The word "Stregheria" in Italian means "Witchcraft". Also, in Italian there are a few ways to say the word "Witch", they are: "Strega" which means a female Witch and "Stregone" means a male Witch.

All that the Strega's do with their Magick is drawn from the Spirit Flame. Aradia,daughter of the goddess Diana who came to Earth to teach witchcraft to her worshipers,taught that the fire came from Divinity, a symbol of the Old Ways teaching and considered it the most powerful tool they could possess. The Spirit Flame symbol is called the "Soul" of the Old Religion.

This symbol comes from an old drawing and can be found in Raven Grimassi's Book "Ways of the Strega". A special thanks to Raven who is generous enough to allow me to use this symbol in my designs.
