What does WICCA mean in Scrabble?
noun
A modern nature-based religion centred on the worship of a goddess and god and on the practice of ritual magic.
Followers of Wicca mark the changing seasons with festivals tied to the sun and moon and often work in small groups called covens, though solitary practice is also common. The religion took shape in England in the middle of the twentieth century and presents itself as drawing on older pagan practices from before Christianity, even though the organised form of Wicca itself is recent. It has no single central authority or fixed scripture, so beliefs and rituals differ noticeably from one group of Wicca practitioners to another.
