The Wicca is defined as the "religion of nature" or "old religion", and its principles are based on the cult of nature and the cycles that belong to it. According to this religion, one cannot believe in anything that is outside the natural (defined as supernatural), but only in one's own personal ethics, one's own desires, one's own abilities. The divine is in every human being, it is enough only to be able to see it, know it and understand it. All this requires a certain assiduity in the rituals, important from the moment of initiation to their daily practice.
