This is theīelief that any harm or good that a Wiccan does to someone else comes back to hurt The Rede is reinforced by the Threefold Law (a.k.a. What exactly does and does not do harm is therefore open to personal interpretation." 1 The Rede is only a guideline which the individual must interpret to fit each particular situation and unlike most religions, which actions "do harm" (and which do not) are not discussed in the Rede. "The rejection of specific exhortations and prohibitions of conduct such as those given in the Judeo-Christian Ten Commandments and emphasis on the consequences of one's actions makes the Rede's character somewhat different from major religious texts such as the Bible or the Qur'an. Themselves as well as to another person or persons. Most Wiccans interpret the Rede as including harm to Then they freely choose from among those actions that avoid harming anybody. Wiccans review all of their possible choices and analyze the likely consequences of each option.
