Read the following before clicking on "join this group".

TraditionalWitchcraft is a discussion group for all aspects of pre-Gardnerian Witchcraft, Traditional Witchcraft and Traditional Paganistic practices.

It should be noted that for the purposes of this list, "Wicca" refers to those initiatory lines deriving from the New Forest region as taught by Gerald Gardner, Alex Sanders and others, and that "Wicca" does not include all of the permutations of witchcraft. Neo-Wicca is used as a descriptor for the Wicca-inspired/derived practices popularized by writers such as Scott Cunningham, Silver Ravenwolf, and others.

While Wiccans and neo-Wiccans are welcome here, the focus of this list is on other forms of witchcraft than Wicca.
