I'm doing some research to put into my BOS and I got two questions.
What does the goddess represent in Wicca? I'm
not
looking for a specific goddess. Just a general idea of what the goddess in Wicca represents.
What does the god represent in Wicca? Again,
not
looking for a specific god. Just a general idea of what the god in Wicca represents.

Short answer:
The feminine and masculine principles, respectively, in the form of the divine.
What does "feminine principle" and "masculine principle" mean to you? (Answer that in your BOS. Not here unless you'd like to.
)

I look at it in two ways, the traditional way and accept the Goddess as the reflecting and nurturing and feminine energy (feminine as in the way my culture and so my way of thinking accepts femininity) and the God as the Energetic and moving force, hence the moon reflects the sun's rays and the sun generates it's rays. They are both part of the whole system of the universe. Thinking of them in this way helps me with spells and Wiccan ritual.
On the other hand, I firmly believe that there are real flesh and blood Gods called the Anunnaki, that they come from another planet, travel in space, stand about twenty feet tall and created us to be their slaves, that we were created out of the DNA of other evolved things. Hence, we can not live in our environment without changing our environment to live. Other animals that evolved do not have this problem. Darwin, in my opinion, was wrong in the case of humans.
Did ya hear about the UFO that they found at the bottom of the Baltic sea near Swedan, or the wing like structure they found in an ancient Roman site in Croatia?

Jungian archetypes; the Great Mother, the Maiden, the Wise Elder, the Lord of the Forests and the Wild Creatures.
The Male and Female creative principles that, in their eternal coupling and interaction and blending, give rise to all that exists; galaxies, stars, planets, whales, redwood trees, cats, dogs, mice and humans.
And the Male and Female aspects of the Inner Being - the Soul, if you will - of every man and woman.
Blessed Be everyone,
Theflyingsorcerer.
