Karmic Law

The Threefold Law translates as What goes around comes around, not just once but three times. This seems to be a very good reason to make sure your motives are positive. Although karma is an Eastern term, you can see versions of karmic law expressed in the Christian concept that what you sow so shall you reap. Essentially, it's the idea that for every action there's a reaction, and that your individual actions will redound to you, if not in this incarnation then sometime in the future.

Wiccans believe that you create your own destiny with your thoughts, words, and deeds. Because they subscribe to this idea, Wiccans tend to be more conscious and conscientious in their behavior and thinking than many other individuals are. Although the idea of reincarnation cannot be validated, many Wiccans and Witches seriously consider the karmic implications of their actions or inactions.
