Abstract
This poster explores Wiccan rituals of death and dying. We highlight differences and similarities between Wiccan death practices and the Christian practices that have informed mainstream Western culture. In doing so, we address prejudices against Wicca as an evil “cult” that uses “black magic” and draw on scholarship (Bado-Fralick 2002; Lozano & Foltz 1990), that instead conceptualizes Wicca as an earth-based and social-justice-oriented New Religious Movement with its own unique ways of celebrating life and death.
