ENT_WIC_DRYGHTYN,PER_WICCA The Dryghtyn (the One) ENT_WIC_DRYGHTYN Modern Wicca / Pagan Witchcraft PER_WICCA high The impersonal ultimate of much Wiccan theology — the 'One' or supreme power behind the God and Goddess, named in Valiente's 'Dryghtyn Prayer'. Held within the tradition as the source from which both deities emanate. SRC_VALIENTE_WFT reviewed
ENT_WIC_HORNED_GOD,PER_WICCA The Horned God ENT_WIC_HORNED_GOD Modern Wicca / Pagan Witchcraft PER_WICCA high The male deity of Wicca, ritually invoked at sabbats; consort of the Goddess and lord of life, death and rebirth. Genuinely worshipped across Wiccan covens; Gardner and Valiente drew his imagery from Cernunnos and Pan. SRC_VALIENTE_WFT reviewed
ENT_WIC_PANTHEON,PER_WICCA The Wiccan Pantheon (hub) ENT_WIC_PANTHEON Modern Wicca / Pagan Witchcraft PER_WICCA high Collective hub for the deities and ritual powers venerated in modern Wicca/pagan witchcraft. SRC_HUTTON_TRIUMPH reviewed
ENT_WIC_TRIPLE_GODDESS,PER_WICCA The Triple Goddess (Maiden, Mother, Crone) ENT_WIC_TRIPLE_GODDESS Modern Wicca / Pagan Witchcraft PER_WICCA high The Great Goddess of Wicca in her threefold lunar aspect (Maiden / Mother / Crone), invoked devotionally in coven ritual; her aspects align with classical lunar goddesses Hecate, Diana and Selene. SRC_VALIENTE_WFT reviewed
ENT_WIC_WATCHTOWER_GUARDIANS,PER_WICCA The Guardians of the Watchtowers ENT_WIC_WATCHTOWER_GUARDIANS Modern Wicca / Pagan Witchcraft PER_WICCA high The four elemental quarter-guardians (Earth/North, Air/East, Fire/South, Water/West) invoked when casting the Wiccan circle. DISTINCT from the Enochian Watchtowers though terminologically descended from them via the Golden Dawn. SRC_VALIENTE_WFT reviewed
ENT_WIC_WHEEL_OF_YEAR,PER_WICCA The Wheel of the Year (Eight Sabbats) ENT_WIC_WHEEL_OF_YEAR Modern Wicca / Pagan Witchcraft PER_WICCA high The eightfold ritual calendar of Wicca — the four 'greater' (Samhain, Imbolc, Beltane, Lughnasadh) and four 'lesser' (solstices/equinoxes) sabbats — enacting the cyclical relationship of the God and Goddess. A core practiced ritual cycle. SRC_HUTTON_TRIUMPH reviewed
