I watched this programme, where do I start? I don't even know anymore. I suppose that because I'm actually very anti-wicca I have a bad starting point for this kind of TV; they mention the 3 times 3 rule and the circle and all the other weird little things that I don't use or believe. Kids who'd bind themselves with blood without realising what it entails, whether you're talking power or health, playing at rituals and spells without knowing who they're calling to. I get this desparate urge to talk to them and in a way I guess it might be talking partly to myself at that age but... not. Where's there calling to witchcraft? I truly believe that you need to be called to it, to feel some kind of pressure towards it, otherwise it's never going to work. I hate the fact that TV and shops and people in general make a mockery of it when it can be so interesting. I hate the fact it never becomes interesting simply in passing because you only get a beginners aspect of it. I hate that Fiona Horne advises new witches to invoke Kali in her book... mostly I hate the popularisation of it all.
The most interesting 'pagan' TV I've seen - well two programmes actually - the Aleister Crowley show, part of a series, on channel4 and something on BBC1 a long time ago with a shaman featured dancing on a hill to Mari Boine. |
