Circle

By , About.com Guide

Definition:

The circle is a place of worship in Wicca and Paganism. Unlike religions that have stationary buildings such as churches or temples, Wiccans and Pagans can celebrate their rites anywhere simply by consecrating the area and casting a circle. A consecrated circle keeps positive energy in, and negative energy out. Some Wiccans consider a circle to be a space between this world and the next.

Examples:
Willow plans to cast a circle before she begins the coven's ritual.
