Reddit reviews Wicca: The Old Religion In the New Millennium

Suggested reading: Vivianne Crowley - Wicca: An Old Religion for the New Millenium. Jungian interpretation of Wicca.

Merry Meet Riley. Many Wiccans are "recovering christians." It makes a lot of sense to those of us who have followed that path and made that journey. Many of us were raised in a christian family and eventually discovered that we didn't fit. The world is a lot older and deeper than Christian dogma.

I'm not really sure what you are asking for here. If you want a recommended book for someone following that path I might suggest reading Wicca: The Old Religion In the New Millennium by Vivianne Crowley. If you are looking for a web site to read, or for my personal advice I might suggest our own coven brochure page or our mythic history of the old ways page. Not every Wiccan agrees with everything we say but the site gets a lot of traffic.

In addition to reading things you can try to make contact with Wiccans in your local area. Our festival of Mabon is coming up in a couple of weeks and many communities have open celebrations where interested people can attend and begin learning. Finding other local Wiccans begins with a listing site called Witchvox that has local outreach listings sorted by location. Groups that list themselves on Witchvox are doing so to invite people like you, so don't hesitate to contact them and ask questions. Also Google for "Wicca, mytown" or "Pagan, mytown.). There is a site called Meetup that many groups use to schedule and publish local events for interested people.

I do wish you well. May the Lord and Lady guide your path.
