The Lun’atics Rede

Bide the Wiccan Laws we must

In Perfect Love and Perfect Trust

Though their numbers may be small

Heed them well, one and all.

Mind the Threefold Law you should

Three times bad and three times good

To all who come let them see

The Lord and Lady Blessed Be

Merry meet and merry part

Joyful singing and cheerful heart

Eight words the Lun’atics Rede fulfill

AN YE HARM NONE, DO WHAT THOU WILL.

                                                       -Adapted from the Wiccan Rede

                                                                                    By Taureth   (1998)

Esoteric

A. And It Harm None, Do What Thou Will

B. Remember the Threefold law

C. Surrender None ... neither Freedom, nor Love, nor Peace,

                                      nor Justice

D. Give Freely To All ... Of your Heart, of your Mind,

                                     and of your Hand

E. The Strong Shall Protect and Nurture the Weak ... in Spirit,

                                      in Mind, and in Body

F. Merry Meet and Merry Part

G. To Know, To Dare, To Do, To Share

   Remember these things always, for true justice can only come from honoring the Spirit of the laws, not solely from the enforcement of their letter.

 Magickal

  NOTE: The performance of Magick is a sacred personal right, which bears responsibility in equal measure to its benefits.

  a. Magick shall never be used to coerce someone to do something

      or to change their will or to intimidate someone.

  b. Within Courts of Chaos Coven, any form of Sex Magick shall

      only be performed in private, by consenting adults,

  c. Magick has its place and will be performed with in the Wiccan reed,  with prior knowledge,  by consenting adults. No one at any time shall be coursed into performing any Magick that they do not will to do. Blood Magick and or physical Great Rite, may not be performed during main rite of a open function.

  d. Magick should never be used as a status symbol.

  e. Magick can stand on its own merit; you don’t need to make up results to impress others.

  f. No Magick, even if you are sure it is beneficial, shall be

      Performed for another person without their direct consent.

  g. Any Magick performed for another person must conform to

      the same rules which apply to members.

  h. Any Magick performed for a nonmember should be very

      carefully considered before commencing, and if you are unsure

      as to its beneficial or ethical use, you are urged to seek the

      counsel of another member who is not personally involved.

  i. Magick maybe be performed for others, member or

      non-member, for a profit. Reasonable fees to offset the expense

      of materials or time spent notwithstanding.

  j. Intentionally interfering in the Magickal workings of another

     Member is prohibited; even if you are only trying to help, ask

     first.

  k. Any original Magickal Spell or Research is the sole intellectual

      property of its author.  Even if they share it with you, you

      must obtain their permission before sharing it with anyone else.

  l. Any Magickal Spell or Research submitted to the Courts of

      Chaos Coven Book of Shadows, becomes the property of the

      Coven as a whole, and permission must be granted by the

      3^rd degrees, before it is shared with nonmembers.

  m. It is OK for Magick to be fun, and we do encourage its use at

       any time and in any way appropriate.  As with anything else

       you do, the more you practice the better and stronger you get,

       but it should always :

        - have a purpose (even if it is just practice)

        - follow the rules

        - MOST IMPORTANTLY <<< HARM NONE >>>

  n. during the gathering of natural components for spells, always

      respect Mother Nature, and a gift, or at the very least, a sincere

      Thank You should be given in exchange. (see related can trips

      in The Book of Shadows)

  o. Remember, that using “wrong” methods to obtain a “right”

       result, will pollute the Magick and it either won’t work or will

       backfire and do more harm than good.

  p. Magick should not be used as an emotional response to an

      upheaval.  In other words, look before you leap, and consider

      the ramifications first; it’s easier to not do than it is to undo.

  q. Preemptive Magical Attacks are not advised.  Any Magickal

      Attack should be part of a defensive strategy, again weighing

      the consequences of your actions before proceeding.
