How did God and Goddess allow the current administration to darken the White House? We keep hearing reports of so many people hurt by the actions of this current administration. Wiccans I’ve talked with, express their concern about this administration’s devastating effects on the environment. (If you’re curious, NationalGeographic.com has a list of changes noted here.
Perhaps, you’re similar to me, and you really wonder how God and Goddess would allow terrible things to happen.
Upon reflection, I’ve noted that Wiccans can use terrible events and related details as turning points in our feelings and understanding.
In tough times like these, we can:
- Know what we stand for
- Know what we want
- Band together in a time of strife
- Begin to know what we stand for
Having someone tear apart our home, families, communities, and environment helps us realize what is important to us. We need to save our Mother Earth. In so doing, we will save ourselves. Certainly, I feel it’s my duty to vote to protect the good that still exists in this country.
Having an opponent (someone tearing down much that is good) helps many marginalized groups stand together. Wiccans can stand together for protecting the environment and communities at risk. We need to vote in line with our principles and stand up to those who wish to remain careless with our Mother Earth.
- Start to know what we want
Knowing what we stand for helps us realize the value of what we want. If we can find common bonds, we can make great progress towards solving many of today’s problems.
I really value many things including peace, a healthy environment, a strong community, and safety. I believe many other people hold these values, too.
Recently, I was talking with a family member. We noted that when you say “I want this”—there can be an underlying value. If I say, “I want safety,” I can notice that I also value the freedom from worry and anxiety, which would cloud my time to meditate and connect with the God and Goddess.
- Band together in a time of strife
A while ago, I was part of a peaceful demonstration that was held in front Congresswoman Anna Eschoo’s office. This was about health care. I was glad to participate.
I realize that each one of us can be called to help with making things better with some issue.
Perhaps, that’s part of why God and Goddess didn’t intervene with the current administration’s darkening of the White House.
Blessed Be,
Moonwater

I wanted to reply to your post on this administration , the administration at the white House id doing everything possible to protect this country and its citizens, and doing what take to get it done. while not everybody agrees one thing is freedom of speech along with making an effort for everybody to have a job. now if what your are talking about is the state government in your state then perhaps you need to elect more conservative candidate that take into conderation our environment. The liberal media can always slant the truth to make people believe their agenda. If we follow the liberal agenda we will end up in the same place where the Germans were with Hitler .
Just so you know I am of Hispanic decent 5th generation and follow the Wiccan path, while I believe in taking care of mother earth and conserving our environment I also believe we need to find a median for the good of everyone,

Mario,
Thank you for having a conversation with me through this comment section.
About “we need to find a median for the good of everyone” – I agree. I also agree that we need freedom of speech. And I am happy to hear you have found the Wiccan Path.
Both liberal and conservative leaders need to work together to solve problems. Unfortunately, we see reports on how they often do not work well together. I also feel people with opposing views have often slanted the truth to their purposes.
At the same time, I personally do NOT agree with these administrations’ choices on the environment and on social issues.
Thank you for your comment.
Blessings,
Moonwater
