The Beginning of Witches
Our Lady taught the Witches the wisdom of the universe. They were instructed how to cast the circle of art and how to communicate with Spirit, because the humans of Earth had forgotten. She taught them how to talk to the dead, how to honor their ancestors and succession of teachers, and how to focus the mind and cast a spell. In each brain She imprinted the patterns of all the energies in the solar system, and how to work magick by the moon and stars. The Lord taught the witches how to meld with the elements and spirits of air, fire, water, and earth, and to commune with the animal and plant kingdoms. He taught them weather magick and healing arts with energy and plants~~and most of all, like their ancestors before them, He taught them how to protect themselves and how to survive. Each Witch was given the rites of purification and the ability to tap into his or her own lineage of creation.
Together, the Lord and Lady gave the humans the Witches Pyramid: To Know, To Will, To Dare, and To Be Silent, because They knew that not all humans on Earth would welcome these special beings of magick and love. The instruction complete, the Witches were sent to every culture and every tribe on the planet Earth, being born of the people but carrying the mission of the Divine. In this way they have been known by many names and many races, yet, in soul, Witches they remain. Above all, they were given the message that the Goddess lives.
Even with the Great Work of the magickal people, perfect love and perfect trust did not come easily. Many religions rose among the people to honor the Mother and Father, but each , in turn, cast out our Mother, thinking that worshiping the God alone would bring them the riches and strength they needed. In His disappointment of their actions, the Lord abandoned each religion, allowing them to crumble and die in the dust of Earth. Rather than create beauty and joy, the humans sought to destroy one another, to spread the sickness of greed and despair among their own. They forgot that the power within is greater than the power over one another.
The people would not listen to the Witches. Instead , they burned them.
Thus, over times of great trial and suffering, the Witches became the hidden children, conducting their rites in secret lest they risk capture and death at the hands of the fearful humans and their terrible dogma. As the world grew dark with the ignorance and hate created by the humans, evil arose like a black steam from the cauldron of their minds, covering the planet with negative energy, the Lady whispered to the Witches that they should draw power from her body of the Moon and the Lord enchanted the vibrant rays of the sun to instill them with strength. "The Moon and the Sun are beacons of the Great Work" they said. "As long as they shine, you may draw from them whatever energy you may need, and when you look to these symbols in the heavens you will know that We are within you. There is no part of you that is not of the Gods"
