What is Wicca?
Wicca is a pre-christian earth
religion and its followers are a very diverse group of people. We believe
in the divine which is both male, the god, and female, the goddess, although
many traditions are mainly goddess based. I feel the need to point both
deities out. The divine is a balanced power that is neither good
nor evil, as nature is neither good nor evil, we do not worship satan let
alone believe in him. We are peaceful people and abide by some important
rules, one is the Wiccan rede " an it harm none... do what ye will" and
another is the three-fold law which dictates that all energy is returned
to you three-fold, thus a negative spell will bring to you three times
the negativity. Wiccans or witches practice either alone, Solitary, or
with a group called a coven. We celebrate 8 holidays though out the year
based on the cyclic nature of the seasons. During these holidays members
of the covens meet in a ritual circle to perform there rites. Wicca is
a refreshing look at life and an escape from a overbearing predominately
christian society. In wicca you choose your own path, here is a freedom
to express your own personal beliefs and values. Unfortunately because
of this many wiccans are secretive about there practices fearing the loss
of there jobs, friends and families. I believe that you must follow your
heart and create your own path.
