What is Vicia?


Vicia is a branch of the Anderson Feri Tradition of Witchcraft. There are many branches or lines within Feri, each with its own unique flavor and practices. Thumbnail descriptions of some of these lines may be found on this site under "Branches of Feri." The word "Vicia" also has an older meaning. In her book, Fifty Years in the Feri Tradition, Cora Anderson writes: "Before the tradition was called Fairy, it was known as Vicia, pronounced as in Italian." (vee-chyah)

In Vicia, we work with a core body of lore, rituals, liturgy, and practices taught by Victor and Cora Anderson to their direct initiates. While preserving intact the material taught by Andersons, we also add new material of our own creation and discovery. According to the Andersons, creative inspiration is a sign of contact with the divine, and discovery is an essential part of the work of Witches. Victor often spoke of Witchcraft as a magical science. He believed that the abilities we possess and cultivate should be used not only for our own benefit but also for the benefit of the entire human community.

Evo-he, Blessed Be!
