Can you get pregnant by Wicca?
Wicca is a belief system, as is Christianity, Islam, etc. Belief systems cannot get you pregnant.
Are there afro american wicca?
As Wicca is a religion focusing not on race, but on the belief structures of the individual, there is not (to my knowledge) a specific African-American Wicca. If you are asking if there is a participation by African-Americans in wicca, then the answer is yes.
Is Wicca related to any other religion?
Yes and no. Yes because Paganism (the root of Wicca) is actually the oldest religion in the world and The Pope (head of the oldest Christian faith) admitted in the 1300's to stealing not only Pagan worship sites, dates and etc. but a lot of rituals and etc. from Pagans (in an attempt to get Pagans to convert to Christianity). So Paganism and in a way Wicca is actually the root of all religions. However, Wicca is actually a very modern religion on its own. Gerald Garner updated and transformed The Pagan Belief System to incorporate other traditions and allow a more open belief system in the 1940's. This is what we know as Wicca.
Is Wicca a native American belief?
No, Wicca has no connection at all with native American beliefs. It is a modern pagan religion developed in England in the early 1900s.
Can Wicca be practiced with out a religious belief?
Yes. One of the easiest ways to do this is to belive in the voice of nature. Then, your journey begins. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ok, I seem an obvious misconception here. Wicca... is a religion. Witchcraft and spellwork are practices. Wicca is not spells, that's witchcraft.
What is dark wicca?
There is nothing called Dark Wicca. Wicca is a religion, it is neither Dark or Light.. There are mysteries in the craft of Wicca, and the unworthy would use it for dark purposes. That is why there is a degree system in Wicca, where the secrets are revealed only to the worthy. Wicca is about life and earth and magic. It is up to the individual to decide what they shall attain in their life time.
What old English word did witch originate from?

When was the idea of Wicca first brought to the US?
The idea was said to originate with Gerald Gardner who brought it to the US in 1950's.
When did the wicca religion originate?
Many Wiccans regard their modern faith as the restoration of a nature-based spiritual tradition that reaches back through the earliest ages of pre-history. In the historical sense, the modern practice of Wicca began with Gerald Gardner in Britain in the 1930s, or, according to some claims, in the 1920s. Many different groups, schools and forms of Wicca branched off from that original group very quickly. Gardnerian Wicca and the related Alexandrian Wicca, continue to thrive today. Some feminist and other forms of Wicca now have very little in common with the Gardnerian tradition.
Is there anyone who has information on what faeries would have to do with wicca religion My sister inlaw is into the whole wicca thing and always gives my daughter fairie stuff?
Well Wicca is a religion basically based on belief in a lot of mysterious deep things. I myself find that I am into faerie things and impossibilities. I believe it is just the way of being into things that other people don't really believe in. It may also have to do with the fact that faeries first came about in Celtic stories and Celtic people were very much into Wicca. Wicca is, a lot of the time, tied in with mystical creatures and such because Wicca is the "witch" religion.
Are Witchcraft and Wicca the same?
In short, witchcraft and wicca can be taken as two comepletely different things. Wicca is the belief in certain deities, and is seen as more of a religion. Witchcraft is the practice of using instuments and natural remedies to attain something. Although these two things can seem different they are often used interchangably. This is just a misunderstanding. In a sense you can be a wiccan witch, worshipping the deities by preforming spells and rituals, which is the most common found practice. Regardless, you can be wiccan and not preform witchcraft, or you can be a witch and not believe in the deity system that wicca has. Most cases, the one leads to the other, which may be the cause of the misunderstanding. Hope this helps, and Blessed Be.
