(Anonymous) 2013-03-12 01:17 am (UTC)(link)I agree totally, and thanks for bringing this point up - Wicca and Traditional Witchcraft are not the same thing. Wiccans do still do workings (spell crafting) outside of our other rituals for celebrating the cycle of the seasons and the moon, but you're right we do also have our own system of belief, with our own views of deity and the various laws and rede, and so on, that a Traditional Witch doesn't necessarily follow. I tend to cringe whenever I see a, albeit well meaning for the most part, fellow Wiccan trying to tell someone who has clearly stated they follow Traditional Witchcraft, that they're doing it wrong, and they can't be a proper Witch because they're not following the Threefold law, or the Wiccan Rede, or *insert whatever other specific Wiccan thing here*.
Some good articles on the topic ~ Wicca vs Traditional Witchcraft

(Anonymous) 2013-03-12 01:33 am (UTC)(link)There's not even one thing that is "traditional witchcraft". Especially considering how syncretic a lot of american pagan tradition has become, people can be a heritage practitioner with roots in hoodoo or native practices or any one of europe's traditions. I tend for a mix of celtic and kemetic reconstruction (which, weirdly, is not unique to me) so I am very aware of the multiplicities of paths. I just wish more wiccan writers would acknowledge that, dammit! :)
The rule of three is well and good (or the rule of however many that pcp came up with) but isn't something I agree with or care about.
