no they have deity figures that they worship maiden mother and crone that sounds familiar no

Wiccans seem to be all over the map ... some are said to be atheists or agnostics. So I suppose it's possible, though one wonders why one who had no belief in the supernatural would desire to claim to be a Wiccan.

Maybe agnostic.. but the wiccan belief system has a higher power, so I have to say no.

Wiccans tend to be nice, decent, rational, and welcoming people. It is though, as a belief system, dependent on the acceptance of the linked spirituality of all of nature. Therefore, you can’t be Wiccan and an atheist/agnostic. However, they don’t believe in a head honcho, god, or whatever you want to call it. But it’s the spiritual element that is the disqualifier. All of them that I’ve had contact with have no time for, or belief in, any of the tenets of any religion you can think of. And they themselves don’t consider Wicca to be a religion; rather, it’s a way of life.

atheism, not being a religion, has no handbook, rules or organization. all it has is its definition, on which not every disagrees, but the two in contention are:

1. the lack of belief that any gods exist

2. the belief that no gods exist

atheism isn't "lack of religion." it isn't "anger at god." it's one of the two things, or both of the two things, i named above. if your belief is not about one of those two things, you can still correctly call yourself an atheist. (it's not a matter of "can you do this or that" except "can you correctly call yourself an atheist." )

i don't know enough about wicca to know whether it is compatible with atheism, but some of the responses below lead me to believe that wicca itself is not incompatible but that some wiccans are atheists and others are not. i guess it's like vegetarians: some vegetarians play chess and some don't.

Ages ago I belonged to a fairly large online quilting group of Witches. They came from several different belief angles. There were several that were Christian. Some were Buddhist. Most of them would probably just consider themselves spiritual. There was truly quite a range of beliefs in that group. Even the practices and "witch" beliefs varied a great deal. I might have been the only Atheist in the group though. I'd gotten sick and tired of all the god crap on all the other quilting groups and they were accepting and welcoming where the Christian groups tended to be rather judgmental.

Overall they were a very caring and giving group.

No. Anyone who uses candles and spells to influence spirits isn't an atheist.

I’m not going to claim it’s something I know a great deal about. As an atheist, I have zero believe in any gods, the supernatural, ghosts, witches, etc.. but that’s just me. There’s a continuum of everyone’s own beliefs or lack there of.
