We have to be concerned if something we do harms another. It is part of the Rede itself. Otherwise we are selfish and self centered. There is no justification for the rule of three fold return. We are not alone either but all are one together. 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694718 From: FireSpell Area: MagickNet To: Stardance 2 Sep 96 16:04:42 Subject: Magick styles Pvt UpdReq On Sat Aug 31, 1996 (12:22), Stardance wrote about Re: Magick styles: Netmail on this subject is heading your way.

The first part of the first sentence seems to imply that a circle casting isn't an expansion of the Aura for everyone (which I have to admit that I disagree with on a technical level), but then you go on to say basically the opposite. Seems somethign was lost in the translation. :) MS> I' can't see an aura around anything.

I think the whole concept of this "supernatural" egg-shaped field of light suronding us is rather modern. And, it's kind of silly. But, for visualization and learning, the metephore works.

Pan was not quoting the Rede (An it harm none, do what thou wilt) but the Law of Thelema (Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law). Different philosophy. We are, in a sense, alone - for every man and woman is a star (to quote from the same source). While our dance in the heavens always relates to the position of every other star, the soverignty of the individual is still central. The bond of love unites all things - for the Goddess Nuit (who said "Do what thou wilt") also remarked "Love is the law love under will." However, it is a solecism to correct someone for not using the Wiccan formula when they are not, in fact, quoting a Wiccan source. Love is the law, love under will.
