Some Celtic Wiccans claim that the tradition is an ancient practice, which originated in the British Isles and has not been attributed to one teacher.

Other Celtic Wiccans, and most mainstream scholarship, views Celtic Wicca as derived from Wicca combined with elements from attempted reconstructions of ancient Celtic religions. Wicca as established by Gardner contained Celtic elements, along with elements from many other cultures. Celtic Wicca can be seen as emphasising these Celtic elements, and adding additional Celtic elements, and sometimes removing or de-emphasising the non-Celtic elements.

Celtic Wiccans focuses on solar and lunar changes, the balance of harmony between the God(s) and Goddess(es), and the attunement with nature. Followers practice meditation, divination, and magickal herbalism. Emphasis is placed on the Celtic pantheon, history, traditions, food, and music.
