Everything You Need to Know about Wicca, Witchcraft, and Magic Even in today's scientific world of logic and reason, most of us can't escape the feeling that there is more to the Universe than meets the eye - a world beyond the physical world in which we live. Many of us still carry with us superstitions, a belief that a specific action or object can positively influence the outcome of certain events. You might not realize it, but superstitions stem from the underlying properties of the energy that makes up our Universe. This energy is something that ancient civilizations were well aware of, but has seemingly been lost in today's technologically-driven world. For thousands of years, our ancestors believed that the Elements - Earth, Air, Fire, and Water - were the building blocks of the Universe, and their inherent properties and energies could be directed to manifest a particular outcome. In other words, the Elements are an integral component of Witchcraft and Magic, as practiced by some of the most revered members of ancient civilizations. Wicca is a religion that draws from the belief systems of these ancient civilizations, putting it in a modern context. Wiccans have a close relationship with the natural world, the cycles of life, and the magical properties of the universe - just as our ancestors would. Foundations for Practicing Witchcraft and Magic One intriguing aspect that draws people towards Wicca is the concept of Witchcraft and Magic and the idea that we can positively impact our circumstances. However, Wicca has no sacred text; with no place to learn about the Wiccan religion and its many fascinating components, many people are put off. With no central source, Wiccans are responsible for piecing together different fragments of Wicca for themselves, in order to get a clear picture of what the religion means to them. As one of the more intangible aspects of Wicca, good information relating to Magic and Witchcraft are even more difficult to find. As a result, many Wiccans who wish to start practicing Witchcraft simply do not know where to start and will give up on the idea.
