====Wicca====
The Wiccan ''[[Charge of the Goddess]]'', one of the most famous texts in [[Neopaganism]], states in the words of the Goddess, "all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals".<ref>{{cite web |title=Alternative Sexuality |publisher=Tangled Moon Coven |date=8 August 2006 |url=http://www.tangledmoon.org/sexuality.htm |access-date=30 December 2006 }}</ref> In traditional forms of Wicca, such as [[Gardnerian Wicca|Gardnerian]] and [[Alexandrian Wicca]], magic is often performed between a man and a woman, and the "[[Great Rite]]" is a sex ritual performed between a Priest and Priestess representing the God and Goddess;<ref>{{cite journal |title=Sex, Wicca and the Great Rite |journal=The Blade & Chalice |date=1993 |issue=3 }}</ref> however, this is not generally seen as excluding homosexuals or magic between same-sex couples. While many groups still insist that initiations be conferred from man to woman or woman to man, Wicca has become a very diverse religion with varying views. As there is no central governing body nor a core authoritative text, individual covens and practitioners often establish their own guidelines. Many self-initiates are LGBTQ+ and form queer-centered covens and traditions.
