thatyrj asked this question on 4/10/2000:

I've been studying religions and faiths for about ten years. I've pretty much got who believes in what. Wicca however, still seems to be "calling" me. The problem is I live in a country in which that kind of "religion" is not very easy to study. Brazil is a majorly catholic nation and, trust me, I've looked, but I haven't found any covens much less anyone to talk to about this. How do I start out in this solitary path? Is there any basic literature I should read? How do I know that wicca is really "right" for me? Are only people of nordic ascent capable of the practice? If anyone out there can help.... I'll be truly grateful :) Thanks!!

Blessings to you, Thatyri!

If wicca seems to be of interest, or "calling" you, then by all means continue your interest. there may not be a widespread wiccan community in Brazil, but that is what the internet is for! if you are looking for a good reference book, try Scott Cunningham's 'Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner' or Raymond Bucklands 'Complete GT Witchcraft' These books are available online.

Also, it is not one's descent or skin color that determine if wicca is your calling, it is what you feel within you.
