I'm hoping there's at least one person of the Wicca faith out there who can point me in the right direction of some good websites and maybe even some good books to read. If you don't want to reply to this message then please feel free to email me at pjsander@yahoo.com.

http://www.druidry.org

Try copying and pasting the above in your browser. It has some interesting articles in there, comparing druidry with wicca......what it is and what it ain't.

It's been a while, but I have done some extensive research on paganism, but the majority of the sites I used were in German. Sorry. Undecided

This is a very interesting topic. Choose carefully what you want for yourself.

All of these will point you in the proper direction. Starhawk's 'Spiral Dance' is a great first book to buy. Good luck in your journey & blessed be!

I wish she would do something more autobiographical, her life seems so interesting. Has anyone read A Witch Amoung Us by Lois Bourne? It's out of print now but I still see copies here and there.

Thanks to all who responded!

A funny thing happened over the weekend...(no, that's not an intro to a joke! *lol*)
I suddenly remembered purchasing the book "Wicca" by Scott Cunningham a few years ago. I started digging around in my stash of books that I keep stored in the basement and viola!, there it was. Coincidence? I think not!
I'll tell y'all what--I'm a big believer in signs, omens if you will. Ever since I started exploring Wicca, the signs are good...really good.

maggie Diamond Offline Posts: 799 Gender:	Re: questions about a certain faith Reply #14 - Oct 27^th, 2005 at 1:25pm Wicca is something that has always piqued my curiosity, but I have never taken the step to dig in to see what it's all about. What exactly is the wiccan belief and how do you practice it? Are there gatherings (like churches), or is it something you just practice alone? This thread really has me interested.
