The Law

We are of the old ways, among those who walk with the Goddess and the God and receive their love.
Keep the Sabbats and Esabats to the best of your abilities, for to do otherwise is to lessen your connection with the Goddess and the God.
Harm none. This, the oldest law, is not open for interpretation or change.
Shed not blood in ritual; the Goddess and the God need not blood to be duly worshipped.
Those of our ways are kind to all creatures, for hurtful thought are quiet draining and aren't worth the loss of energy.
Misery is self-created; so to is joy, so create joy and disdain misery and unhappiness and this is within your power. So harm none.
Teach only what you know, to the best of your ability, to those students who you choose, but teach not to those who would use your instructions for distruction or control. Also, teach not to boost pride, for ever remember she who teaches out of love shall be enfolded in the arms of the goddess and god.
Ever remember that if you would be of our way, keep the law close to your heart, for it is the nature of the Wicca to keep the Law.
If ever the need arises, any law may be changed or discarded and replaced as long as the new ones don't break the oldest law of all, Harm None!
