The Gods and Goddesses are energies which have existed since the time before Time.
The Deities are Life Forms from Ancient Races whose histories are now lost to us.
We realize and accept that by the days of the writing of the Christian holy book, there were mysteries already lost, knowledge already
gone and magicks already dead to us. We therefore accept that there were other
civilizations before any written histories we have today, and that so-called "Pre-civilizations"
were superior to our current technological and evolutionary state in knowledge, craftsmanship, and
abilities.
All Otherkin-kind is to be respected.
Shapeshifters exist in nearly every belief system, every ancient civilization.
Dragonkind not only represents, but aggregates both the ancient knowledges and wisdoms that we have, and that we have lost.
Dragonkind exists in the Spirit Plane and is the exact opposite of Shadow, which coexists in that same plane. Therefore, Dragonkind is the Wisdom,
where Shadow is the Soul. We do not associate ourselves with those who condemn Dragons as "evil."
Those who exist today in human form may bear a kinship to a previous form in a past life. We do not
discredit these folks, merely for being human this time around.
We reincarnate many times.
We believe that our goal, as Humans, is to reach that state of spiritual enlightenment which precludes the
need for a physical body.
This process takes many lifetimes to achieve.
Our quest and charge as human beings is to learn all that we can, on a spiritual and scientific, mathematic, and philosophical level, to achieve the ultimate goal set before us.
As science proves or disproves current religious tenets and philosophies, we
believe it is our duty as Enlightened Individuals to adjust our beliefs to incorporate that which is proven
as absolute fact, and not live our lives entrenched in dogmatic supersitions.
We believe in the Guf.
The Guf [known by many other names such as SummerLand, the Well of Souls, etc.] is where all souls go when the physical host it inhabited, is terminated or extinguished.
The Guf represents all knowledge of all spirits and souls which do and have therein inhabited,
and therefore is the ethereal home of the Higher Collective and the Collective Subconscious.
The Guf is a place for ALL Souls to converse, share information and relate experiences; this includes those Spiritual Beings known as the Gods and Goddesses.
The Guf is from where Soul Groups are born, and from which our Souls are drawn upon the event of physical birth.
Magick is a physical power, directed and colored only by the intent of the user to affect and effect the world.
Energy has no color. It is neither Light, nor Dark.
How the Magick/Power is USED is what taints/colors the energies, not the energies themselves.
We do not believe that Dark Magick or Light Magick exists; only the intent of the User who weilds the Magick, is Light or Dark in their heart.
Only the most irresponsible Magick Users allow errant Magicks to fly about their homes and properties.
We believe that, with the knowledge and power of Magick, comes great responsibility on the part of the one weilding it.
What you put out and/or into yourself, your life, your education, and your magick, is precicely what you will receive in return.
We accept the Wiccan Rede, but not as is contemporarily understood..."three times ill or three times good..."
We do not believe that means if you take someone for $10, it will cost you $30 in turn.
We believe that the "Three-fold Laws" ARE recursive in that What Goes Around, Comes Around.
We believe the Threefold Law affects you in mind, body, and spirit. Three times Ill or Three times Good.
What you put into your spells, your religion, your relationships and your life is precisely what you will get back from them.
There is another part of the Wiccan Rede..."except in defense it be...ever mind the rule of three"...That was taken from the Witches Rede and speaks
not of bad intent coming back at you three times what you sent out, but in all three aspects of your life.
mind or psychic
body or physical
soul or spiritual
This encompasses all three Planes.
Primordial or physical
Psychic or mental
Ethereal or spiritual
Be careful what you do, and to as well as for whom you do it.
The Earth is our home, our Mother, our Goddess.
The Earth gives birth to all that we need, all that we are and all that we do.
The Earth requires our healing energies at any and all times Wwe can afford them to Her.
The Earth's poor health was brought about by our (Mankind's) irresponsibility and greed and it is therefore our responsibility and DUTY
as a Pagan Earth-based body of enlightened people, weilding the power She has to give us, to heal Her!
We do NOT proselytize.
*knock knock* Good Morning, Ma'am. Have Yyou heard the word of the Goddess, today? *big toothy, blank smile*
We do NOT do this. Period. Ever. End of that discussion.
We are ecumenical within the Pagan Community.
As an Eclectic Weyr™ (coven) we do not discriminate against other Pagans, regardless of Path and/or Practice.
We accept any and all other traditions, paths and styles and will do our best to integrate all rites and ritual, spellwork and offerings into as eclectic an activity as possible.
We do not discriminate against any race, age, sex or national origin.
All members MUST be at least 18 years of age!
If a prospective member is underage, NO title, duty or membership will be made
available to him/her until they are of legal age without express written parental
consent given in person by the parent[s] to the High Priest/ess.
This is NOT NEGOTIABLE!
Minor children MAY; however, attend celebrations and all functions.
We do NOT charge for private lessons or initiation.
We feel that those who charge their aspirants, pledges, devotees, fealists or dedicants for private lessons, or initiation rites are beneath contempt and should not enjoy
the respect and privilidges of those who are truly dedicated to the Old Ways.
We do feel; however, that certification documents and teaching materials, enrollment fees and membership dues should be paid for by the student.
This also includes paying their own way through outings, trips, and other events.
Remember that what you put in is what you will get back. Invest in your Magickal education as you would your intellectual one.
There IS a donation request for additional classes and membership dues ARE mandatory for the betterment of the Weyr™.
Classes which are not personal teachings (one on one instruction between Adept and student) welcome contributions to lessen the financial strain on the Weyr™.
All common materials necessary to participation and completion of said classes are to be paid for individually by the student.
There will NEVER be any mandate requiring ANY student to purchase common materials strictly from the Weyr™, the Weyr™'s High Priestess, or any other functionary of the Weyr™.
All fealtants (students and pledges) are required to attend courses offered by the Weyr™ for which the Fealtant will be responsible in providing their
own supplies and worker materials.
We at DragonFyre Weyr, Inc.; will NEVER charge for the teaching of ANY required class.
There IS a required donation for classes not included in the set curriculum, at the discretion of the High Priestess and the teacher of said class.
Membership Dues are mandatory. Sorry, but it is a fact of life. Light bills, rents, supplies, etc. MUST be paid and it is NOT the sole responsibility of the High Priestess and the Elders of DFW, Inc. to assume these expenses.
Membership Dues are due every six weeks. Failure to meet your obligations to the Weyr™ without first making prior arrangements,
will result in your suspension within the Weyr™.
NO Membership is for life. Membership depends entirely and solely on your participation, conduct, and intent and is at the discretion of the High Priestess.
Contributions and Membership dontations to the Weyr™ are not refundable.
