Hi, my name is Phillis Cura and I'm a Wiccan priestess. And yes boys and girls, I'm a witch. I can't believe I'm saying that, except I've been saying that for a long time. As you can see, no pointy hat, no green face, et cetera. But yes, Wiccans practice witchcraft. In fact, the word wicca comes with the word witcha, it's an old Anglo-Saxon term. And witch is the phonetic spelling of that old Anglo-Saxon term wicca, it meant a wise one. It was the shaman of the local village. And there are other forms of witch craft, in Italian its stregheria. You have lots of different kinds, culturally defined kinds of witchcraft. But wicca comes primarily from England, Great Britain, it has Celtic influence and became very public in the early 1950's with Gerald Gardner who soft of rescued it from oblivion. He'd been initiated by the new forest coven in England and he stirred into that cauldron of a lot of creativity. There's romanticism and transcendentalism and the elegant golden dawn which was the poet that people knew, Yeats and Lady Gregory who helped create the Irish National Theater and George Bernard Shaw messed around with them. And with masonry he pulled in a lot of influences into contemporary Wicca. It's undergone tremendous transformations in the last 50 years. Especially with the influence of the role of women in Wicca. As priestesses and teachers have had a tremendous influence on transforming it and making it more dynamic. MY own tradition is the tradition of aura and it's a shamanic tradition because from the very beginning when I was initiated in 1981 I also began working with Michael Harner, Dr. Harner, who created the foundation for shamanic studies. So I was studying qua-shamanism that would tie into Wicca. Wicca has a root that goes back to the earliest religion to shamanism. It is very modern, it's a kind of modern renaissance of rediscovery. The ancestral wisdom of the British Isles and to some extent Ireland and Celtic countries as well. Yet it has a root that is deep in the Earth and goes to the earliest religion to shamanism. It's a specific cultural form, British, and Celtic, some Irish. A combination of the two along with cultural influences, and now it's very American, and very European. It's also all over Latin America, Brazil, there is a huge Wiccan movement in Brazil. And Columbia and Mexico, Australia, and each place and each era, each generation brings a new facet so it's a living religion. It's not dogmatic, and it's a personal spiritual path that's celebrated in community although you can practice. So it's constantly undergoing a kind of transformation, it grows and matures and it discovers new depths and new ways of practicing. It becomes more sophisticated too, becoming more clear and more effective and more powerful with each generation.- published: 22 Sep 2013

Hi, I'm Phyllis Curott and I'm a Wiccan Priestess and I'm here to talk to you about what Wiccans believe. Wiccans don't believe. Okay, but seriously, Wiccans don't believe. It's not a belief system. I think honestly if it had been I probably would have run for the hills. I'm a lawyer and a skeptic. Wicca is not about believing, it's about experiencing. It's not about believing in a God or a Goddess, it's not believing that divinity exists, it's about experiencing. You don't believe in water, you don't believe in air; you drink it, you inhale, you know that it exists. It's still mysterious, which is why science is wonderful because it peels off layers and so we get to learn more and more about the world that we're living in. Wicca is about discovery. It's about knowing. It's about learning. It's a spiritual practice that enables you to experience for yourself the sacredness of the world that you're living in and to learn from that. It's a constant source of engagement. You're expected, unlike most religions, to ask questions because the questions sort of open up the next path for you. You're not asked to believe, you're asked to learn, to challenge yourself, to challenge the world, to challenge teachers and to make use of the techniques so that you learn for yourself. In the end, what you believe is what you've come to know, what you've come to experience first hand. It's through experiencing first hand that you have confidence in what you know. It's a path of personal revelation and it works. It's a system of practices and it's not rooted in suspending your disbelief, it's about using your disbelief. You challenge yourself, you challenge the world you live in, you challenge your teachers and you challenge the universe. You challenge it to reveal itself to you and it does.- published: 22 Sep 2013

Emphasizing high-quality instructional videos, Howcast brings you experts who provide accurate information in easy-to-follow tutorials on everything from makeup, hairstyling, nail art design, and soccer to parkour, skateboarding, dancing, kissing, and much, much more. Wiccans do not worship anyone or anything. It's a trick question. It's about the word "worship." It's because we don't worship, not in the traditional sense of that word. Right. Worship means something that you kneel down to and that is usually transcendent, out there, beyond you, that you beg and plead with to intervene on your behalf, because you're powerless. And although we often are, the idea is not, the experience is not that the sacred is inaccessible but rather it's present. And so Wicca is a spiritual path that's not about worshipping. It's about, it is about reverence. It's about respect. It's about communion. First and foremost, it's about living in harmony with and living guided by, and what we are living in harmony with is the natural world, nature. We seek to live in harmony with it, because for us nature is an embodiment of the divine. It is, nature is the gown the goddess puts on in order to be seen. It's the dance that the god does. And we use anthropomorphic terms, and we have relationships with divinity as deity. And many Wiccans have special relationships with particular deities. I have a very deep, longstanding relationship with Persephone and with Diana, now very much with the Green Man. So deity can take what we think of as sort of anthropomorphic form, human form. But it is ultimately a mystery. It's beyond gender. And it's a unity that expresses itself in an infinite diversity, in an infinite variety. It's in each of us, and it's in every aspect of creation. So we understand, unlike sort of New Age, a lot of New Age thinking, that puts you at the center of the universe, that you are creating your reality, we understand that we contribute much more to the creation of our own personal realities than we may realize. And a lot of Wicca's about coming into an understanding, a revelation of that, and responsibility for it. But we see ourselves as a strand in the web, in a sacred web. We are not, at the moment that we cast a circle and honor the sacred we are in a certain sense, like the sacred tree. We're the conduit between sacred realms and material realms. But the material realm itself is sacred for us. There is no division. It's a unity. And we participate in it. We don't control everything. Believe me, if we did and we had those powers, it would be a very different world. It would be in harmony and balance and peace and all the things that nature would naturally be and that we have lost track of. But that's what the work is about. It's about living in right relationship to the divine as it expresses itself in the world that we live in. And it's about learning from that revealed divinity, and that's about communion and reverence, respect and joy, and gratitude.- published: 01 Oct 2013
