Is there such a thing as an afterlife in Wicca? How does it, if it exists, compare to the views of Christians or Moslems? If it doesn't exist, what do Wiccans see as reason to live a good or fulfilling life?

Ah. tight ok I know the aswer to this.

Enlightnment. Is the key like budists all wiccans seek enlightenment, and the only real way to attain that is through following your path and doing what you believe. The prolem arriases when People cannot realise that There is no good or evil, as a human being is capable of both acts. I know I am capable of both acts I however conciously have a choice to do what I wish. I generally do good things an help people because that give me a feeling of happyness, anf joy. But somethimes in a persons like you do have to do what is considered and evil act. However this act may me evil, but the end result is useually for the good of the earth or mankind.

Each Wiccan and Witch chooses a ther own destiny, and each do different tings to attain enlightenment. Weather it be good or evil. As each person is an individual so the same path to spiritual enlightenment is different for each.

As for the afterlife. In Wicca the After life if called 'The Summer Lands' to a witch it is seen as another Dimention beyond ours, where the spirits go, the Plane of existance is a plain of pure energy. This can be tapped into by Psychics, and Mediums, also where the Shroud (The Invisable barrier between the realms) is thin. This is where you get the most Ghostly activity. Also cirtian people have the ability to extend ther vision to the Spirit realm to see ghosts.

However Both the Wiccans and the Witches believe that you go to the summerlands, for a while, and you can visit earth in the form of a ghost, or you can be reborn in to a new body, but you memory of passed lives is suppressed, until you die again. Thsi is why Past life regrersion really works. and you can get some accurate information from it. This suppressed memory can also influence your life. Such as Daja Vu, or some ability you have which you learn esaly. Also this supressed memory, can lead you down some interesting paths. As many people have asked me what they should do in life, because they don't seam to fit in, or they see that ther beliefs are not right. This feeling is your past lives guideing you to the right path, to attain Spiritual Enlightenment.

I hope This helps

Can a person who essentially ignores goodwill in their life and purposely hurts people end up in the Summer Lands?

Yes. As we believe there is no heaven and hell. We believe int eh Threefold Law, by if you hurt or harm someone, or even do anything agiast there will you will get repercusions threefold. Now these can go beyond death and come back to you when you are reborn. Sometime people see them as family curses. My partners mother is the last in her line to get the repercusions of there curse.

Theres was that if the Daughter Wed's Her husband will Tragicaly die shortly afterwards. This was useulay 1 to 2 years after. We will not be affected by the curse as we have acnowledged it's existance, and we will not get married. Therefire breaking the cycle.

Any futher questions please ask
