The U.S. Constitution and Religion

Patriotic Wolf - Artist UnknownThe U.S. War On Religion

The President of the United States swears a pledge of office stating they will up hold the Constitution of the United States.

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

The 1st Amendment protects ALL religions and the exercise of those religions by a free people. But that also means that no one religion may be favored or set above the rights of others. Your right to pray to the cross can not and must not force your beliefs upon this free society and the rights of others to practice their own religion or none at all.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Continue reading

Today’s Tarot Meditation Drawing: King of Swords

King of Swords

Mystic Faery Tarot by Linda Ravenscroft

Strength is on your side. You are in control of  the planning, implementation, oversight and details of your domain. Take charge and put your plan in place. Let your sword rest while your adversary is contemplating your latest move. You have things to do in order to move on and rebuild the things that were shattered during the long fight. Today, focus on YOU and your future! You can do this!


Additional Insight:

You’ve been spending a lot of time on strategy to win the war. The latest battle has been fought and you hold the upper hand. While there maybe additional skirmishes, the main battles have been fought. It’s time to turn your attention to the things that YOU need for your kingdom to move forward with prosperity and peace.

Start going through the plans you have already forged. Make the phone calls, get the balls rolling, fill out the paper work and get your information organized and ready to go out the door. The key for today’s success is to put real action behind the steps you’ve drawn out over the past several weeks.

There’s no reason to hold back now. Don’t let fear keep you from taking the first step. What do you have to lose that has already been lost anyway. Half of “nothing” is still “nothing”. So turn your energy toward something worthwhile to fulfill what you NEED and want at the same time. You can do this! Now get to it!

Pagans & Politics

How Do Pagans Approach Social & Political Issues?

Pack PoliticsHere in the U.S., the silly season of Presidential elections has spurred a lot of interest from the Pagan community. The Separation of Church and State is even more important than ever before here in America and Pagans are trying to make their voices heard.

Paganism/Witchcraft/Pagan Metaphysics is one of the fastest growing religions in America today. As well as around the world. Many people are becoming disillusioned with the unethical actions, politics and overpowering control that fundamentalist religions are expressing and pushing in our world today. And many are looking for peaceful alternatives. “Membership in Wiccan, Deity, Druid and Pagan sects has been skyrocketing — up from an unregistered blip in 1990 to more than 350,000 as of 2001” according to an article in the Washington Post.

As the level of strict religious views rises in our political discourse, I have received a huge amount of eMail from researchers, pagan activists and those looking to understand our path, asking for information that outlines the opinions of Pagans from a faith/belief perspective on today’s many issues. While I cannot speak for the opinions of all Pagans, I can discuss the basic principles outlined in the teachings of Pagan Metaphysical theology.

The following is a general description of how our Metaphysical Theology views some of today’s hot topics.
It is important to note that Pagan Metaphysics strives for peace and harmony within the Divine Universe and within the individual being. Through mutual respect and acceptance we can discover and acquire peace for all and create a world that is harmonious for everyone. But this approach does not take away the choices of individuals to direct their own lives with free will and the acceptance of the consequences of those choices. Continue reading
