Default I'm interested in wicca, where do I begin my path?

There's just so much to learn, I don't know where to begin! I'm not into much witchcraft or having a book of shadows, but all of the other Wicca beliefs and nature worship really interest me. Where do I go from here?
I didn't ask for any smartest,Ryust a simple answer. If you don't have one, gtfo.
...you have to be kidding me. I don't care if you don't agree with wicca or think that wiccans are hippies. How about this, if you're not wiccan or pegan, hit that pretty little red x on the top right hand corner of your screen. thank you.

I'd recommend Hogwarts. They have an awesome reputation.

Right here ----->


"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believer in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

He that believer on him is not condemned: but he that believer not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

For every one that doth evil hater the light, neither comet to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

But he that doth truth comet to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God." (John 3:16-21)

Here is what you do:

Grow your hair long but do not brush it for 2 years.
Invest in at least seven cats.
Adopt a self-righteous attitude.
Cease using hygiene products that don't consist of Lush hard shampoo bars and deodorant blocks.
Buy your clothes from the covered market rainbow stall that no-one else goes near.
Stop cleaning your house, cleaning is for boring people who are less deep than you.
Pretend to like Radio 4.
Never travel abroad again.
Change your name to Polly.
Harbour the misconception that everyone thinks you're a fun eccentric.
Publicise the fact that you have a stronger "pull" to nature than anyone else has ever had - EVER.
Lose any ability you once had to laugh at yourself, oh I see you already have - splendid!

EDIT I see you've acquired an absolute intolerance to those who do not hold the exact same beliefs as you, that would've been the last point on my list. I'm sure you'll make a wonderful Wiccan.

EDIT Oh and it's Pagan not 'peg an', I think learning to spell your chosen path is probably the first port of call on your spiritual journey.

Convert any image into something that represents nature, or your wishes, then create chants, and you will have achieved, what is classified as Wicca or witchcraft.

witchcraft IS Wicca and Wicca IS witchcraft

If you are into worship ping nature you might want to look at the other Pagan paths
like druidRyshamanism
Asatru
etc

And have a look at Pantheism too.

If you can, I recommend picking up Scott Cunningham's book, Wicca, A Guide for the Solitary Practicioner. There is also Raymond Buckland's book, Wicca For One.

Being Wiccan and being a witch do not always go together. there are witches who aren't vicunas and vicunas who are not witches. Wicca is a belief system and witchcraft is the use of magi ck.

you need to study. study diff rent books, web pages, other vicunas, and nature. you need to gain as much knowledge as you possibly can to find out what parts you believe and what you don't. no two Wiccans will believe exactly the same thing so don't be put back if you don't have the same views that other Wiccans do (I asked a question on here "Wiccans, what do YOU believe" you could look at the answers to see what I mean). You need to start building relationships with the gods, goddesses, aliments, nature and anything else you can because they will help you to find your path more than any human could. if after all of this research that you have done and knowledge that you have gained about yourself, your believes, the wiccan religion, and the world around you, you can deside if Wicca is the right path for you and dedicate yourself to it.

hope I helped and sorry that you didn't get a lot of answers you were looking for.
