Traditional Witchcraft is a term that was introduced to refer to the aboriginal spiritual traditions of Europe. There really is no collective historical term that could be used to refer to these traditions, so the use of the term Traditional Witchcraft fit quite nicely. Those who follow these traditional ways are often referred to as Traditionalists.

Unfortunately, in an effort for Traditionalists to define their cultural beliefs and traditions which varied dramatically from those proposed within the Neo-Pagan movement, somehow the term Traditional Witchcraft was also adopted by those who became disenchanted with Neo-Paganism and its Wiccan counterpart. Still others adopted the term Traditional Witchcraft as a rebellious movement against the fluffy bunny goodness and light that seemed to be manifesting itself within Paganism. Of course, this deviated so incredibly from the definition of Traditional Witchcraft and from those who actually are Traditionalists.

These forums will primarily focus on Traditional Witchcraft as it refers to the old traditions of the Ancestors and will embrace family traditions, reconstructionalists, and others who seek to follow the ways of the ancestors and honor the land in accordance with tradition. There are also areas within the forums for the discussion of the more sorcerous persuasions of Traditional Witchcraft such as those contained within Sabbatic Witchcraft.
