Who is Aradia?

Aradia, the goddess of the witches, comes from Italian folklore. She is a powerful goddess who commands respect and is often invoked for help in times of need. Aradia is also known for her wisdom and for her ability to heal the wounded.

Aradia is a figure that appears in the Gospel of the Witches, which is a text found in Italy that dates back to the fifteenth century. Aradia is believed to be the daughter of Diana, the goddess of the hunt, and her consort Lucifer. She is seen as a figure who provides guidance to witches and teaches them how to use their magic for the benefit of all.

Aradia saw how Christianity had oppressed the lower classes in ancient times and so she came to earth and taught the peasants witchcraft to have the power to stand up to their oppressors.

Aradia is sometimes known as the Queen of the Witches because of this. She was one of the reasons Wicca and witchcraft proliferated throughout the ancient world and survives to this day.

In the gospel, the witches are portrayed as beings who are able to commune with the spirits of the earth and the sky.

The gospel of the witches is not accepted by mainstream Christianity, but it is still studied by some scholars. Some people believe that the gospel of the witches provides a unique perspective on the practice of witchcraft. 

For instance, the Roman Catholic Church bans mention of this important text. This is because they know Aradia is a Goddess that tried to overthrow the church. They cannot admit this because it goes against their theology.

It is a type of gemstone that is said to have magical properties. It is often used as an amulet to protect the wearer from harm and is also said to bring good luck.

I highly recommend using a piece of star sapphire jewelry for this invocation so that you can keep the Goddess and her protection near to you at all times.

The rose cross is a symbol that has been used by witches for centuries. The rose cross is made up of a cross of the four elements and circles or actual roses. The circles represent the duality of the universe and the goddess Aradia.

Inside the cross is a pentagram:
