I have been a hedge witch for several years and tho' I didn't follow any books or set rituals (I believe that is called choas) I was quite happy but wondered if I was missing out on something. My friend was also a hedge witch , but until recently we didn't join up, then her neices wanted to be a group. We are now a covern of 4 and meet once a week. I don't feel it is getting me anywhere, there is a small conflict of , how do I describe it, beliefs/interests/ambitions??? I am more odin and nature based, my friend shamanic/herbal, the girls are tarot/wealth/love/quick fix !!! I do like the get togethers but although it is a covern I don't feel a large part of me is contributing but holding back to carry on , on the other 6 days, being a 'hedge'. What do you reckon to this. Do you think I can do both sucessfully or do you think I should just concentrate on either hedge/covern. I enjoy being on my own but feel some rituals or spells need an extra body or 2 for more intense power. How has anyone out there coped with this problem. BB

There is more motivation as a group, but perhaps we all have to give something up to be a part. The solution for me has been to join in with others on some occasions and be a wandering spirit at other times. As a male I tend to be outnumbered somewhat, and although I do enjoy female company, it can become a bit fem centred at times.I love to meet up with new groups, and new witches, and its nice to see them making their own discoveries and selecting their own path. Many at first think I will come in and cast a spell to make them witches, but soon discover they already are and I am just a fellow traveller along the path.

It sounds like you are all looking for a different purpose from your meetings, maybe you would feel like you are working together if you each took it in turns to suggest a goal for the meeting? I have friends who I can discuss my path with but each person's experiences and wishes are so different. We have never discussed becoming a coven because the different methods/traditions differ so widely the time would be spent discussing hows, whens and wheres! But it is nice to meet up on occasion just to wish each other well, hear how anothers journey is going, pass on something you think may be of interest, blessings to you and your coven,
