I have noticed in researching other sites on the i-net, and from all the people who e-mail me, that Wicca seems to be more "popular" as a Pagan religion, instead of Pagan, which I am. *grin* And, after receiving many many e-mails asking what Wicca is, I am placing a new page on this site, just as I did because of all the questions I get about Paganism. This page, however, is more detailed on what Wicca is.
Words from "The Wicca Spellbook":
Wicca encourages free thought, artistic creativity, individuality, and personal, spiritual, and psychic growth. It is a celebration of the cycle of seasons and of life. Wicca is respecting and living in harmony with all living things. Wicca is light. Wicca is love. Wicca is called "Craft of the Wise" and is both ancient and new. It is a path unlike any other in the world.
Wicca is not anti-christian; however, it does not acknowledge the existance of sin, the Devil, or a judgmental and avenging god as defined by Christianity.
Wicca is a positive journey to enlightenment through Goddess-worship and the mystical art of white magick. It is a shamanistic nature-oriented religion and a unique and exciting blend of the traditional and the eclectic that seeks neither to convert, conform, or control. |
