Contemporary witchcraft
:''This article is about contemporary witchcraft including, but not limited to Wicca.''
Contemporary witchcraft or modern witchcraft refers to the various traditions of witchcraft practiced in the present day.
Contemporary witchcraft is largely a subset of greater Modern Paganism. Its practice involves varying degrees of magic, shamanism, folk medicine, spiritual healing, calling on elementals and spirits, veneration of ancient deities and archetypes, and attunement with the forces of nature.
==History==
In the years following the witch-hunts of early modern Europe and North America, little information of Witches trickled into the public space (from Witches nor from those who claimed to know of Witches).〔 However, this began changing in the early to mid-20th century. In the 1920s, the long-standing witch-cult hypothesis gained increasing attention in occult circles. Though the hypothesis itself was largely falsifiable, it spurred renewed interest in witchcraft - this time with new eyes and free of the panicked bias of years past.〔
