Initiation, Something Concealed, A Secret Thing


Keywords: Change.
Meanings: The “x” marks represent the four main phases of the moon and so you can expect changes to happen within the next 28 days. This is a particularly feminine stone and often appears in response to questions about women’s issues. The Moon rune is a messenger. It is telling you to be aware that major changes are coming to your life. Consult the runes closest to it to determine whether those changes are negative or positive.


C, sometimes read as K, is Coll, which is the Hazel tree. August is known as the Hazel Moon, because this is when Hazel nuts appear on the trees–the world Coll translates to “the life force inside you”, and what better symbol of life than the nut itself? Hazel is associated with wisdom and creativity and knowledge. Sometimes it is connected in Celtic lore with magical springs, sacred wells, and divination.
Hazel was a handy tree to have around. It was used by many English pilgrims to make staffs for use upon the road–not only was it a sturdy walking stick, it also provided a modicum of self-defense for weary travelers. Certainly, it could have been used as well for ritual. Hazel was used in weaving of baskets by medieval folk, and the leaves were fed to cattle because it was believed this would increase the cow’s supply of milk.
In the Irish myth cycles, there is a tale that nine hazel nuts dropped into a sacred pool. A salmon came along in the pool and gobbled up the nuts, which then imbued him with wisdom. A variation of the story appears in the legend of Finn Mac Cumhail, who ate the salmon and then took on the knowledge and wisdom of the fish. Note that Mac Cumhail is often translated as Mac Coll.
Mundane Aspects: Take advantage of your own artistry or creativity, and share your knowledge with others so they too can practice these arts. Lead by example, and teach those who wish to learn. Find inspiration for your creative gifts, whatever your talent may be.
Magical Aspects: Let the divine guide you in your creative journey. Speak to the gods through your art, and be rewarded with inspiration. If you’re stuck in a creative rut, call upon the Divine to send you a Muse.


Deep Waters Penetrated and drawn to the surface:
The Superior Person refreshes the people with constant encouragement to help one another.
Encampments, settlements, walled cities, whole empires may rise and fall, yet the Well at the center endures, never drying to dust, never overflowing.
It served those before and will serve those after.
Again and again you may draw from the Well, but if the bucket breaks or the rope is too short there will be misfortune.
There is a Source common to us all.
Jung named it the Collective Unconscious.
Others hail it as God within.
Inside each of us are dreamlike symbols and archetypes, emotions and instincts that we share with every other human being.
When we feel a lonely separateness from others, it is not because this Well within has dried up, but because we have lost the means to reach its waters.
You need to reclaim the tools necessary to penetrate to the depths of your fellows.
Then the bonds you build will be as timeless and inexhaustible as the Well that nourishes them.


The main strength of the Seven is the ability to think. Think for real. That is, they can set a question and then use logic, erudition and insight to find the answer.
In fact, quite a few are capable of doing such, which gives you a distinct advantage in most situations. It is quite natural that people regard you as a wise advisor.
Another positive quality is your inner tranquility. You can fire up and start yelling because of any trifle, but it is virtually impossible to bring you out of balance and make you lose your head.
Clearly negative features of the Seven are their inherent cynicism, misanthropy, groundless suspicion and certain wildness in their behavior.
You do not care about what they think or say, so you do not give yourself trouble to show good manners, or even common courtesy. If you want to, you can “teach a lesson in etiquette” in such an insulting form that the other person will feel offended.
Moreover, you seize every moment to demonstrate your independence and unwillingness to be part of the crowd. So you will never become a darling of all hearts.

Thanks to the highly anticipated Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries – sitting directly over your seventh house of commitments and relationships — this marks a once-in-a-lifetime reset around partnerships and agreements.

Some of you may commit to a creative pursuit, step into parenthood or maybe even mentorship. Communication and learning are also turning points, especially during eclipses, which shape how information flows in and out of your life.

The year 2026 will be especially personal, Aquarius.

This year’s eclipses bring major emotional turning points. February’s solar eclipse, for instance, signals…

I think that (almost) everyone found out about the Craft while in a quest for power, but we all discovered that Wicca isn’t about power or revenge at all. I myself was quite surprised when I read that this Path had only one law: “An It Harm None, Do What Ye Will”. “Easy!” I naively thought, but as I studied more about philosophy the more I understood that it wouldn’t be like so.
You have to ponder every future deed, consider any possible outcome and, basically, avoid getting in karma’s “To Do List” in terms of negativity. But is the Rede enough? Certainly it must have been for those whom accepted it after Doreen Valiente publicized it, but nowadays, there are so many possibilities and choices that I guess it can become harder for neophytes – and even those who have been acquainted to Wicca for several years – to know what do in every situation, it some times is for me.
There are so many new ways of interacting (namely, instant messaging) , new devices and distractions that it’s easy to get lost in them and forget the almost overwhelming power of our capability of choice. This is why I am going to show you what I see as the most important things to consider.
First, comes Justice. We all have to learn (if we already haven’t) to see everything that surrounds us in an unbiased way. This means that we must think as if we were another person when judging something, obviously because our personalities get in the way. I think that for those with a particularly “colorful” religious past (have followed more than one religion or, at some point, none) this is easy; I, for instance, can see the world through three different viewpoints: a Pagan one, an atheist one a Satanic one (I studied and practiced Satanism for some time) .
This allows me to be quite fairer when it comes to deciding how to treat others. If you can’t judge wisely, someone is bound to get hurt, even yourself.
Truth is the following point to bear in mind. I think that everybody has lied at least once in his or her life. Deceiving is a natural thing and we humans are quite good at it. I am not going to condemn lying – not at all! I’m all for lying, when there is a good reason for it. I only lie when I need to and, sometimes, when it’s the easiest way out of trouble. But I know that truth is important and I avoid lying to those closest to me, the Gods included, because every relationship is based on trust and honesty. If you can’t be honest to those you like the most, then you might as well not be with them, because you will always have something to hide.
A lie that cannot be “seen” doesn’t hurt, but once it is revealed the one who will receive most of the damage will be the liar. So, only lie when you really must, otherwise you’ll become Peter from “Peter and the Wolf”.
Next comes Honour, which is trickiest part. We all have been hurt by others, by various reasons, either sexuality, religion, personality, skin colour etc, and we all felt like it was time for some payback, but, most likely, we didn’t do anything and waited for karma to do its thing.
Personally, I believe that honour is essential and we have to defend it (I can almost hear the cries of rioters) . There are non-aggressive ways of defending yourself.
For example: imagine an old foe of yours becomes a work colleague. You obviously fear what he/she might attempt to do, so you decide to “rally the troops” (the colleagues you trust the most) and tell them about the person so they know why you dislike the person, but let them do as they wish.
If you practise Magic, then you are most likely to try to prevent any harm from being done to you by using it and a simple spell to “dissolve” the other person’s negative thoughts. That way, neither of you is harmed. See? There is such as thing as a peaceful defence.
Also bear in mind that the honour of those closest to you and of the institutions you are allied to should also be protected, ideally.
Hospitality is the final thing to remember. When I say “hospitality”, I refer mainly to the way you treat other people, mostly, new acquaintances. I think that Pagans are more welcoming and accepting of others than other people, mainly because we all know that there is no universal pathway that fits everyone. Each and every one of us has a different way of perceiving the world around us and that is a wonderful thing. We are a diversified community and must of us know how it feels to be an outcast, so we tend not to let others become outcasts themselves.
I try to accept everyone, and wait until they reveal more about themselves to make an evaluation: is the person worth to be kept around or is he/she a nefarious influence? This is, no doubt, hard at times, because our minds are built to almost instantly recognise what is similar and what is different from us, which leads to social segregation. Therefore, be welcoming and don’t be like those that may have once did you wrong.
Concluding, following the Wiccan Rede is, by no means, easy. You may find yourself searching for some guidelines, like I have, to make the job simpler, but there will always be that dilemma: you have to think twice (or many more times) before you act and often, the amount of time just isn’t enough. All we can hope is that we don’t offend anything or anyone, Ancestors and Gods included.
No matter what your choice is, remember that the Rede exists to help, not to condemn or prohibit – but it will surely restrain you from making grave mistakes.
I also would like to add that this essay was influenced by the Nine Noble Virtues of the Heathen Paths. The above interpretations and conclusions, however, are my own.
Merry meet and merry part, until we happily meet again!
Blessed be!

Hear now the words of the witches,
The secrets we hid in the night,
When dark was our destiny’s pathway,
That now we bring forth into light.
Mysterious water and fire,
The earth and the wide-ranging air,
By hidden quintessence we know them,
And will and keep silent and dare.
The birth and rebirth of all nature,
The passing of winter and spring,
We share with the life universal,
Rejoice in the magical ring.
Four times in the year the Great Sabbat
Returns, and the witches are seen
At Lammas and Candlemas dancing,
On May Eve and old Hallowe’en.
When day-time and night-time are equal,
When sun is at greatest and least,
The four Lesser Sabbats are summoned,
And Witches gather in feast.
This was first written in 1964 by Doreen Valiente

Bide within the Law you must, in perfect Love and perfect Trust.
Live you must and let to live, fairly take and fairly give.
For tread the Circle thrice about to keep unwelcome spirits out.
To bind the spell well every time, let the spell be said in rhyme.
Light of eye and soft of touch, speak you little, listen much.
Honor the Old Ones in deed and name, let love and light be our guides again.
Deosil go by the waxing moon, chanting out the joyful tune.
Widdershins go when the moon doth wane, and the werewolf howls by the dread wolfsbane.
When the Lady’s moon is new, kiss the hand to Her times two.
When the moon rides at Her peak then your heart’s desire seek.
Heed the North winds mighty gale, lock the door and trim the sail.
When the Wind blows from the East, expect the new and set the feast.
When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss you on the mouth.
When the wind whispers from the West, all hearts will find peace and rest.
Nine woods in the Cauldron go, burn them fast and burn them slow.
Birch in the fire goes to represent what the Lady knows.
Oak in the forest towers with might, in the fire it brings the God’s insight.
Rowan is a tree of power causing life and magick to flower.
Willows at the waterside stand ready to help us to the Summerland.
Hawthorn is burned to purify and to draw faerie to your eye.
Hazel-the tree of wisdom and learning adds its strength to the bright fire burning.
White are the flowers of Apple tree that brings us fruits of fertility.
Grapes grow upon the vine giving us both joy and wine.
Fir does mark the evergreen to represent immortality seen.
Elder is the Lady’s tree burn it not or cursed you’ll be.
Four times the Major Sabbats mark in the light and in the dark.
As the old year starts to wane the new begins, it’s now Samhain.
When the time for Imbolc shows, watch for flowers through the snows.
When the wheel begins to turn, soon the Beltane fires will burn.
As the wheel turns to Lamas, night power is brought to magick rite.
Four times the Minor Sabbats fall use the Sun to mark them all.
When the wheel has turned to Yule, light the log the Horned One rules.
In the spring, when night equals day time for Ostara to come our way.
When the Sun has reached it’s height, time for Oak and Holly to fight.
Harvesting comes to one and all when the Autumn Equinox does fall.
Heed the flower, bush, and tree by the Lady blessed you’ll be.
Where the rippling waters go cast a stone, the truth you’ll know.
When you have and hold a need, harken not to others greed.
With a fool no season spend or be counted as his friend.
Merry Meet and Merry Part bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the Three-fold Laws you should three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is enow wear the star upon your brow.
Be true in love this you must do unless your love is false to you.
These Eight words the Rede fulfill:
“An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will”
Not all traditions of witchcraft believe in the Threefold Law. Personally, I do because it keeps me from straying into the dark aspects of witchcraft such as hexes or curses or other negative things that are possible to do.
The Threefold law is simple it says you should be careful of the spells you cast or rituals you do as whatever the spell is can come back at you three times as strong. If you cast a dark, negative spell be prepared for something or some things in your life to go bad three times worse than whatever you casted on the other person.
