Wicca is an earth-centered religion that draws heavily from western European folk practices. Contrary to popular belief, it isn’t an ancient practice — Wicca<\/a> as we know it came into being in the mid 21st century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of its age, it is a widely practiced religion with a well-defined set of beliefs and practices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s so popular, in fact, that Wicca magic has formed the basis for many other Pagan<\/a> and reconstructionist magical systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are new to Wicca, it can seem a bit daunting. There’s a lot to learn, and many Wiccans consider it important to be well-read. Here are some of the basics of Wiccan magic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Threefold Law and the Wiccan Rede<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before getting started, it’s vital to recognize that many, though not all, Wiccans hold themselves to: The Threefold Law. This describes the way that spiritual energy circulates — namely, that whatever you put out into the world will return to you multiplied by three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wiccan Rede is a brief descriptor of Wicca’s moral system. It is adapted from a much longer poem, and can be summed up as, “An harm ye none, do what thou wilt.” This is often shortened simply to, “Harm none.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way this is put into practice can vary from person to person, but it still forms the basic moral underpinning of the religion and governs how many witches use their Wicca magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
