Most Wiccans are Pagans ( there are a few christain wiccans still tryin to get my head arround that one), but not all Pagans are wiccans

Wicca is a definded set of beliefs and practices. It involves the belief/ invoking/trust/love of both a God and a Godess in all that a wiccan does.

Paganism is a larger umbrella title for a lot of Belifes that include druidry, shamanism and a lot more.
