C oven of C ythrawl stegheria Wicca (strega) Italian witches, known as Strega, walk the path of the Old Religion (Str. They are the witches of Ancient Italy. In 1890, folklorist Charles Leland published a book titled ARADIA; GOSPEL OF THE WITCHES . Although it was typical in many ways of the distorted Christian image of Witchcraft of this period, we do find several things of interest. In Leland's book, Italian witches worship a goddess and a god, meet for full moon rituals and celebrate with singing, dancing and making love. Their celebration also includes a feast containing cakes and wine. In 1609, Francesco Guazzo published several woodcuts in his book Compendium Maleficarum. One of these Italian woodcuts depicts witches gathered inside a circle drawn upon the ground. In 1954, Gerald Gardner describes English Witchcraft in very much the same way. Take a look at some of the topics on this Web Page for other interesting similarities between the Strega Path and Wicca. What is valuable in Leland's book Aradia; Gospel of the Witches is that we find a very interesting view of pre-Gardnerian Witchcraft in Italy. Leland gives an account of Witches who gather nude to worship a goddess and a God when the moon is full. During this celebrate they enjoy cakes and wine, and they sing, dance and make love. For those readers who believe that Gardner invented these concepts, bear in mind that this was written in 1890, over half a century before Gardner's writings.

Academy of Athena Stregheria: An Old World Religion taught by Bellezza Squillace June 29 - 30, 2002 Stregheria is called the Old Religion by those who practice it. Filled with rich history from north to south on the Italian peninsula as well as on the island of Sicily, there are many common threads to our belief system and just as many differences. A full range of topics will be explored, including the various pantheons, fairy folk, ritual formats, the evil eye, ancestor worship, and how the modern Strega practices in her family, community and the world. The Witch Ball is an ancient object made for protection by Italians. It has a rich history and during the workshop we will craft them. Like all Stregheria and elder witch objects, this tool can be placed anywhere during the holidays and go unnoticed as pagan. The spell with it is: Symbol of the Moon, Symbol of the Lady Divine, Reject all negativity, Defend this home, me and mine. Bellezza Squillace was born into a Strega family and also raised Roman Catholic. She is an ordained Dianic Priestess of RCGI who lives in Minnesota. Her private spirituality combines both her cultural heritage and her chosen religion. Bellezza publishes a quarterly newsletter called Berkana and teaches a ritual training group, Women Of The Rite (WOTR) RECOMMENDED READING: Aradia: Gospel of Witches , by Charles Leland.

We Are Streghe Stregheria is our religion; La Vecchia Religione, the Old Religion, the root of our spirituality. Together, we learn, grow, celebrate, worship, practice, share. Individually, we celebrate our differences and learn from them, offering of ourselves for each other's benefit and for the circle as a whole. We dance, laugh, sing, cry, live. We are one, the union of our individual selves greater than the mere sum of our number. We are each unique, powerful, beautiful, divine. We are Streghe. So...You Want to Be a Strega? IIn the old days, the Streghe were the Wise Ones, the Spiritual Warriors, the Healers of the clans and communities. They dedicated their lives in the service of the God and Goddess. The secrets of Stregheria were only passed down to dedicated members within the Strega's family, who were oath-bound not to divulge these secrets outside of the family or to the non-dedicated. Only the mature could become dedicated to Stregheria, yet not every man or woman who was mature could become a keeper of the great secrets of Stregheria. Balance is vital to Stregheria. Both positive and negative energies exist naturally in nature, as they do in the "Old Religion." A Strega must be able to work with both. It is the wise oneís role to know when to use one or the other for the good of the clan or the community. We are not Wiccan, nor are we bound by their rede or their laws. We are Strega! We are dedicated to the God and Goddess.

*History Of Stregheria* The Old Religion of Italy first began to form arond the beliefs of early, pre - Etruscan Italians. The mystery teachings and the magickal practices were further developed and refined by the Etruscans, who appeared in Italy around 1000 B.C.E., establishing the great Etruscan empire. The Etruscans were known historically for their great magickal and mystical knowledge. The persecution of Witches in Italy did not become violent until the late 14th century, and even then the Church struck out mainly against organized groups. Solitary village Witches were generally tolerated, continuing the roles of village healer, herbalist, midwife and counselor; thus Italian Witchcraft remained relatively intact throughout the Middle Ages. In Italian, there are different words for witch/magician/sorcerer: Strega (stray - gah) means female witch. Stregone (stray - gonay) means male witch. Mago (mah - joh) means magician and Maga (mah - jah) means sorceress. The Italian words for Witchcraft are Stregheria (stray - gare - e - ah); Stregoneria (stray - go - neer - ee - ah) and Magia (mah - jee ah). The Italian word for coven is Boschetto (boss - ket - oh), which means grove; Selva, which means forest; or Congrega. Today, there are many traditions of Stregheria: Silvani (found in Naples, Florence, Palmero and Messina), Benandanti (found in the Fruili region and in north and northeast Italy), Luperci, Cavellini, Italian Fairy, Sicilian, Nemaic and Trinacrian (found in the US).

78. Streghe Check it out.. stregheria celebrate 8 holidays. These seem to correspond with theWiccan Holidays. This is not intended to explain the religion of stregheria. http://owlfire.net/streghe.html

The Streghe Year do not claim to be an expert in Streghe, but wish to emphasize that Italian Witchcraft is NOT Wicca. These religions are completely unrelated. Check it out.. Stregheria celebrate 8 holidays. These seem to correspond with the Wiccan Holidays. This can possibly be attributed to the fact that Charles Leland, a main figure in Wicca, derived many practices from Aradia , which is Italian in origin. The holidays are: La festa dell' Ombra- October 31st La Festa dell' Inverno- Winter Solstice Festa di Lupercus- Around Feb 2nd Equinozio della Primavera- Spring Equinox La Giornata di Diana- Beltane La Festa dell Estate- Summer Solstice Corncopia- In first week of August Equinozio di Autunno- Autumn Equinox Please note that this is intended only to be a demonstration of various "wheels of the year" within various traditions. This is not intended to explain the religion of Stregheria. I am no expert and the religion of Stregheria is complex and multi-faceted. For this reason I have not included an explanation of what each holiday entails. It is also exteremely difficult to find infortaion of this tradition. Information on Italian "style" Wicca abound.. but Stregheria is a religion that is much more family based and is passed in great part orally throughout generations. If anyone who practices Stregheria (not Wicca!) visits this site and can clarify any of my information, please feel free to do so..thanks.

Wiccan Paths (Traditions) Gardnerian Wicca A retired British civil servant named Gerald B. Gardner is the 'Grandfather', at the very least, of almost all Neo-Wicca. He was initiated into a coven of Witches in the New Forest region of England in 1939 by a High Priestess named 'Old Dorothy' Clutterbuck. In 1949 he wrote a novel [*High Magic's Aid*] about medieval Witchcraft in which quite a bit of the Craft as practiced by that coven was used. In 1951 the last of the English laws against Witchcraft were repealed (primarily due to the pressure of Spiritualists) and Gardner published *Witchcraft Today*, which set forth a version of the rituals and traditions of that coven. There is an enormous amount of disagreement about virtually every statement I have made in this paragraph. Gardnerism is both a tradition and a family, and lineage is a family tree. The High Priestess rules the coven, and the principles of love and trust preside. We follow our handed down book more carefully than many others, but we are free to add and improvise, as long as we preserve the original. We work skyclad, practice binding and scourging, are hierarchal and secretive, therefore we are controversial. We're also controversial because we were first - the first craft tradition in the U. S. and descended from the man largely responsible for starting the craft revival. So, we're called 'the snobs of the craft', but I think we're as much fun as anyone else; our parties as good, our jokes as bad'

80. Avalon Metaphysical - Aradia: Gospel Of The Witches Reviews 1. Leland's book isn't bad, although it has precious littleto do with stregheria. stregheria is secretive, even today. http://www.metaphysical.bc.ca/arda.htm

Author Leland, Charles G. Title Aradia: Gospel of the Witches Reviews: 1. Leland's book isn't bad, although it has precious little to do with stregheria. One cannot blame him, we strege tend to be very secretive about ourselves even now, much less a century ago. The invocations are beautiful, and the legends are charming. However, that is about the extent of it's worth. I would recommend it to those students who already have a basic knowledge of the craft, as such individuals will be better equipped to ferret out the gold from the lead. ... Lisa 2. After reading the book, I am led to believe that there may be some factual information in the book. There is also a lot that is not true. Leland seemed to accept everything Maddalena said as "Gospel" (pardon the pun). Stregheria is secretive, even today. A century ago, it was even more secretive. Maddalena was paid by Leland, and gave him what she felt he wanted to hear. -Chuck 3. This is a very good book, but if you are looking for a book about Stregheria I would suggest, Ways of the Strega, by Raven Grimassi - monsters 4. For those interested in stregheria, read the book by Raven Grimassi, published by Llewellyn. Lelands book is good to read, but can be misleading; it has been widely criticized and quesitoned, but there are many elements of truth to be found.- ShadowWolf
