hmm...after studying more and getting to know more about wicca, I'm not sure what exactly i want..

I think i would have to study it, and maybe even practice some Neo-Paganism(that's were i do it without a coven and only the free floating knowledge correct?) before i got into the real wicca.

What could you suggest for me? I'm interested in learning more, and magic is something i still don't understand completely either.

For neo-paganism, eclectic witchcraft, etc... I would recommend Scott Cunningham's "Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner", "Elements of Ritual" by Deborah Lipp, Circle of Fire" by Sorita D'Este & David Rankine, "A Grimoire of Shadows" by Ed Fitch and Buckland's "Complete Book of Witchcraft".

Hello My name os DOminique, and I've dabbled in wicca before but have never ''kept with it'' so to say. I'm in colage now and I'm out from my parets influence for the first time in my life and I wanna make a real effort if foraging my own wicca belief.

I've seen here that Wicca is what you want it to be. Or how you wish to worship the godess/god or nature. I was wondering if music can be a major element in how I worship.

Wicca specifically, is not "what you want it to be".
But yes, music can be a great element in your worship, it's very enriching.

Sorry when I wrote "what you want it to be" i meant I've heard things about when you are solitary you have to find your own path. Ghaa... I still may be saying it wrong but all I know is that there is no one set path or way to worship like in most monotheistic religions.

That's more along the lines of Solitary Eclectic Paganism, then. :]

While there is some variation between covens and traditions, Traditional Wicca has core practices/beliefs that are essential in order for it to be properly practiced.

As Chaos said, Eclectic/Solitary Neo-Paganism is more of a do your own thing, but even then there are many Traditions that have specific requirements. Also, even when "creating" your own path - it still has to be done with understanding and respect for other cultures and religions. Many cultures/paths are "closed" and do not look kindly on others taking bits and pieces of them - especially when they used out of their original context.

Well, this may not refer to wiccas but is there any kind of tea that helps you cool down or relax a bit? I have tea with milk and cardamom or elaichi. It taste pretty sweet and just a smidge minty. Its quite soothing.

I find Chamomile tea to be very soothing. Usually, it'll put me to sleep if I drink it late at night.
