Elements of Wicca is a course we have been running for more than 20 years helping people interested in Wicca as a spiritual path move from reading to practicing. Many solitary practitioners also enjoy the course to learn more and find a path to move deeper into their spiritual evolution. You will receive the Elements of Wicca Notebook, a 70 page document to use during the course.
