Riassunto

The Real Witches’ Coven is the only book available that tells you everything you need to know about how to start and run a coven (a meeting of witches). If you’ve read a general introduction to the Craft and immediately want to start a coven now, then read this book first.

The Real Witches’ Coven is the perfect guide for those who want to set up a coven and find that they need support with running and organizing it after the first six to twelve months. This book is the perfect follow-up and next step to The Real Witches’ Handbook.

The Real Witches’ Coven takes the would-be High Priestess or High Priest through the choosing of coven members, the setting and enforcing of rules and regulations, the initiations and other rituals. As well as suggesting what rituals to hold (why and when), Kate West also advises on possible pitfalls and generally how to organize (and control) a coven, illustrated with her own real life anecdotes.

Each chapter will conclude with a piece called 'The High Priestess speaks' (or similar), which will give practical examples of the subjects discussed in the text.

Dalla quarta di copertina

For many Witches the Coven functions like a family should, helping and supporting one another. They gather to honour the Goddess and the God, to celebrate the cycle of the seasons through the Sabbats, to mark the phases of the Moon and work magic at the Esbats.

Whether you already run a Coven or are thinking of doing so, whether you are a member of a Coven, seek to join one, or just wonder what they do, 'The Real Witches Coven' is the book for you. Here you will find information, and real-life examples to help you:
· Become an effective Coven leader
· Find and select new members
· Achieve personal and group development
· Find a Coven and become an effective Coven member
· Organise Rites and Rituals
· Work powerful and effective magic

Being a 'real' Witch means being a part of the world, not apart from it. Kate West shows you how to share the joys of the Craft while avoiding the problems that come from trying to co-ordinate any group of free-thinking individuals. This guide is for those who want to smooth the path to forming a Coven and still have time for 'real life'.
