Course Description:

This course acts as an introduction to the Wiccan religion, describing its ancient origins and explaining Wiccan beliefs, ethics, rituals, and holidays. You will learn what it means to live as a contemporary Wiccan and how to worship alone or with a group. 

Many people who are at the beginning stages of their journey can sometimes feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information that is available about Wicca. I have written this course in hope that it makes the process simple, smoother & give you the confidence needed to start practicing and taking your exploration deeper if that is what feels right for you.

By the end of this course, students will:

• Understand the definition of both Wicca and Witchcraft and how they relate to each other.

• Know about the origins & history of Wicca.

• Understand the basic beliefs, practices and ethics that underpin the faith.

• Be able to conduct their own simple Wiccan style rituals.
