Stag and Oak Grove will be the outer court teaching circle for Coven Regina Caelorum. For the moment there are no in person meetings, but once the pandemic has mostly passed meetings will be through Stag and Oak Grove and the outer court rites. Once the Coven has been established, it will operate mainly through the Long Island/Olwen Line of the Gardnerian Tradition of Witchcraft, but degrees and training are also available for Farrar Line Alexandrian, the New York Wica Tradition, and New York Welsh. The Minoan Brotherhood is potentially available for males through Temenos ta Theia, however there are two other active Groves in the area to which a person might be referred.

We are a teaching coven with an emphasis on training Clergy. We offer a degree-based program for beginners as well as those with experience looking for formal training. We place a strong emphasis on ethical practice and tolerance for other beliefs as well as personal choice and personal responsibility. Our goal is to be a spiritual family, as well as a place to learn, grow, and challenge ourselves. We honor and encourage diversity among our members.

 

As a group, we expect openness, trust, and integrity from our members. We desire commitment of time and reliability. We also expect you to have a good life/work balance and be willing to do the deep, personal work that is required for true growth.

 

We honor both the Goddess and God, as well as Androgyny and non-gendered aspects of deity. We are LGBTQ+ inclusive and expect anyone who joins us to be LGBTQ+ friendly as well. CHW is an adult coven; our members must be at least 21 years old.

 

We use a private interview process to meet with you and get to know you, and to let you get to know us. If we think you will be compatible with us, and you think you would like to work with us, there is then a "trial" period of candidacy lasting a minimum of one year and one day. We look forward to hearing from you. Blessed Be!

Hail to you Seeker/s! Bone and Branch is a coven which lives and practices as a version of Contemporary Traditional Witchcraft. Our teachings largely come from our shared teacher, Steven Posch.

Our traditions are strongly based in the land which we are nourished on, and steadily we keep one foot in the past, one in the future straddling the hedge of the modern. We recommend, before contacting us, you head over to Steven's Blog. https://witchesandpagans.com/pagan-culture-blogs/paganistan.html

 

Once there, we recommend you spend some time reading his varied entries. If what you read interests you. Then please do contact us, at the email above. May the Horned Rise to meet you.
