Wicca has much internal diversity in its beliefs and practices. Theological views vary: Wiccans may embrace goddess monotheism, pantheism, or polytheistic perspectives, and they differ over whether deities literally exist or are symbolic or archetypal figures. Drawing deity names and images from pre-Christian Europe is a recurring feature. Afterlife beliefs similarly vary; many Wiccans believe in reincarnation or an afterlife realm called the Summerland. Most also accept the Wiccan Rede, an ethical code, and reject cursing as unethical.
