 True Witches are not
evil as they are often portrayed as being and only cast
positive, helpful spells. They follow the nature
based religion of Witchcraft and don't believe
in the devil at all. One of their main tenets is
"And it harm none, do what you will". Sometimes
incorrectly called Wiccan's, Wicca is a separate
off shoot of Witchcraft.
A&E's documentary
Ancient Mysteries looks at the history of
witches from ancient times through the Salem
Witch Trials to modern day Witches and Wiccans. It
also examines how peoples perceptions of witches have evolved over
time. |
