Um, yeah. There's your problem. Show respect for the earth by driving swords into the ground? Sound like the earth got pretty sick of it and used whatever cosmic power it had to end the ritual. You would think that, I don't know, watering the grass would be a gesture that the earth would receive more favorably.
edit: okay, I realize I'm helping to derail the thread. It's unfortunate that there are some wiccans who are very mockable and ruin it for the rest of you. Maybe you can shed some light on actual beliefs and practices. It seems to me that without any central authority, there's a great deal of variance in terms of wiccan beliefs and practices... is it difficult for you to define your beliefs on a personal level because of that?
