What do you think of Wicca?

Asking for a friend. lol
I've been reading about it, and not interested in following it but, it could be one of those ''religions'' that I have misunderstood in my mind. I like the spells.
Do you know any Wiccans? I had a friend a few years ago who followed it, but we drifted apart. She was pretty grounded in her life, she wasn't stirring boiling cauldrons with eyes of newts, or anything. I've always been interested in learning about others' beliefs.

I was Wiccan for a bit.
Inform your friend to stay away from charlatans like Silver Raven Wolf. Scott Cunningham is a better reading source.

Wait, you were a Wiccan? Do tell. Did you do spells?

hehe, I did. Magic(k) is not real, however. I suppose there are Wiccans who see spell crafting as more of a meditation exercise than anything that can actually influence nature or the world, but for me it was always more the connection I felt to how more peaceful Wiccans were in comparison to Christians. There is something to be stated for a religion that promotes real peace as opposed to one that just pretends due to the power it has incurred over the centuries.

That's so weird that you say it like this, because upon reading about it for the past few days, I find that's the idea behind it. Of course, there is dark ''magick'' but that reveals the contents of a person's heart, really. I find it pretty interesting. I think spells sounds pretty cool, actually. More so, the incantations.

It doesn't surprise me that you would be interested in the spellwork. You are a poetess, after all. That's what spells are: poems, basically.

I prefer rattan.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

You're confusing Wicca with wicker.
