There are quite a few Dianics who are clinging to the "Wicca" term, but it's not strictly accurate. Wicca involves a male-female balance, so even if Dianics worship the God as well, they worship Him in a lesser sort of way than they worship the Goddess. That wouldn't really mesh with the equality of male and female that's important in Wiccan worship. So I wouldn't call either form of Dianic "Wicca".

But you do still see the term around.

I go back and forth between using 'eclectic Wiccan' and 'natural witch.' It just depends on who I'm talking to. Personally, I consider myself a natural kitchen witch that draws a lot of influence from Eastern religions.

Eclectic, which means I worshp according to my personal set of beliefs, as do all eclectics, instead of something preset lik Gardenirian (No idea if I spelled it right)

@Wiccan of the moon: sounds like your eclectic

If you mean you are an ecclectic Witch, certainly. There's no such thing as Ecclectic Wicca.

And it's spelled Gardnerian. wink

I repeat: there is no such thing as Eclectic Wicca. And it ceases to be anything Wiccan if you are adulterating its' proper practice with other practices from other faiths.

I guess neo pagan :/ I would say Wicca as that is what I study, however I never have been part of a coven, and there is only one that I know of near here.

I'm an Eclectic Wiccan. I follow the Rede, the Threefold Law, and I believe in the Lord and Lady. I'm not old enough to join a coven, and I prefer solitary work anyway.

Following the Rede and the Threefold Law does not make one Wiccan.
At best, you understand them in a skewed light, horridly out of context.
If you had any inkling of context, you'd be looking at the Ardanes over the Rede.

Belief in the Lord and Lady doesn't make one a Wiccan.
In fact, belief has nothing to do with being Wiccan.
How do you follow and worship two deities when you don't even know their names?
Why do you think that these two deities want worship from you when you are not doing it in the way that they have specified? In other words, what makes you so special?

I do not say this in rudeness. I am not calling your practice stupid or invalid. I am saying, however, that you are calling it by the incorrect title. This has been explained to you before. I do not understand why there is preference for a title that does not even remotely describe your faith. It makes me wonder if people do it more so they can use the title, or if they genuinely want a faith that works for them.
