Eclectic Wicca is a type of Wicca characterized by the use of a wide variety of sources for inspiration, and the quest to build a unique, personal religious path. The basic structure is generally Wiccan, but may vary widely among individual groups and practitioners.
Eclectic Wiccans generally feel it is acceptable or even desirable to change or invent ritual in any way that they deem appropriate, and to incorporate deities and traditions from any and all cultures that appeal to them. Since they are not "constrained" by "Wiccan church" or any other traditional religious practices, there is little interest in formal religious training or initiation into a particular group or lineage.
