What Gods and Goddeses of the Wiccan Religion?

0

Essentially, they have two deities: The God and The Goddess. But the various deities found in all past pagan religions are seen as just different manifestations of The God and The Goddess. So in one sense, yes Wicca does have two “main” deities, but at the same time it can utilize “a mixture of polytheistic religions”. A Wiccan could, for example, invoke “Isis” in a ritual, while another might choose to use “Aphrodite”. Typically, it depends on the nature of the ritual too. Somebody doing a love spell might use deities like Aphrodite or Venus, whereas, say, a soldier in the army (and yes there are Wiccans in the military) might work Mars or Thor into a meditation. Also, some covens may focus on a particular name more often than others.
