Dear Rose

What you have said is very important.I believe in the deities and they should be honored and respected.The right way to approach things is the best way and you explain it quite clearly.I would call on all the deity but you explain the importants of getting to know each one in a period of time.I didn,t know but im thankful for that is the answer that i seek.I will start with one.to get to know them with the respect that they deserved.Thank you for your wisdom all the time.
Sincerely Your loving friend Kenneth

I will be honest Iâ€™m a Christian doing a favor for a friend. Her ex-husband recently died and she put white and red carnations on his grave site. His wife pulled all the flowers off the arrangement. She now takes only the red carnations and pulls them off the stems whenever my friend or her children (his children too) put the flowers on the grave. I was wondering if there was something religious as she is a wiccan that prompts her to do this? My friend was still very close to her ex-husband and this whole affair has greatly hurt her and the children. Feel free to email the answer if thats easier for you. Thanks.

I was always wondering why people do that. A friend of mine who was also a seeker (she found that the path didn’t suit her) told me that we have to choose someone to call on for a spell, and that it’s different every time. I rebutted, itsn’t that like playing “nicky nicky nine doors”. You take the time to knock, but when they come out, you run away. You don’t take the time to say, “Hi, My name is___________, I’m your new neighbour. I brought you a welcoming gift and I hope you like your stay in our neighbourhood. By the way, you’re welcome any time you like at my place, come over for tea sometime.” She didn’t agree, but I’ve stuck to it and have developped great relationships with my deities.

This was very instructive and a point I have had trouble with my novices as well. You don’t just use who will get the job done but the deity that you have an affinitity to.
I have and always will called on Dagda. Mother of the universe. hope I spelled that right. She is who I was taught from a small child to honour and feel closest to. Weither she comes to you as maiden mother or crone or in the form of Calli or the Morigan I don’ t switch she is the deity I call on to all spells. She is all and everything so what ever form she takes is the one needed at that time. The God energy I have never named it is just her other half the mail energy of the universal energy. If I am wrong please tell me, As I was family trad and not wiccan in teaching.
