Wicca is a modern pagan, witchcraft religion that emerged in the mid-20th century. Wiccan witches follow a set of traditions and practices that are rooted in nature and ancient pagan beliefs. The traditions of a Wiccan witch encompass various aspects of their spiritual and magical practices. One of the main traditions observed by Wiccan witches is the worship and reverence of the divine in nature. Wiccans believe in a duality of male and female energies, often represented as the God and Goddess. These deities are associated with different aspects of life and nature, and Wiccans seek to establish a connection with them through rituals and ceremonies.

Then Joxo asked the bad witch how did you get in and go pass the guards without getting court. She said none of your business so hand over the crown otherwise plan bee you will be turned into a horse. Jox said pass don’t but its mine then the bad witch said hand it over now. I don’t care if it’s your I just want it then Joxo replied with a no again frightened at the same time. Joxo thought of running through the door then he gave it a ago. Then sadly Joxo turned into a horse well not just a horse the ugliest horse in the whole universe but at the same time Joxo kinda liked being a horse and at the same time he hated it he misses his self again so he growled and screamed and yelled even though there was no use. Joxo heard footsteps coming through the door then the witch disappeared into thin air, then it was his friends that works at the farms that came out to visit.

Wiccan witches mark eight significant festivals or Sabbats throughout the year, which are tied to the changing seasons. These festivals include Samhain, Yule, Imbolc, Ostara, Beltane, Litha, Lammas, and Mabon. Each Sabbat has its own significance and rituals associated with it, such as bonfires, feasting, dancing, and spellcasting. The Wheel of the Year gives Wiccans a deeper connection to the natural cycles of life and allows them to celebrate and honor the changing seasons. Wiccan witches also follow a code of ethics known as the Wiccan Rede. This code emphasizes the importance of doing no harm and adhering to the principles of love, kindness, and respect for all beings. Wiccans believe in the concept of karma, where any energy or intention put out into the world will come back to the sender. Therefore, they strive to live their lives in harmony with others and the natural world. In addition to these traditions, Wiccan witches often practice spellcraft and magick. Rituals and spells are carried out with the intention of manifesting specific desires or bringing about positive change in one's life. Wiccans use various tools and symbols in their rituals, such as the pentacle, athame, wand, cauldron, and herbs. These tools are believed to help channel and focus energy during spellcasting. Overall, the traditions of a Wiccan witch revolve around a deep connection to nature, a reverence for the divine, the celebration of the seasonal cycles, and ethical living. By following these traditions, Wiccans seek to live harmoniously with the natural world and harness its energies for spiritual growth and magical practice..
