NORTHERN NEW JERSEY

SONGS OF THE WOODE

CITY: New York City/Northern New Jersey

TRADITION OR SPIRITUAL PATH: Celtic Traditionalist Gwyddonaid

CONTACT NAME: Asherah Woode

EMAIL: jaeperry93@gmail.com

UPDATED: 6/17/2021

 

The Celtic Traditionalist Gwyddonaid (CTG) is a tradition which stems from the hereditary family lore of Lady Gwen (Gwynne) Thompson (1928-1986) and subsequent research and writings of Edmund M. Buczynski (Lord Gwydion) (1947-1989), founder of the Brooklyn Heights Coven with Lady Vivienne. The Celtic Traditionalist Gwyddonaid is based upon two textual sources. The first source is the Book of Shadows and other teachings of the New York Welsh Traditionalist Gwyddonaid (NYWTG or "Welsh Tradition"), as founded by Lord Gwydion. The second source is the Book of Shadows and other teachings of the Welsh Rite Traditionalist Gwyddonaid (WRTG), as founded by Lord Gwion.

Our coven is about self-transformation through a relationship with nature following the cycles of the Moon and honoring the Goddess and God at the Sabbats. We celebrate our connection to the Gods and nature with teachings of the Celtic Traditional Gwyddonaid and lessons of nature lore. Most of all initiates become part of our coven family. Practicing in an environment of love and trust is very important to us. Our mythological pantheon is derived from Celtic and Welsh folklore.

Songs of the Woode Coven has an active Outer Court which is open to sincere seekers. We do not discriminate based on race, sexual orientation, or gender identity. You must be at least 18 years of age to apply.

We are a well-established coven, having announced our formation in early Fall 1997. In 2000, HOC became a Church with all rights and privileges afforded by the government. Our open circles are open to all respectful seekers. They are “teaching circles,” where we explain the magic we are creating.

Besides open circles, workshops and invitation-only sabbats, coven members meet regularly for social and spiritual reasons. We are working on empowerment, healing, and growth, not on maintaining hierarchies.

WITCHDOM is not a coven. Rather, it is an organization composed of Witches who share the common interest of making our World a better place, one issue at a time, by using our magick wisely. We gather to discuss what worldly issues are most pressing, and then we make plans to cast so that we may bring forth a solution. Witches are powerful. We can bring forth change. Let us come together to help mankind. Together, we can make a difference. Together, we can be "a force such as the world has never known." Let us be that force!

PISCATAWAY

 
PORTAL OF THE PORCUPINE

CITY: Piscataway

TRADITION OR SPIRITUAL PATH: Eclectic Pagan/Serendipitous Wiccan

CONTACT NAME: Sue Wolfsong

EMAIL: weirdsue@yahoo.com

FACEBOOK: Sue Wolfsong

 

We're a very loosely formed group without an official membership roster. More of a covenstead than an actual coven, the "Portal of the Porcupine" hosts open sabbats throughout the year and circles on request when the 'moon is full and sincere practitioners desire to gather for magikal & celebratory purposes'. The space is also available on request for small groups to join in for rituals.

Family friendly and embracing all ages and experiences, our events are comfortable for seekers from all paths. They are spiritual, but undogmatic & open to free-thinking people--generally informal where participants may have input during rituals if they're so moved.

Because this place is also a residence, the exact location of our gatherings is not posted on public lists. If you have any questions or would like to be included in our rituals and celebrations, contact me at weirdsue@yahoo.com and you'll be put on the email list.

SAYREVILLE

LADYBIRD COVEN

CITY: Sayreville

TRADITION OR SPIRITUAL PATH: Wicca / Ceremonial Magic

CONTACT NAME: Luna

EMAIL: freyjafugle@gmail.com

UPDATED: 8/19/2024

We’re a small coven that started in 2014, but we took a hiatus from 2019 until now due to life becoming too hectic with kids/work. We still remain in contact with some of our students from long ago, and we’re ready to accept a few more students at this time. The core of our system is based on Kabbalistic theology and ceremonial magical practices. Our techniques rely heavily on the use of grimoires from the 17th century, especially those used by Dr. Thomas Rudd’s group of angel magicians, with some adaptations. We also have extensive knowledge and multiple years of practice in Wicca, particularly with the Norse pantheon, so we can offer training in the two disciplines of Wicca and Ceremonial magic.

If you are interested in joining us to learn magic, you can expect a deep and thorough study of the magical arts that will definitely take more than a year and a day to master. The curriculum includes an introduction to magic in general, magical training exercises, divinatory techniques, basic astrology (focusing on electional astrology), Kabbalah (both traditional and the western Qabalah), magical correspondences, elemental magic, planetary / talismanic magic, evocatory magic, and exorcistic techniques. Along the way, we’ll explore some useful concepts and practices developed by modern magical orders, such as the Golden Dawn and the Martinist orders, but this is not the focus of our group. Moreover, we do not ascribe to Aleister Crowley’s interpretations of magic theory nor his practices or ideas. You should also know that our rituals involve mostly Angel Magic. We do not work with demons or chthonic entities, and if this is your interest, we suggest we contact other groups.

If you would like more information, write us an email! We're very friendly and approachable, and we would love to hear from you. Just please make sure you have read and understood our disclaimer below.

**Disclaimer: Our coven works skyclad for all evocations and major ceremonies. If you don't know what this means, please look it up before writing and make sure that you are ok with it. Everyone must be over 21 years old and very open-minded. This coven abides by a time-honored occult maxim: "To Know, to Will, to Dare, and to Be Silent”, and all students are expected to follow it. Because we do work magic, there may be supernatural phenomena in our ceremonies at times. You must be mature and mentally stable enough to handle this. You can be expected to be challenged in more ways than one, possibly beyond your comfort zone, but that is the way to learn and grow!
