No Turning Back – Ly de Angeles

Today I wanted to share this saying from Rituals, Spellcasting & Sorcery Witchcraft Theory and Practice by Ly de Angeles

No Turning Back

Once you have chosen to take upon yourself the obligation of the practice of Witchcraft, then the effects or the immanence, of this way of life will be bestowed on you from aligned intelligence, and so will test that accompany any them.

Anyone who willingly opens themselves to powers beyond he veil of manifestation (as we understand it) opens themselves to the possibility of inner initiation. Witches know that they are witches, but initiation is what seals that knowledge through the power of ritual and the intent inherent within the process itself, to a deeper strata of recognition and response both within oneself and from the power to which we are oathed.

Once initiation has occurred, there is no turning back – you will quest all your life, it is not a thing to do thoughtlessly.
