The Brief History of Wiccan Religion


Before you set out on a life transforming journey, it is essential that you have complete knowledge regarding the history of that adventure, particularly if what you are getting involved in is a system of belief or a religion like Wicca. Most of us know that the present Wiccan religion came into existence in 1954 with the efforts of Gerald Gardner. He authored a number of texts which influenced the likes of Freemasonry, Theosophy, Aleister Crowley, and many more occult sources. This gave birth to the present day Wicca religion that exists today.

At present, Wicca is one of the most rapidly developing religions in the continent of North America. Actually, it is another name for ‘Witchcraft’. Though some believe that it is synonymous with Satanism, the truth is quite the opposite. Witchcraft gained momentum during the middle age. However, the presence of immense superstition gave rise to supernatural power, thus creating a ‘hodge podge’ of the practitioners of Witchcraft in the world. The present day Wiccans distance their practice from Christianity as they view it as a ‘male dominated’ religion. They believe that there should be proper balance in all the aspects of life.

Recently, archaeologists had discovered a collection of Papyri somewhere in Egypt which had increased the knowledge about this religion. The fragments of this sacred teaching have also given rise to various branches of Magick Path. The various branches of witchcraft do not leave out even a single discipline of the core Magick Principle that was obtained from the Magick Papyri. Thus, it can be said that witchcraft unleashes the immense power of Magick at your feet.

The presence of the right teacher when coupled with the ancient secrets of Magick will undoubtedly evoke one’s ability to change the environment around him in amazing ways.
