Shadows...Darkness...

I am reading this book, "Shadows of a Witch", by Shewolf Silver Shadows, and part of this excellent grimoire of all things wiccan and witchcraft deals with the darker aspects of witchcraft and shadow work. The "grey" area of enlightenment where we acknowledge both the light and the dark, the positive and negative within all things, including witches.

Often times <too many times imo>, modern day wicca is perceived as light or fluffy or all smiles and no frown and so on, you are aware of what i'm talking about, lol. For some this is true and if that is the path you wish to trod, then Do What Thou Will by all means. For some, we recognize the balance between forces, we are not perfect and we learn and teach on a daily basis from lessons learned in shadow work and the very bowels of shaman-ism itself.

There are many ways to begin shadow work, each way unique and personal, as all shadow work is. I strongly suggest a firm knowledge on the subject before beginning and an idea of which technique you will use.

This book is an all in one for sure and very large but worth it just for reference alone if anything...

Season's Change, So Why Not We....

There are some much needed and very good idea's for the coming Wiccan year witch we will discuss at our October Full Moon coven meeting at the covenstead on Oct. 11.

Mabon, being our "pagan thanksgiving", has provided a bounty of fresh and innovative idea's witch, if approved, I feel will add to our circles and training.

Change is not always a bad thing, even among the traditional witches, and NO, we ain't going fluffy...lol

Please all be in Prayer

One of our own has lost her father. We ask all to pray and keep her in your thoughts at this trying time. Casting our love your way Lady S....

Oft asked questions answered

We often get emails from other pagans out there in our area who are interested in our circle and maybe wishes to join one day. As we often find out, many are simply just new to the craft and don't really have the knowledge yet to understand certain key wiccan terms. Lots of questions are always welcome but I wonder if I can't just list a few of the oft asked questions and answer them here so prospective students can have a better understanding of how our coven works and runs. Here goes...

1) We are a traditional-minded coven (think Gardnerian Wicca). YES, we do work skyclad during closed circles. If this offends you, then you are looking at the wrong circle to join.

2) We do have open circles if the need arises, we have no problem with eclectics or any of the newer wiccan fads, we just won't change ours.

3) Although the circle has their own god/dess that we use, you are encouraged to have your own personal deities if you wish.

4) We try and follow the year and a day calender for students but we don't see a need to work off some calender date exclusively.

5) We do have a priest and a priestess. They do not think they are god nor do they act like they are. An initiated witch is the same as any other. We don't do ego's here.

6) We only do one degree and one initiation. I just don't feel I am qualified to tell another what "degree" some witch is. We feel that once the basics are covered and trust is established, initiate and allow the witch to grow on their own. You can't degree experience...

7) If you have body image issues or christian baggage hanging off ya, then you are not ready for traditional witchcraft, sorry...

8) Yes, we laugh a lot in circle, you should to.

9) There is absolutely nothing to worry about, perfect love and perfect trust...

10) Learn the Charge of the Goddess, its a wealth of knowledge...

LMAO

This crazy "witch" gave me nightmares for years when I was a kid....lol I still won't watch that movie...
