When you start reading and learning Wicca, you will probably come across the terms Wicca, witch, and pagan. Many people do not know the difference, people who have nothing or little to do with magic even equate someone who uses some kind of magic with one of the above terms.
So now let me explain to you the differences.
WICCA
A Wiccan is not more than a person who follows the "religion" Wicca. The religion was founded by the British occultist Gerald Gardner and is one of the most well-known branches in witchcraft.
Even if Wiccans incorporate practices of other beliefs into their work, some teachings are only for Wiccans.
WITCH
Anyone who practices magic or pursues a specific magic branch is a witch. So you could call all Wiccans witches. However, not every witch is a Wicca.
PAGAN
The word "Pagan" was used in ancient Rome by Christians as an insult to people who worshiped other gods instead of the Christian god.
After a while, people started to identify with the Pagan, after which it was rarely used as an insult.
Magic has various traditions, from the hoodoo magic to healing work and Wiccan magic. Today we will have a closer look at the last one, Wiccan Magic. People who practice Wicca can create new spells and manifestations.
VARIOUS TYPES OF WICCA
There are many ways to use Wiccan magic, with rituals, and divination, for example. Besides, you should know that the ingredients that you use for magickal work can actually consist of everything and can come from anywhere since you can do your work the way you want. Nevertheless, there are some things the most Wiccan work with, with crystal magic, candle magic, and herbal magic.
Additionally, they mostly add incense or oils to the ingredients.
THE GOLDEN WICCA RULE
Even if you can use your magic as you want, there is still a solid and golden rule in Wicca: Harm none!
This rule is meant to remind us to rethink our intentions and comes from the Wicca-Rede. Manipulation is also included, e.g., you shouldn't use magic to change the target person's feelings. Without the permission of the target, the spell mustn't be carried out either.
LET’S GET STARTED
Starting with Wicca is not tricky. In the beginning, you don't need any ingredients like above, and you don't need to remember any spell. The way to Wicca begins with an open mind and the need for more knowledge.
Being a Wiccan means cultivating your spiritual being and believing in magic, as well as working with it.
GET A SHADOW BOOK
So, what is a „shadow book“? A shadow book, a book which the most Wiccan have, is a personal book, where you can write down what you already have learned or what is important for you, like spells or spiritual experiences, but also questions.
On the first page of the book, you should write the date down and what it serves you. An example would be: This shadow book is dedicated to the spiritual path of (NAME).
Some divide it into different parts; in one, then everything is about gods, in the other about spells, etc.
PRACTICE WICCA
Depending on which kind of magic you want to use, you’ll probably need some ingredients like candles, herbs, oils, etc. If you wish, you can start learning, for example, how to do candle dressing, or you also can perform some rituals or spells to practice.
Without regular practice, you won’t get results.
