Some commonly held beliefs regarding Witchcraft are:

* Everything has a spirit. A rock, the grass, you or me, the animals.

* There is duality nature. Neither is more important than the other and both are needed for survival.

*There are both Gods and Goddesses

*The changing of the seasons and their symbolic meanings are celebrated throughout the year. The most common being Samhain, Yule, Imbolc, Ostara, Beltane, Midsummer, Lughnassadh, Mabon.

* "Like attracts like". What you put out in the world will return to you.

There are many different paths/relgions in the world and each has value and should be respected.
