Post # 1
Am re entering wicca in a mature fashion. Love healing herbs. Know some things looking to learn more. Found good book on the subject will be ordering soon.

I am not sure if I want to follow wicca or xtian wicca. I am leaning more towards wi ca since xtian has such negativity associated to it. As far as being raised catholic n guilt sin etc

Any input anyone?

Hello, and welcome! (:

There is a lot of information on these articles to help get you started on some basics:

And since you mention herbs. I have a great website to suggest:

And as for knowledge on Wicca, I have a site, but I encourage you to find books(more reliable source) and talking to some of the Wiccans here. By the way, here's the site:

http://wicca.com/celtic/wicca/wicca0.htm

Study and do research as much as you can. Find the pros and cons of being a Wiccan and a Xtian Wiccan. And find what is more suitable and comfortable to you. Good luck (:

Hi Wisdomsophia, I have been a practicing Wiccan for over 30 years and a High Priestess of an actual working coven and then of a Wiccan Tradition since 1996. If you have any specific questions I'd be happy to help answer them if I can.

In my opinion there is no such thing as Christian Wicca. Wicca is a specific religion with very specific beliefs and practices which are in no way the same beliefs as in Christianity. So the first thing to ask yourself is whether you are tied to your Christian upbringing or are truly looking to follow a religion that acknowledges the presence of many Gods and Goddesses. If that isn't what you're looking for then you might wish to look at Witchcraft rather than Wicca. There is a significant difference between the two.

Here in the Wicca forum on SOM there are a number of useful threads on Wicca to get you started out. I'd take a look at these:

"What Wicca Is and Isn't" http://www.spellsofmagic.com/read_post.html?post=637268

"Beginner Resources" http://www.spellsofmagic.com/read_post.html?post=500751

"Main Wicca Posts" http://www.spellsofmagic.com/read_post.html?post=580909

That last link contains a number of links to topics valuable to Wiccan learning and practice.
