Answer 2

If you want to fit an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper in a standard #10 envelope it is best to make it a threefold. Ironically a three folded sheet only has two actual folds but it looks like three separate sections thus the name threefold. The threefold pattern is carried out in other paper forms also, most travel folders are threefold designs. Although it's really a guideline and not a law I think this is best method for mailing.

BO is led to no longer by making use of sweat yet by making use of the secretions of micro organism feeding on the sweat, it incredibly is why sweat would not scent til its been on your physique for a on an identical time as. in case you wash regularly, the sweat should not be contemporary long adequate for micro organism to reason smells.

Anti perspirants can help stem the bypass of sweat in spite of the indisputable fact that some declare those bock up pores. the final answer nevertheless is common washing of the two your self and your clothing.

Answer 4

The Law of Threefold Return



Ever mind the Rule of Three, that whatsoever you do

Be it for good or for harm, shall come back to you threefold.

Intent without action is worthless, and action without intent is worse than useless - it can be harmful. When our actions are true expressions of our intentions - our wills - we are doing magic.

The Rule of Three illustrates the power underlying our intentions. Everything we do is returned to us threefold. The ethical directive of the Wiccan Rede is balanced by the moral guide of the Rede of Three, without lengthy lists of prohibitions and "sins." Our intent determines the approach we take to life. Our actions determine the response life takes to us.

While the Rede is an ethical clinical statement, the Law of Three is a moral one. We cannot ask for what we do not ourselves offer to others. Think of it as applied common sense; our actions and words ripple outward from us, touching countless other lives in one way or another. Every good deed we do, every helping hand we lend, and every time we act responsibly, we improve our society by fostering and environment in which positive action begins to outnumber negative ones.

The Rule of Three is not a mandate to become a pacifist. Rather, it's a challenge to find a constructive, positive way to deal with the situations we all face in the course of our lives. We are all still part of the world, and our relationships with other people are still very much our own matter to deal with. We all have to live with the results and consequences of our actions and the fruits of our intentions.

The Rule of Three demonstrates the importance of right intent, and reveals the secret to bringing about real prosperity. Every lttle thing we do comes back to is, so it behooves us to send out the sorts of things we really want to have come back to us. When applied alongside the Rede, we are given a goal to work toward, that of doing good, of helping others, and of making the world a better place. Wicca is a lifestyle as much as it is a religion. Its lessons are best appreciated by experiencing them.

Answer 5

My view of it:

Whatever energy I send out, for good or ill, returns to me threefold.

That doesn't necessarily mean a literal, one-for-one return (like if I steal someone's gas cap, I'll have three gas caps stolen). I generally see it in things like how I feel about myself, how I feel when I think about what I did in a certain situation, how others react to me, etc.
