Chelsea- 1*

On April 7, we initiated Chelsea into the Twilight Wicca Tradition and the Coven of the Twilight Moon. I know we posted this on our FB page, but wanted to make sure, it got here, in the 'official' blog, as well. We are so excited to have her as part of our inner court. Blessed be!

Update March 2012

I haven't posted in more than a month. Yikes! Here's a bit of an update on what's going on with us!

Ostara was lovely... we planted our spiritual and physical seeds for the year. Aislin's priestess training is beginning to come to a close. She is centering her first open ritual at Litha. We will celebrate our hiving at Lughnasadh. We are getting ready to initiate a new sister, and will most likely take on a new dedicant class in July or August. We've got lots going on, though between now and Lughnasadh.

As always, our aspirant petition is on this site, in the links at right, as well as on our Facebook page- http://www.facebook.com/twilightmooncoven

February Esbat 2012

Our February esbat was led by Aislin, and we centered around the theme of self-love. With V-day coming up, it seems as though everyone is focused on love, but many times we like to focus on self-love, one of the keys to personal growth. Blessed be!

Imbolc 2012

Our Imbolc celebration was last night. Between Imbolc being one of my favorite sabbats, and my resolution to make sabbats feel more like holidays, I had a lot of fun preparing for yesterday evening's festivities! I made each sister a small bottle of holy water to take with them- as Imbolc is a time of spring cleaning and cleansing, a bit of holy water can't hurt. We had a healing shrine set up, as Brighid is a goddess of healing, as well as creativity and inspiration. Our ritual altar featured our creative offerings, a small brick hearth, a brighid's cross, and white lilies in a red vase. It was a beautiful ritual, and we were lucky to have three of our Shadow Sisters join us, for a lovely circle of seven. Like our page on facebook, for seasonal crafts, as well as updates that come more often than this blog- our blog feeds through to our facebook page.

BIG change for the Coven of the Twilight Moon

Coven of the Twilight Moon, a coven crafting the Twilight Wicca tradition, will be splitting into two covens, effective Lughnasadh 2012. This is an organic change, as part of the Coven of the Twilight Moon is based in Orange County, and the other part in North Hollywood. Both covens will circle together at least four times and will meet together at least four times in 2013.

This change alleviates the burden of unpredictable traffic, while enabling those of the Twilight Wicca tradition to continue to honor the gods, grow a close-knit community of practicing women witches, and continue on the journey of personal spiritual growth. Those in our Shadow Sister congregational group will be split as well, assigned to the coven that is geographically closest to their home.

The North Hollywood coven, tentatively named Coven of Midnight's Flame, will be led by Aislin Lumina, the current maiden of the Coven of the Twilight Moon. This coven will include sisters Beth, and Rayne, and any dedicants and Shadow Sisters living west of the 710.

The coven in Orange County, tentatively named Twilight Spiral, will be led by Lady Ivy Artemisia, the high priestess of Coven of the Twilight Moon. This coven will include Shadow Sisters and any dedicants east of the 710.

Shadow sisters and aspirants that live in the 710 corridor, along with Pasadena and Long Beach areas, will be encouraged to check out both covens and may choose whether to join Coven of Midnight's Flame or Twilight Spiral Coven at the discretion of the high priestesses.

Two open rituals will still be offered each year, one summer ritual, and Yule. If you have any questions about this, please contact Ivy Artemisia at barefootwitch@gmail.com. For more information about the Twilight Wicca tradition, please visit twilightwicca.com.
