So....I think this is really going to be a thing.
And this might be me diving head first into doing this (as I've stated before), and understand I'm just one human and this is going to involve a LOT of learning on my part, cause Hi Hello I'm an anxious person, but....I really think this needs to happen.
So here's where I'm coming from, I've been doing this witchcraft thing since I was like...8 years old. I have a small human who has no interest at this time in witchcraft (oh my sweet human let me unload all this knowledge Dx lol) and my brain sponge just needs to make more room, and the only way I can do that is by passing this information on to those who (actually) want to learn it (and not the tiny human who humours me when I go on a rant about the seasons or inner world work, etc).
But how does this work while I still identify as a Satanist, and am apart of A Satanic Church? Well...I'm not sure yet. Since starting down this path of Witchcraft, I've kind of always wanted to host or be apart of a Coven, there is a sense of community that I think solitary Witchcraft lacks and I've been a solitary Witch for most of my practice. And that's kind of the thing Witchcraft has always just been primarily a practice for me. It wasn't until the last 5, 6 years did I discover a style of Theistic Satanism as a religous practice that I jived with did I start doing witchcraft in conjuction with Satanism.
Does this mean that everyone who joins this coven will also need to be a Satanist? No. I don't fly that way. If you want to join this Coven cool amazing great, you don't have to hold my personal religous system.
Will Satanism influence some of the workings that I run? Maybe but also probably not. I have personal working relationships with my deities and demons and I don't think I want to share that aspect, at least not at this point in time. I do have a style of practice outside of Satanism (that works well with my tradition of Satanism) that I am more likely to work with within the Coven than Satanism it's self.
I've been a Witch longer than I've been a Satanist, and I have more knowledge about Witchcraft than I do about Satanism (at this current moment "Beginner Satanist" is still a vaild label for me). So starting this adventure with hosting and "leading" a Coven, I'm mostly going to stick with foundational ideas of witchcraft and if down the road members want to ask about Satanism and what my branch of Satanism is and looks like than at that point I might be comfortable and capable of educating about it. But until then I'm going to stick with my comfort zone and base the Coven with Witchcraft and keep Satanism for myself.
So...wanna join a Coven (that's absolutly not a cult ... ((I'm still going to make that joke and you can't stop me))...)?
