Coven on online?

[Mesonnia]

Merry Meet,

How many people here study online only? How many people are part of a real life coven?

[Mesonnia]

Well to answer my own question I am part of an online and offline coven. I like the academic work online but love the practical work offline and the real life networking.

same for me I take part in both and have many pagan affi in all venues including the miltary lol

[Wicca Chick]

Nope, i'm not part of an online coven. I've jsut never felt the need to join one, i'm happy as a solitary. And i like to do what fits me, i dont want to change to fit the coven rules and practices.

I haven't studied online a lot...when i first began, i mainly learnt from books and ways that worked for me. I also watched videos and tv shows/specials on wicca/witchcraft/pagan practices. That's how i learnt mainly....and if i ever needed someone to answer my questions, i'd go online and ask.

So in short, no i'm not part of any covens.

[KaiAidan]

its bst to stick with what works best for you lol.

[Syri Whiteflame]

well, i'm kinda neither lol i study a little online, but not really, and i'm still on my own. i don't think there are any covens around here anyway ....
but yeah, one should always just do what's right for them.

i only study online..and i have books...few people know what i believe in and i have a few friends at school who consider or want to be Wiccan but i am unsure of their true reasons...the one i think doesn't take it seriously and so i won't teach her...i once sent her an email with some good websites..but she said she accidently deleted it and i dropped it then...the other has books and knows more than i do...but when i was starting out i asked her why she chose Wicca..what did it mean to her ect. and she said she didn't want to go to church because the people there talked to God and acted like they had orgasms during prayer or something... so i really am not sure if she is serious..and she gave me some weird definitions of Paganism...she said they do things differently and Wiccans have to do things another way...lol after asking her those questions...i began going into Wiccan chats

[Syri Whiteflame]

yeah it's hard to find anyone whoes into wicca for ... shall we say positive reasons. not to mention, when we're all keeping quite about our faith you can stand right next to six or seven witches and never know. that's how that one friend of mine is, quite about it. she tells people she's into pegan ideas if they ask, but i'm not sure if she's actually into it as a faith or just as a general concept, ya know? she doesn't go into details.
and a couple other friends are ... into that kind of thing but ... they aren't wiccan i have no idea what they are. similar but ... also i don't think they regard it as a faith. i don't really like to get into they're rituals or anything if i can help it, but i'm hoping now that i've found wicca i'm hoping i can share it with them and maybe they could find more meaning and guidance for their works, ya know? rather than just dabbling and .. well whatever they're doing *shrug* i've never asked for details.

[SilverDragonLily]

yea i wish i had some friends who lived close by me who were Wiccan so we could study together and do things like share stuff-like on this website-but i don't think that any of my friends who are interested in it are into it for good and positive reasons

[Syri Whiteflame]

that's a bummer. i know, i was getting kinda lonely for that reason; that's when i did a search on google and found this place. i thought, atleast then i might meet someone else of the faith, even if we never actually see eachother face to face.

nothing wrong with studing anyway you chose lol, I am all st to start a study group and a shrine in the the tradition that i follow hope it turns out ok

[TribalSpirit]

I do research thru the internet, books, people, all that good stuff. ;D I think a coven could be a great experience if it were loose on the rules and everyone was real close, I daydream about that sometimes hehe. Me and Full Moon have discussed getting a study group going or something.... that would be kinda like a coven but not lol. Maybe me and her will once H.School starts up for us... it would be great to know more Wiccans... I get kinda lonely.

[Vampyrequeen99]

if you did have a study group like you sed how would you get people into would u like make an ad in the school news thing or do sumthin else but that would be kewl to have a study group and if ya do can i go with ya and study lolz

[TribalSpirit]

lol well i guess we could just get it going by word of mouth.. lol I doubt the school newspaper would let us put an add in like that hehe.. but good idea worth a try!!! lol. if we ever get one started sure you can join lol so far it would only be us three!!! but hopefully there'll be more Wiccans at CHS or atleast ppl interested. oh, and if we did do that all three of us could post some info on it on our xanga sites!!!
