                                 The Wiccan Way 
             by Lady Beckett of Circle Atheneum in San Diego, CA in 1988.
      
     Recognizing that there is more than one path to spiritual 
     enlightenment and that Wicca is but one of many, and that Wicca 
     holds within itself the belief that there is more than one type of 
     step set to the spiral dance, find here listed common denominators 
     of the Craft. 
      
     That there is above all the Goddess in her three-fold aspect and many 
     are her names.  With all her names we call her Maiden, Mother and 
     Crone. 
      
     That there is the God, consort and son, giver of strength and most 
     willing of sacrifice. 
      
     That and it harm none, do what ye will shall be the law. 
      
     That each of her children are bound by the three-fold law and that 
     whatever we create, be it joy or sorrow, laughter or pain, is brought 
     back to us three-fold. 
      
     That as she is the mother of all living things and we are all her 
     children, we seek to live in harmony not only with each other, but 
     with the planet earth that is our womb and home. 
      
     That life upon the earth is not a burden to be born, but a joy to be 
     learned and shared with others. 
      
     That death is not an ending of existence, but a step in the on-going 
     process of life. 
      
     That there is no sacrifice of blood, for She is the mother of all 
     living things, and from her all things proceed and unto her all 
     things must return. 
      
     That each and everyone of the children who follow this path has 
     no need of another between themselves and the Goddess, but may find 
     Her within themselves. 
      
     That there shall not by intent be a desecration of another's symbols 
     of beliefs, for we are all seeking harmony within the One. 
      
     That each person's faith is private unto themselves and that 
     another's belief is not to be set out and made public. 
      
     That the Wiccan way is not to seek converts, but that the way be 
     made open to those who for reasons of their own seek and find the 
     Craft. 
      
     And as it is willed, so mote it be.
