Unpacking the Wiccan Rede and Spell-Casting Ethics
Grab your broomsticks and settle in as we dive deep into the Wiccan Rede’s origins, interpretations, and the ethics of spell-casting. From Doreen Valiente’s 1964 couplets to the expansion in 1975, we’re tearing apart the 'harm none' rule and the infamous Rule of Three. We’re not pulling punches as we critique the overly prescriptive nature of these ethics and how they’ve led to some seriously judgmental vibes in the Wiccan community.
