Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone knew or had any opinion's on Wiccan's belief to bury or cremate? Also, I'm interested in leaving my body to medical science... I just wondered what Wiccan's general belief is when it comes to what happens to your body when you die.
Thanks,
Sian
RE: Wiccan Burial
Hi Sian
The traditional method of disposal for witches was cremation. The ashes return to the earth much faster than the body decomposes.
I think most witches would support donating a body as it provides much needed information to the medical proffesion.
Most witches see the body as unimportant after death, it serves a purpose while we are here, but once the spirit has moved on it has no further use.
