“It's like these fellows who name their swords 'Skullbane' or 'Souldrinker' or somesuch." Tric tied his saltlocks into a matted knot atop his head. "Tossers, all."
"If I were going to name my blade," Mia said thoughtfully, "I'd call it 'Fluffy.'"
Tric snorted with laughter. "Fluffy?"
"Byss, yes," the girl nodded. "Think of the terror you'd instill. Being bested by a foe wielding a sword called Souldrinker... that you could live with. Imagine the shame of having the piss smacked out of you by a blade called Fluffy.”

“As a practitioner of Witchcraft, my drive is to learn as much magic as I can from whatever sources resonate with me. In those instances in which a practice, symbol, or deity speaks to me and demands my devotion, I make a commitment to honor the cultures from which they originated by pledging to study their histories, to listen to the voices of those who identify as part of those cultures, and, where possible, to support the living people who belong to that cultural group.”

“The Star Goddess is the primary deity in the Faery Tradition of Witchcraft. She is the whole, undifferentiated universe, both manifest and non. She is the vast infinite darkness, who divided herself and brought forth the first light from the primal dark. She is the great and cosmic womb of the universe, the stirring motion of primal chaos, which is all potential. She is the Void, and that which emerges from the Void. She is all and she is nothingness, circumference and center.”

“Ours is not a path that can be fully understood with the mind,
but must be lived and felt. Witchcraft must be experienced. We engage the Craft, not just with our left-brained awareness of logic and language, but also with our right-brain awareness of art, and inspiration, and dream.”

“Since modern witchcraft draws so much potency from the stories of the past, we can reach back into antiquity to identify with not only those with whom we may share a lineage or bloodline, but also with those with whom we may draw a poetic association. We also identify with those people who may not have been actual witches but who were accused and/or executed for the 'crime' of witchcraft, thereby drawing that current of poetic power into our own lives and practices.”

“Often, the moon in witchcraft is equated to the divine feminine, but in a Queer Craft we might step outside of the gender binary and remind ourselves that the moon itself has no gender. It need not always be considered a goddess and contrary to some people's assertions, the moon has sometimes even been seen as a god.”
