ich wuerd gern eure meinung hoeren, ueber den begriff
"Warlock" aber vorher noch eine kleine definition.

The Anglo-saxon meaning, 'oath-breaker' is the most common use of the word 'warlock'. The label has fallen from use and is often seen as a derogatory title.
An Old Norse word 'vardlokkur'. There are debates about the exact meaning of the word in it's original form. However there are several mythological tales about the Vardlokkur guarding the gates of knowledge. In these legends, the Vardlokkur were the wise men of divine knowledge who protected that wisdom and guarded it with their lives.
The magik of the warlock was/is to ward off evil spirits and to lock or bind them up, keeping the sacred wisdom safe. Some also call the vardlokkur the Norse Guards, Guardians or
"Guard of the gates of knowledge". The warriors of the spiritual community.
In the Scots dialect the word warlock, means a 'cunning man' or 'male white witch', it is rarely used today, if at all.

als maenliche hexe stose ich oefters ueber diesen begriff und frage mich...ist es gerechtfertigt ihn heutezutage zu verwenden?
