Image Baldung hexen ca1514.jpg thumb right 200px 16th century depiction of nude witches. by Hans Baldung Grien In Wicca and Paganism Neo paganism, the term skyclad is used to refer to ritual nudity . Some Wiccan groups, or Traditions, perform some or all of their rituals skyclad. Whilst nudity and the practice of witchcraft have long been associated in the visual arts, this contemporary ritual nudity is typically attributed to either the influence of Gerald Gardner or to a passage from Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches , and as such is mainly attributed to the Gardnerian Wicca Gardnerian and Aradian coven s. Gardner s Witchcraft Today was published in 1954. The book claimed to report on the contemporary practice of Pagan religious witchcraft in England, which had supposedly survived as an underground religion for centuries. Ritual nudity was included as a regular part of Wiccan practice, and remains associated with Gardnerian Wicca . The Charge of the Goddess , a part of Gardnerian ritual liturgy, instructs Wiccans to practice ritual in the nude. Gardner spent several years in India, and may have picked up the concept from the Digambara Jainism Jains , a religious sect in which the monks may not wear clothing. ref cite web title Llewellyn Encyclopedia and Glossary Skyclad url http www.llewellynencyclopedia.com term Skyclad accessdate 18 March 2007 ref The origins of this instruction have been traced to Charles Godfrey Leland s 1899 book, Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches . ref name Hutton225 cite book first Ronald last Hutton authorlink Ronald Hutton title Triumph of the Moon publisher Oxford University Press year 2000 isbn 0 500 27242 5 pages 225 ref ref name Ruickbie113 The following speech by Aradia goddess Aradia appears at the end of the book s first chapter blockquote poem And as the sign that ye are truly free, Ye shall be naked in your rites, both men And women also this shall last until The last of your oppressors shall be dead ref Leland, wikisource ... more details
