Traditional Witchcraft
Category: Egroups
 Website Profile: This is a network for all "Trad Witches" to be able to gather round and meet others of like mind. To learn and share ideas.
This is for members in the Panama City area and surrounding areas.
Traditional Witchcraft is an Earth based religion. As practiced by our ancestors thousands of years ago, it focuses on Nature, using the energy of herbs and elements.
Traditional Green Witchcraft is an unique Spiritual connection with the Universe. There are no degree's of initiation and no deities or single entities that are worshipped.
It is not Wicca and differs from modern day Witchcraft beliefs.
Traditional Witches do not worship any entity as their superior, though they recognize the existence of other entities. They believe in the equality of all beings in the Universe, seeing them as different, separate, but never superior or inferior. This difference is often a source of confusion. A traditional witch may speak of the god and the goddess, usually referring to the female and male aspects of Nature, and while they revere and respect Nature, they do not worship it or its representatives.
In Traditional Witchcraft there is a Spirit World or Other World where these other entities reside. Most do not see this as actually separate from this world, but rather a part of it that is usually unseen. Thus, the spirits who are contacted during ritual are already there but may be conjured or evoked to facilitate communication. This is an important point in that Traditional Witches see the interaction between this world and the Other World as constant and not wholly dependent on ritual.
There are some who say that traditional witchcraft is not a religion at all, because no deities are worshipped. From a strictly anthropological standpoint, that would be a fair statement in that religion may be defined as a system of belief which includes the worship of a superior being or beings. However, to say that the practice of witchcraft lacks spirituality is simply untrue, at least among modern witches. For many witches today, it is the spiritual enlightenment offered by the practice of witchcraft that draws them to it, even if their approach to the deities is somewhat different than that found in other religions, including Wicca.
