Circle of the Silver Lotus group meeting, Sundays at 3:00pm-5pm.
A local (Ashland, Oregon) coven has begun, in order to gather for regular rituals (Esbats and Sabbats) and play! We believe that magic is a learning process involving both spellcraft and enlightenment. We hope this coven allows each help on his or her own unique initiatory path. Initiation, in our view, is a process of self-discovery, and NOT a system of hierarchy or authority. We are all equal in doing the great work.For more info and locations visit their website:
