Wow. I'm sorry I missed this thread earlier, although I should have guessed that there are a number of pagans hanging around on the thread .

Steve, it depends on how much of a "beginner" you are. If you're looking for some very basic information about wicca then "The Truth About Witchcraft Today" by Scott Cunningham is a good place to start. This is a very introductory book that was written mainly for non-believers who've discovered that they have a friend or family member who is wiccan and want to know more about their beliefs. If you're looking for something a touch more advanced so you can begin your own practices than Cunningham's "Wicca - A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner" may be a good next step, but it's ONLY a step. There's a lot of information out there - some of it good, some of it bad - and as Storm Crow pointed out there's a ton of variation in the different pagan traditions (going far beyond what can really be considered "wicca"), so a lot of reading is a must
Help_Needed Reviewed by Help_Needed on . Wicca and weed?? Does anybody know how weed is viewed in Wicca covens?? It seems to me that with weed being of mother earth, that it would be acceptable.... but I could be wrong. I dunno, are there any witches, or goddesses on here that could shed some light??....and no, I'm not talking about "goth" wannabes. TIA Rating: 5
