Merry Meet and Welcome to the Class!

In this lesson you will learn about the Wiccan ways of honouring the stages of a human life. You will learn about the following;

Wiccaning
Handfasting
Funeral Rite

This month’s research project has two parts:

1. The ceremonies in the main lesson are made to be adapted and added to. Take some time to explore suitable poetry or prose that can be used for readings. Better still write your own. Why not share what you have found or composed with the other students by posting your ideas and creative writings onto the website forum.

2. Some Wiccans like the idea of their ceremonies being legally binding. If you live in a country such as the USA or the UK where Wicca is perfectly legal make some enquiries as to the requirement for legally binding rites. A good starting point for this would be the local office for births, marriages and deaths, or the local library. Even in liberal multi-cultural cities like London or San Francisco this can be a little intimidating, and you may find some officials are a little fazed by the request. Maybe take a friend and don’t allow yourself to be put off -you have a religion that is just as entitled to respect as anyone else’s. Post what you have found out onto the Forum as this will be a valuable resource for others.

There are also the following two lesson related exercises for you to work on;

Past Life Recollection
Spell of Happiness and Success

Congratulations, you have now completed the second lesson of the course. Think carefully how you will make use of the things you have learnt and ask yourself how they can make a difference to your life as well as the lives of those around you. Digest the material and incorporate the exercises into your life. Remember the School wants to hear how you got on.
We wish you the happiness that comes with the knowledge that what you do makes a positive difference to the world.

Blessed Be.
And see you next lesson.
