The Ara Tradition is an international Wiccan spiritual tradition devoted to experiencing the divinity that dwells within Nature and in ourselves. It is a spiritual path and a community that is rediscovering the wisdom of our ancestors and creating a new relationship with our Mother Earth and with one another. Our central spiritual and ethical precept is that we live in a sacred world and so we seek to live in a sacred manner. Our mission as a tradition is devoted to helping you experience, rejoice in and be guided by that immanent divinity.
Our Mission
The Temple of Ara is committed to:
- helping you rediscover and reconnect with the Sacred in Nature, in yourself and within others
- teaching you the practices and philosophies inherent in the Temple’s workings and celebrations
- helping you foster a commitment to living our shared values and acting in accord to the Temple’s primary tenet
- helping you establish meaningful relationships with other members of our global community who share your values and view that the Natural World is Sacred
