Hi! I'm new here. My question is: Has anybody else noticed that there seems to be a trend of rejecting the label of "Wiccan," even among people who follow a Wiccan-ish system, like casting circles using the four elements, celebrating the eight sabbats, and seeing deity as the dual God and Goddess.
I think it's strange that the term has been rejected. Some people follow different traditions of Witchcraft that have different lineages than Wicca, like Feri and Dianic traditions. They may have a lot of Wiccan influence and are similar in ritual style (circles, four quarters, eight sabbats), they don't descend from Gardner.
Let's talk about it. Why is there such a trend to reject the Wiccan label, even among witchy people who follow a very Wiccanish system?
