hi guys and hello to you rachel

sounds great about the elder witches. how do you get to be taught by a high priestess. there are so many charlatans in the spiritual world i want to follow the guidance of someone with credentials. what do i need to look for? have they been apprentices and had their knowledge passed down over years by other higher priestesses?

have to be careful you aren't getting involved with people who lead you down the garden path....so many cultish figures around new age circles i discovered when at uni.

Sweetsong that�s a hard question to answer.
It all depends on what you want from your Pagan path.

If a Coven is the way to go for you, then you will be taught by the other Coven members.
I�m guessing you would hold some kind of ritual that will make you a member, if perhaps a junior member and as you learn and progress more then you move up in the ranks.

You can find many workshops run by women on Paganism or the female element of it, lots in the Glastonbury area but they charge lots of money for the privilege.

Personally I would say that you need no one but yourself and your openness to receive the love of the Gods.

For me that�s in the wind and rain, the sun, the Earth, the moon, the animals, plants, my feelings, and my belief.
I see the signs of my Goddess everywhere, I also feel her walking beside me in all I do.

Maybe you should take yourself out of doors have a good walk in the open country and see how you feel.
Then take things from there.
