We are currently accepting petitions for Outer Court membership. We accept new members eat different times in the year, though you may turn your petition in anytime.
To join us, you must first meet the following requirements:
1) You must be 18 years of age and older.
2) You must be free of chemical illegal drugs.
3) You must have at least a basic knowledge of Wicca and Witchcraft.
4) You must be of an open mind, kind hearted and unjudgmental.
5) You must be within driving distance of the La Mirada and Silver Lake area.
6) You must be able to attend at least 85% of all meetings, classes, events, rituals and workshops.
7) You must have internet access, for most correspondance will be online.
8) If you have a mental illness, you need to be on medication
Joining a coven is a big step and a commitment, and should not be taken lightly. Take some time to think about it, and make sure that it is the path you wish to take.
Here is an overview of our membership process:
1) Download the petition, fill it out and send on to barefoot witch @ gmail dot com (eliminate the spaces and the dot should be an actual dot, and all that). Its in Microsoft Word, if you need it in a txt file, email Ivy, and she'll send it to you.
2) If we believe that you may make a good match with our coven, the High Priestess will ask you some more questions and will schedule a meeting(s) with you. You may also meet with other members of the coven, or active dedicants. An alternative may be a meet and greet, which may include other prospective dedicants.
3) If we seem to fit eachother well, you will be invited to an open ritual and/or a social event.
4) If everything still seems to fit well, you will be invited to dedicate to the coven at a dedication ritual. While one does dedicate onesself to the coven, the dedicant is free to leave at any time, if she feels like it is not a good fit, after all. The members of the Inner Court also is free to ask the dedicant to leave the Outer Court, if they do not feel like a good fit will be possible. Dedication does NOT guarantee initation.
5) After all classes are completed, Outer Court members may be invited to join the Inner Court, and if so, will be initiated into the coven at next open esbat, or sabbat.
Keep in mind: Outer Court members will be expected to come to open esbats, all sabbats, Dedicant Classes, all coven meetings, and most 'official' social functions. Outer Court members will not come to inner court meetings, working rituals, closed esbats and some inner court trainings. Outer Court members will be invited to most camping trips and festivals. Outer Court members are expected to contribute dues (Sliding scale $5-20 a month). Dedication does NOT guarantee initation. It's more like a trial period, to make sure it will work out. We enjoy our family dynamic, and while we are open to embracing new family members, we want to make sure that they are OUR family.
