sharpening and keeping skills that are important to our ways such as meditation and visualization, the tools we use to aid in our connection with the Earth, worship, and getting to know ourselves better. Doing all of this takes a lot of effort. We are everyday people that go to school, have jobs, children, families and all of the mundane responsibilities everyone else has, like paying bills, cleaning and grocery shopping.
