Wicca is a form of pagan witchcraft, with certain rituals, they have a religion, and magical beliefs. Wicca is a duotheistic religion worshipping a God and a Goddess, who are seen as complementary polarities, and embodiments of a life-force manifest in nature. They are sometimes symbolised as the Sun and Moon. The Goddess is seen as complete unto herself, and the God is not worshipped at all.
When practising magic and casting spells, as well as when celebrating various festivals, Wiccans use a variety of rituals. In typical rites, the coven or solitary assembles inside a ritually cast and purified magic circle. Casting the circle may involve the invocation of the Guardians of the cardinal points: East (Air), South (Fire), West (Water) and North (Earth). This use of the classical elements is a key feature of the Wiccan world-view. Every manifest force or form is seen to express one or more of the four elements. Some add a fifth or quintessential element called Spirit (also called aether or akasha). The five points of the frequently worn pentagram symbolise, among other things, the four elements with spirit presiding at the top. Once the circle is cast, a seasonal ritual may be performed, prayers to the God and Goddess are said, and spells are sometimes worked.
Many Wiccans use a special set of magical tools in their rituals. These can include a broom, cauldron, chalice, wand, Book of Shadows, altar cloth, athame, boline, candles, crystals, pentacle and/or incense. An altar is usually present in the circle, on which ritual tools are placed and representations of the God/Goddess may be displayed.

Wicca and Witchcraft are two completely different things. To say so, would be like me saying that Muslim and Christian are one and the same, and we all know that its not.

One can be a Witch, without being a Wiccan, and one can be a Wiccan without practices Witchcraft. Futhermore, Wicca is a recognized religion, while Witchcraft itself is not considered a religion. I also know of wiccans who also identify as christians. There are as many explanations of Wicca as there are people who practice Wicca.

This may help...

Wicca was the Old English male form of witch, the female being wicce, their craft/art was wiccecraeft (witchcraft).

Ironic that most Wicca folk are generally anti-Germanic (unless they are Seax-Wica) when they use terms from a Germanic culture all the time. Though many claim they are from Gaelic which is not only impossible (as a Gaelic speaker cannot pronounce wicca) but is easily proven wrong.

Mind you many think the Maypole to be Celtic/Gaelic when it is actually Germanic and was brought to the British Isles by the early Heathen English.

Alright, I'm wiccan myself. What Wicca is all about is Nature. We believe there is a god and a Goddess(The Goddess is more known and believed in) She is the Goddess of Fertility, we believe that yes there is a supernatural life, and reancarnation and we do spells, and yes we believe in Magick(notice its spelled with a k to differ from Magic like hocus Pocus Magician) There is nothing bad about Wiccan, we don't worship Satan(That would be Satanism kids) actaully the Wiccan Rede is An' it harm none, Do what thou wilt. really that means, if it doesn't hurt someone else you can do what you want. Pretty much Wicca is a beautiful understanding religion that doesn't limit what you can do other than harming others. And its all about nature and being natural.
Hope that helped!!
Oh and P.S. for all the people who say that we worship satan and all that. That rumor was made by Christianity, and Wicca was alive and well before Christianity came along, so therefore there is no reason for you to believe that.
