Snow White, the beloved princess from the classic fairy tale, was known for her beauty and kind heart. However, one aspect of her story that is often overlooked is the fact that she had a wicked stepmother, the Evil Queen. This queen had an obsession with her own beauty and would stop at nothing to be the fairest in the land. To achieve her goal, the Evil Queen employed the services of a witch. This witch was no ordinary witch but a powerful sorceress with the ability to transform herself into various forms. She had a magical mirror that could tell her who the fairest of them all was, and when it no longer proclaimed her as such, she grew envious.
Traditionally, the number of witches in a coven is supposed to be 13: 12 followers plus a leader.
As of the 1980s, most witches had abandoned the unbroken tradition the- ory in favour of the view that modern Witchcraft reflects a reconstruction of old beliefs and practices. In most traditions, only high priests and high priestesses may initiate others into the craft; men initiate women and women initiate men see initiation.
She had a magical mirror that could tell her who the fairest of them all was, and when it no longer proclaimed her as such, she grew envious. The witch concocted a plan to get rid of Snow White once and for all. She disguised herself as an old peddler woman and offered Snow White a poisoned apple.
Ivy the Witch!
You are walking along at your local Pagan Pride day, and you come across a few covens advertising their existence and telling you all about who they are, and what they believe. You see one that catches your eye and you walk up and read one of the pamphlets. A tall woman with flame red hair steps up to you and stretches out her hand and says “My name is Lady Coral, I can answer any questions you may have”
You speak for a moment, hear their spiel about their coven life, rituals, volunteer work and such. Thank them for the information and move on to the next one.
You are now greeted by a man who calls himself “Thane Anton of the Inner Court” You’re a bit confused as this guy is no older than 30, why does he have such a fancy name? You speak a bit, and head on over to the main ritual for the festival.
All the while, you were asking yourself one big question. “What the heck kinda names are those?”
Within a traditional Wiccan Coven, Titles are given to practitioners as a mark of their rank and role within the coven structure. It sort of describes their job and responsibilities within the circle. Not all covens participate in this tradition, but I will give a rundown of some of the titles I have heard in my journey, and give a brief description of what they entail.
Before I get to that however, I want to remind everyone that just because you are initiated and ranked within your coven, that does not give you power or rank over the members of another coven. (Unless that coven is a direct branch of your specific tradition, then other rules apply)
Most covens operate on a Hierarchy. This means that certain people will have more power, say or responsibility within the coven, while others just have to move with the group.
This is something I see in a lot of Covens. If everyone is in charge, often times the coven falls apart, too many cooks in the kitchen as it were. The most successful covens I have seen and been a part of have been Democratic Hierarchies. Everyone gets a vote, but the people at the top get final say.
So, on to the titles I will start at the top of the ladder and work my way down to the brand new, just joined the group people.
Unaware of the witch's true identity, Snow White took a bite of the apple, instantly falling into a deep sleep that could only be broken by true love's kiss. The witch's plan succeeded, and Snow White lay in a glass coffin, seemingly lifeless. However, her beauty remained unchanged, and she appeared as if she were merely sleeping. Her loyal friends, the seven dwarfs, mourned her loss and placed her in the forest for all to see. Fortunately, the story of Snow White does not end there. A prince, enchanted by Snow White's beauty, came across her glass coffin and was captivated by her. He kissed her, and she awoke from her slumber, finally free from the witch's curse. In this tale, the witch plays a significant role in the downfall of Snow White. Her envy and desire for beauty drove her to use her magical powers for evil purposes. However, it is Snow White's resilience and the power of love that ultimately triumphs over the evil intentions of the witch. Snow White reminds us that appearances can be deceiving and that true beauty lies within. It also teaches us the importance of kindness and love, as they hold the power to overcome even the most wicked of witches..
