Law of Identification
The Law of Identification or imitation is where one entity
assumes the characteristics of another. The more the first entity knows
about the second the better the imitation. If this produces a strong association
between both entities it might almost involve becoming the other entity
itself. A temporary identification can be considered a divine or spirit possession. This law is used by
witches when invoking the spirit of the Mother Goddess to enter the high
priestess and Cernunnous to enter the
high priest.
