The Law of Power
1. The power that you are given by the Gods and Goddess should never be used to cause harm or control others. However, should the need arise and you find that you need to protect yourself, your life or the lives of others, then you shall use the power given to you by the Gods and Goddesses to protect those who need protection.
2. You should only use the power given to you by the Gods and Goddesses as the need arises.
3. If you are going to use the power given to you by the Gods and Goddesses for personal gain, then you must see to it that there will be no harm done to anyone else. (There are many that do not believe in using our power for personal gain, but if you think about it, anytime you do a spell to help someone that is personal gain because you will feel better about yourself for helping, therefore you have used the power for personal gain.)
4. You should not take money as payment for using your power. Doing so can quickly take you over.
5. Using the powers given to you by the Gods and Goddesses for prideful gain will cheapen the mysteries of Wicca, Witchcraft, Paganism and Magick as a whole, therefore it is not wise to use the power for such means.
6. You must always remember that the power given to by the Gods and Goddesses is a sacred gift. Never misuse or abuse the power as it can be taken away from you just as easily as it was given to you.
7. This is the Law of Power.
