Wicca for Beginners is a great introduction to Wicca. This is a concise ‘How-to’ book that is designed to give the reader the easiest and quickest way to get a good grounding into Wicca.Wicca as it stands today is a revival and recreation of ancient pagan religious ideas, sometimes known as Pagan Witchcraft, the Witch Cult, The Old Way or just simply as The Craft. It's characteristics include an intensely earth-centred outlook (including a reverence for the natural world, nature worship and the observance of seasonal rites), as well as a belief in the higher spiritual realms of the Goddess and the Horned GodPagan Witchcraft attempts to tie us back to our beginnings and our belongings, reminding us of where we come from, to what we owe our existence, and placing us within the natural order. For the Pagan all of life is sacred; an expression of the Goddess and the God. It is for this reason that modern Pagans try to reconnect with nature, consider all of their habits and actions as part of a sacred journey. To find guidance, most Pagans conduct Ceremonies, Rites, or Magic(k) in which they attempt to manifest the qualities of the Goddess and the God, and bring balance to the spiritual forces at work in their life.Within this guide I hope to introduce you to some of the key concepts for the Wiccan practitioner. Whilst this is certainly not an exhaustive study by any means, it will arm you with the beginners' tools necessary to start your own investigations into this nourishing and fulfilling spiritual journey. May your journey be long, and may the Goddess watch over you.
