Religion controls inner space; inner space controls outer space.

Casting a spell, in self-defense or in self-interest is not selfish, but positive, life-affirming. You have been given powers, the very same powers that society devalues... What if it comes back tenfold? Well, don't be a fool. Never use your magick to attack the innocent. Then you have nothing to fear... Don't be frivolous or cowardly. If your course is righteous, and your tools ready, go to it.

Every new social structure strives to come up with some kind of mythology of divine origin for its values and aims.

Religion controls inner space; inner space controls outer space.

Mythology is the mother of religions, and grandmother of history.

The purpose of ritual is to wake up the old mind in us, to put it to work. The old ones inside us, the collective unconscious, the many lives, the divine eternal parts, the senses and parts of the brain that have been ignored.

The Goddess is Alive. Magic is afoot.
