| Before Time Was ________________________________________
Before time was, there was The One; The One was all, and all was The One.
And the vast expanse known as the universe was The One, all wise, all pervading, all powerful, eternally changing.
And space moved. The One molded energy into twin forms, equal but opposite, fashioning the Goddess and God from The One and of The One.
The Goddess and God stretched and gave thanks to The One, but darkness surrounded them. They were alone, solitary save for The One.
So they formed energy into gases and gases into suns and planets and moons; They sprinkled the universe with whirling globes and so all was given shape by the hands of the Goddess and God.
Light arose and the sky was illuminated by a billion suns. The Goddess and God, satisfied by their works, rejoiced and loved, and were one.
From their union sprang the seeds of all life, and the human race so that we might achieve incarnation upon the Earth.
The Goddess chose the Moon as her symbol, and the God the Sun as his to remind the inhabitants of Earth of their creators.
All are born, live, die and are reborn beneath the Moon and Sun; All things come to pass thereunder, and all occurs with the blessings of The One, the Goddess and God, as has been the way of existence since before time was. ****** From The Standing Stones Book of Shadows by Scott Cunningham
This is my absolute favorite thing I've read so far by Scott Cunningham (which is an author I recommend to ANYONE reading this, he is AMAZING)

| It's beautiful, sensual, and carries a lot of imagery hun, but I never knew that Wicca had a creation story . . . and for me, I think creaiton stores are over rated. | |
