Abstract
El Paganismo Actual y, especialmente la Wicca, se ha convertido en uno de los temas más estudiados por los investigadores de las religiones durante las dos últimas
décadas. Sin embargo, es un área poco conocida en España, siendo una muestra de ello la prácticamente inexistente bibliografía en español sobre ella. Por esta razón, uno de los objetivos más importantes de este artículo es llamar la atención y despertar el interés sobre dichos fenómenos, los cuales han tenido una gran difusión e impacto en los países anglosajones principalmente. Los otros objetivos son, por un lado, ahondar en el conocimiento de las cuestiones relacionadas con el feminismo y la sexualidad que se enmarcan dentro de estas corrientes New Age, pues no sólo proveen las bases de algunos de sus rituales más interesantes, como el “Gran Rito” de Gerald Gardner, por ejemplo, así como de sus creencias, sino que también son fuente de notables contradicciones. Por otro, mostrar, a través de la comparación, la existencia de un cierto continuum entre las antiguas tradiciones religiosas y las actuales tanto a nivel de poder ritual, como de polaridad de géneros.
Contemporary Paganism, and above all Wicca, has become in one of the most studied topic by the scholars of Religious Studies during the last two decades. However, it is a little-known area in Spain, as shown the barely existing bibliography in Spanish about it. That´s why, one of the most important aim of this article is generate interest in these phenomena, which have experimented a great spreading and impact in the English-speaking world. The other objectives are: on the one hand, deal with the matters of Feminist and Sexuality, as providing the New Age movements not only with the bases of some of their most interesting rituals, like the “Great Rite” of Gerald Gardner, for example, but also they are sources of big contradictions. On the other hand, show, through the comparison, the existence of a kind of continuum between old religious traditions and new ones, both ritual power and gender polarity.
