Because Wicca is a belief that is ever growing and changing there are many different flavors of the same basic concepts. The following is a list of different traditions and some background on each. This list is by no means inclusive of all sects and beliefs, just the most prevalent ones.

 From the beginning of time the seasons of the year have affected our planet and the life forms on it. 
As human kind became less nomadic and more hunter/gathers we began to learn and work with the seasons. We planted in the early Spring, tended our crops through Summer, reaped our crops in the Autumn, and struggled to survive the Winter. We called upon the Gods throughout the growing season to help us to have a bountiful harvest. We called upon them again in the Winter to guide us through the darkness. 

Although our personal survival is no longer bound as closely to the land, the seasons still affect us. Winter is a dark and isolated time when many people become depressed and let go of this life. Spring makes us itch for freedom and we play hooky from other responsibilities to revel in the joy of new energy. Summer makes us lazy and content. We want to go out and take a nap in the grass while the warm breezes caress us. Autumn brings us back to our hearth fires and home and we begin nesting for Winter. 

This cycle continues year after year. The Wiccan’s name for this cycle of the seasons is The Wheel of the Year.

A magickal name is one that has been chosen by an individual to use during magickal workings. Some individuals also use these names as pen names for their writings. 

The energies attached to such names can be immense. They are not bantered around. Magickal names are created for a specific purpose and are focal points for intense magick.

There is no one true history of Wicca. The history of Wicca is as varied as its current day practitioners. Some individuals believe that modern day Wicca stretches back through history in an unbroken chain all the way back to the cavemen. Some claim to be hereditary Witches with their lineages going back for hundreds of years.

Wiccans view the calendar year as a wheel. This wheel progresses from one season to another and back again in a cyclical fashion. There are eight solar holidays in the Wiccan calendar. These holidays are called the Sabbats. 

There are thirteen moons in a Wiccan lunar year. Each of these moons emphasize the different energies through which both you and the earth are progressing.
