Kol Nidre...

Feb 21, 2009 12:00

Prayed at the beginning of Yom Kippur, Kol Nidre has interesting connotations:

Kol Nidre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:All personal vows we are likely to make, all personal oaths and pledges we are likely to take between this Yom Kippur and the next Yom Kippur, we publicly renounce. Let them all be relinquished and abandoned, null and void, neither firm nor established. Let our personal vows, pledges and oaths be considered neither vows nor pledges nor oaths.

How much should vows bind us?  Should we make vows to begin with?  In 1734, there are no vows or oaths.  In many other branches of witchcraft, there are.  Before you make such a vow, you should think, really think, about it.  Are you willing to keep the vow?  If not, why are you saying it?
