Wiccans worship the Earth and its natural energies, often referred to as the divine or the Goddess and the God. They believe in the interconnectedness of all living things and the power of nature. Wiccans practice their religion through rituals and ceremonies that celebrate the cycles of the seasons and honor the elements of earth, air, fire, and water. These rituals often involve the use of tools and symbols, such as a wand, athame, and pentacle, to help focus their energy and intention. Wiccans believe in personal responsibility and the importance of ethical behavior. They follow a moral code known as the Wiccan Rede, which states, "An it harm none, do what ye will" - meaning that as long as their actions do not cause harm to others, they are free to do as they wish.
Years ago someone allowed me a 'courtesy smoke' on one of theirs. I didn't care for it. Probably for the same reason I wouldn't care for a carb pipe. Like drinking instant coffee. If you just want a dry, filtered smoke, there are better ways, IMO.
The first was a freehand, Carey Magic Inch Freehand Briar Pipe, that set the stage for the next Magic Inch from the same batch Another Painful 70s Era E. I remember smoking it on a flight from Columbus, Ohio to Chicago in 1973 or 4, so it s got some cachet-- a pipe that was actually smoked on an airplane.

Wiccans also practice magic, which they believe is a way to harness and direct natural energies to bring about positive change in their lives and the world around them. Contrary to popular belief, Wiccans do not worship Satan or engage in harmful or malicious practices.
E.A. Carey pipes?
Did a search and found very little here. A seller on Etsy has an E.A. Carey "Magic Inch" pipe, a nice-looking walnut-colored billiard from the 2000s, and I see that the paper moisture-absorbing sleeves (and their modern pipes, for that matter) are still available on Carey's website. I love the way this one looks, and the price, even with shipping from France, is good.
Someone here said he's smoked nothing else but Careys since 1963, which sounds like a great testimonial. How are these pipes? Can they be smoked without the paper sleeve, if you run out?

They can not be smoked without the paper sleeve. The sleeve adds the resistance needed to create the draw. Without it you are just drawing in outside air. The magic inch pipes are interesting. You get a mix of cool outside air with warm smoke to cool it. It really does work but can also alter or weaken the intensity of flavors.
The whole magic inch system is in the stem. So it is possible to convert them to a regular pipe by fitting a normal stem.
The little filters are still available and pretty easy to find. Can get multiple smokes from them too of I remember correctly. Its been a little while since I've smoked mine haha.

My opinion is just that, and not intending to disparage others who may like the Careys. Some pipers do like them very much, and they've maintained a following for quite a few decades. Perhaps for a stronger high-powered blend they work better.
The only way you'll know if you like it is to try one.
I will say that Carey's rubber pipe bites are outstanding, however, and all I now use.

The one I'm looking at is inexpensive, as I said, even taking into account shipping from France, and very good looking. I may decide to go for it.
They have no connection to satanic or dark magic. Instead, they focus on healing, protection, and personal growth. Wiccans often work with herbs, stones, and energy healing to promote well-being and balance. Overall, Wiccans worship an interconnected and naturalistic spirituality that embraces the Earth and its energies. They seek to live in harmony with nature and honor the divine in all living things..
