"People cannot help being interested in sex. Even prudery is an inverted form of being fascinated by sexual matters"

~Doreen Valiente

"The principle of Fertility is, after all, a very deep, fundamental and mysterious thing. It is life itself, bursting out in myriad forms,from the earth and the waters, never standing still, ever renewing itself, eternal, yet changing.

Even so, the sex-drive behind human fertility is something deep and fundamental, one of the primeval forces.

And although it was the principle of Life that the ancients were seeking to come into harmony with, their means of doing so was usually through their own sexuality; sex made into a ritual.

"As Above, So Below"

As they performed the acts which stimulated life,so the powers of universal fertility would be aroused and move."

"The sun is the father of fire, the moon is the mother of water. Without these two principles, there would be no life as we know it manifested on earth... Life, therefore, to the ancients who philosophied from Nature, and all the fertility thereof, depends on the universal interplay of positive and negative forces, counterbalancing and complementary to each other.

Positive and negative, fire and water; sun and moon; man and woman; god and goddess; light and darkness; day and night; Lucifer and Diana; Pan and Hecate.

This, then, is the belief behind the sex rites of ancient fertility cults." 

Both Mongoose and Cobra are the symbols and sacred animals of the Goddess Wadjit.
