I have always known the rituals to contain the elements and thought of they as my living, breathing life components. I have many people call it Wicca format and said that is the only format I know but when research this I have found it in many beliefs. Is calling on the elements just a format of Wicca or is it both Wicca and pagan. I am now confused and think I am getting bashed for my beliefs. I always known the pentacle as the star of life and based my rituals around it.
