The Wiccan Path at Ancient Pathway
When most uninformed people think of Wicca, they also think of Witchcraft. And though that may, on many occasions hold truth, it is not the rule.
Contrary to what many believe, Wicca is a very peaceful and harmonious way of thinking. This following promotes balance and oneness with the divine and with all that exists.
Wicca is awe and reverence. The ability to see the majesty in a sunrise or sunset. To see the world around you in a new and wonderful light, understanding that the simple existence of the moon can fulfill you.
To be Wiccan is to be a healer, a teacher, a seeker, a giver and a protector of all things. To live in balance and harmoney with the world around you and most of all "Harm none".
Wicca is NOT really a religion by many definitions, but there is no harm done by calling it a religion. It is a belief system and way of life that is based on pre-Christian traditions. With origins in Ireland, Scotland and wales, this faith had deep roots running back up to 30,000 years as claimed by recent archaeological discoveres.
The Wiccan path is based on the Great Goddess and The Horned one and
communion with nature in a positive light. Spell-casting, ritualism,
meditation and divination can all play a part in the day to day life of a
Wiccan. Though out Ancient pathway, we hope that you will gain some insight
into the misconceptions and misunderstandings that have become ever so
popular today.
Some Words about Witchcraft in general
It happens to us all. Even Pagans or followers of Wicca or Spiritual faiths. We hear the word "Witch" and we get an image without our minds eyes. On most occasions, this is not a positive image. It is an image of an old Crone with a green face, covered with warts and an "evil" look about her. Rarely does the golden haired maiden come to mind.
In ancient, and no so ancient history, Witchcraft was known as "the craft of the wise" because of of the persons who followed this ancient teaching and practice followed a path in which they were well in tine with the forces of nature around them. They had a knowledge of herbology, crystals, candles and natural medicines. Many times they would give counsil to the community and they were not only the healers for the villages or communities, they were many times leaders.
