priests

The stoic philosopher Epictetus writes about those who want to become priests before they are ready and rightly trained and the importance of the correct priest during the ceremonies. Many people have supported and still claim to be priests and priestesses of the Goddess Hekate or other Gods, while others claim to be priests/priestesses of a magickal tradition. Being a priest/priestess demands great commitment and a lot of hard work internally and externally, in theory and practice. It is time consuming and someone has to devote himself to it.
