Answer by  asrai (13)

Celtic and Wicca are two seperate ideologies. Celtics refer to people who spoke or descendants of Celtic speakers. They celebrated the four "greater" sabbats- Samhain, Imbolc, Beltane and Lughnasadh. Wiccans celebrate 8 sabbats the four greater and four "lesser"- Yule, Ostara, MidSummer, and Mabon. No one culture in the past celebrated all eight sabbats as modern Wiccans do.
