Dianic

The term Dianic is derived from the Greek goddess of hunting, Diana. It refers to those Neopagan religious traditions that place emphasis on the feminine divine. Historically, there have been three main branches of Dianic Neopaganism:

• Dianic Wicca, a feminist lineage tradition of Wicca started by Zsuzsanna Budapest.
• McFarland Dianic, a Neopagan lineage tradition started by Morgan McFarland .
• Feminist Dianic Witches, who may have been inspired by Z Budapest, the New York Redstocking's W.I.T.C.H. manifesto, or feminist spirituality movements, who emphasize self-initiation, womanism and non-hierarchical organization.
