This my wicca section. Comment if you wish. But please keep it cordial.
Please note! I am NOT a teacher, priest, sage or master of anything. Nor I do I wish such a following. 😒 I will try to post videos according to the season of the wheel. The first of such videos will be on Mabon
A non Sabbath nor solstice piece that is highly significant.
The burning times where terrible times for all pagans. We all remember them with sorrow.
We will never forget.

Many may believe that Wicca is all love and light. And with much that is very much true.
Yet their are tolerances and limits. So with that we say....
Never forgive. Never forget. Not with the burning times, then or now.
Sorry about the lack of formatting on the following. There just no way to format this as a table. Some of the names and reasons of those who were lost.
Note: I have come across many such list. Some contain many of the women that follow. Yet none that I know of contain any men.
If any should happen to know more both men and women please reply either here or privately or on the link at the bottom of this list.
This is not a wicca only list rather a pagan list.
Please note ”Goodwife" means unknown first name female wife.

@Peaches that was 2008. I didn't find out about this until just before I posted this a year and a half ago. So I don't know
Just included it to show it's still happening somewhere in the world. That these types of behaviors could happen anywhere. Even here still.
There's a beast behind the civility mask that we currently wear. And it doesn't hide the beast very well.
If anything January 6th has showed us, it's that beast is still there, hiding, waiting, lurking for the right moment to come out behind the civility mask. 😔
A tool of the craft that is easy to make. Just use a fully blessed clean glass picture frame and paint one side with glossy black spray paint. Make sure it is spray painted two or three times letting it dry between each coat.
