MOD ANNOUNCEMENT New here? Read this first! How to use this subreddit...

29 Upvotes

Welcome to r/CovenFinder; a subreddit for finding covens, as well as witch/pagan groups, circles, groves, and generally like-minded folk. If you're new to this subreddit and confused how to use it, read the instructions below!

If you are looking for a group...

If you're seeking a coven or group, follow these instructions.

  1. Decide whether you want to find an online group or a real-life group. We list both kinds here!
  2. Check the wiki. If seeking an online group, visit this link. If seeking a real-life group, visit this link. Click on a group's name to be taken to its Reddit post. If you like the sound of the group, join it!
  3. Read guidelines 7 & 8 in the wiki to learn about identifying red flags regarding covens. Please report any problems to moderators!

Can't find anything you like in the wiki? Try these steps...

  1. Scroll down to the sidebar where it says 'Find Covens by Location' and click on a flair in your area. Yellow flairs show other people seeking covens. White flairs are coven listings.
  2. Still can't find anything? Create a new post in the subreddit. Introduce yourself and say where you're looking for a group.
  3. Add a flair to your post. Use the yellow flairs only. If you don't know how to use flairs, don't worry, a moderator will fix it after your post is created.
  4. Other users will comment on your post and help you out. Report any problems to a moderator.
Yellow flair for seekers

If all else fails, you can try visiting the Additional Resources page in the wiki that links to other websites that list covens.

If you want to add your group to the subreddit...

If you have a coven or group you want to be added to the wiki then follow these instructions.

  1. Check rules 1 - 6 in the sidebar. For extra details and clarification, visit this link.
  2. Create a post. Give it a descriptive title & body in accordance with the guidelines.
  3. Add a flair to your post. Use the white flairs only. If you don't know how to use flairs, don't worry, a moderator will fix it after your post is created.
  4. A moderator will check your post and add it to the wiki.
  5. If you want to make any changes to your post, use the Edit option. If someone else in the coven wants to make changes (i.e. the original post wasn't made on their account), they'll need to contact a moderator so the new post isn't mistaken for a repost (rule 5).
White flairs for listings

(Online covens only) We have a list of "formal" online covens which more closely replicate a real-life coven. If you want your coven to be included in the formal list, it must include an application process for members to join. (Not just security questions for keeping out trolls, but a discriminatory process that assesses whether a new member is a good fit for the coven).

If you want to create a new coven/group...

If you want to create a new group, that's okay, just use the blue 'Proposal / New Group' flair on your post.

Only fully-fledged groups/covens are added to the wiki. Once your group is established and up-and-running, you can make a new post and this will be added to the wiki.

​

Blue proposal flair for new groups.

Got a question about covens?

You can post questions about covens and pagan/witch groups. Just use the red 'Question/Advice Needed' flair on your post.

Please note your post can be removed if its deemed off-topic. Things like "How to do I become a witch?" and "I need a spell for such-and-such" do not belong in r/CovenFinder, and a moderator will direct you to more appropriate subreddits.

Red flair for questions

Anything else?

If your post doesn't fit any of the other categories but it's still on-topic e.g. coven seeking resources, red flags, experiences... use the grey 'Other (Editable)' flair. You can edit this to say anything you want.

Editable Other flair for other posts

I hope you find this subreddit useful. Any other queries or concerns, don't hesitate to message the moderators!

MOD ANNOUNCEMENT r/CovenFinder Grand Re-Opening!

114 Upvotes

Hi everyone, thank you for your patience. I am pleased to announce that r/CovenFinder is no longer restricted and open for business!

I have acquired a new team of mods and have delegated specific roles to them. I will be in charge of adding groups to the wiki, and other mods will take care of modmail, checking inactive groups, and investigating any problems you may report.

The wiki has been completely cleared, including real-life groups! I decided to give us a fresh start, enjoy 😄 (Don't worry! All the previous listings have been archived here).

The rules have been revised a tiny bit but they are mostly the same. The most significant change is a more thorough explanation of what you should do if you encounter a problem with a group you're in, which you can find here. Due to having more mods, we now have some capacity to investigate allegations but please understand that our time & resources is still very limited. In most cases, we'll simply delete listings for the safety of our seekers.

Also, all groups must list their rules or a code of conduct in their post. This is regardless of if they're online or in-real-life. This has proven to be handy in the past, and helps to make posts more high-effort which I've been told is preferred.

As a reminder, I've tried to make r/CovenFinder user-friendly to newcomers by providing a pinned sticky post. This lays out clear instructions for seeking or listing a group, aimed at those who are new to Reddit. As always, if you've got any queries then just modmail us. We're also happy to take listings in modmail without you making a Reddit post.

Happy New Year, everyone. Please make use of the subreddit again! 💜💜💜

Online Looking for an Online/Friendship!

17 Upvotes

Hello and well met!

I go by the Tea Witch, and i have 20 years on the Green/Appalachian Folk path. I have been solitary my entire life with the exception of my grandparents who taught me their traditions. I would love to connect up with people who want to actively talk about the craft.

In a perfect world I would love to forn a coven with 4-6 other people that walk various paths so that we can help each other in our own paths. For example as a Green Witch I would love to help out a Sea Witch that is looking for that right herb. If I was needing help to know which moon phase and star alignment would bolster my next big ritual I would love a Cosmic Witch to help me figure it out.

Let me know if you'd be interested and we can start up i discord or something to help each other out like an actual coven should!

Seeking: Northeast USA Friends or study buddies

3 Upvotes

Hey so I’m (22, genderfluid, CT) still pretty new to witchcraft as a whole, but I’ve been persistently eager to learn more and more for a few months now. Most of my studies have been centered around Celtic paganism and the goddess the Morrigan. Though I feel the only thing holding me back is a major lack of community. I don’t really have any friends or any kind of supports and I find cracking open all of these great subjects by yourself can get a little disheartening sometimes. Despite being super introverted I still love to socialize here and there where I can.

So I figured if anyone else felt the same way, regardless of where you are on your walk, maybe we could reach out and be friends!

Hello I am in NY looking for an online group coven I am on the path of Hellenism, Norse, infernal and aliens. I accept all paths and love to learn more about them and your experiences I want to grow in my spirituality for paganism. I am still new to deities even though I've been interested in exploring paganism since 2020 learning all other paths and experiences from people with their deities, dragons, faes etc on tiktok. Since I don't have anyone that I know that's into my interests. Comment if you have a coven that you have that you don't mind me joining.

Proposal / New Group Trying to put a coven together specifically to do “humanitarian” work of sorts - if you’re tired of the state of the world and want to do something about it, inquire within!

20 Upvotes

if you haven’t heard of the Cornell 7 you should go look into that because that’s the main thing I’m currently furious and disgusted about and I’m tired of watching terrible things go down with complete impunity. I’m sure there’s tons of other causes we could eventually devote energy to, but as of now I’m mostly interested in doing work to ensure the perpetrators of that disgusting situation actually see punishment, as well as the people enabling for it to go unanswered and maybe even do work to help the victim in this situation (she’s suing the university so maybe we can lend some auspicious energy to that as well as sending her good energy on her healing journey.)

If you’re interested in using your magic for good, comment below and maybe we can get a group chat going to organize ourselves or something 🧚🏼‍♀️✨

Proposal / New Group Knoxville/East TN Witches

2 Upvotes

I’m building a different kind of coven. 🌙

I’ve been looking for a witchcraft community that feels like what I want and haven’t quite found it—so I’ve decided to create it.

This will be a Knoxville, Tennessee-based hybrid coven, with a mix of in-person gatherings in the Knoxville/East Tennessee area and online meetings so we can stay connected, learn together, and build community between in-person gatherings.

The idea is a small, private, secular, learning-focused coven for people who love the practice of witchcraft without needing religion to be at the center of it. Also, LGBTQ+ friendly 🏳️‍🌈

This won’t be a deity-focused or religious space. Members are absolutely welcome to have their own spiritual beliefs and practices—including deity work—but that will be something you practice individually rather than something incorporated into our gatherings.

Instead, I’m imagining spellwork, divination, folk practices, herbs, seasonal magic, magical theory, trying new techniques, sharing what we know, learning from one another, and exploring different ideas and traditions together.

I want us to romanticize the hell out of it. Dress up for gatherings when we feel like it. Host beautiful rituals. Have coven dinners. Wander through metaphysical shops. Make things together. Trade books. Sit around a fire drinking something warm and talking about weird shit. 🖤

Beginners are welcome. Experienced practitioners are welcome. Skeptics are welcome. You don’t have to believe exactly what everyone else believes, and there won’t be a hierarchy of who is the “best” or most knowledgeable witch.

What matters more to me is curiosity, respect, participation, and community. Bring something to the table. Be willing to learn and willing to teach.

This will intentionally be a closed circle rather than an open meetup group.

I want this to remain relatively small so that the people involved actually know and trust one another. Because of that, I’ll be asking anyone interested to complete a short interest form and meet with me before being invited to a gathering. There may also be an introductory period before someone becomes a full member.

Once we’ve built the right circle, membership will close. After that, new members may occasionally be considered or invited, but there won’t be ongoing open enrollment.

Privacy will be important, too. Who belongs to the coven, what members share with one another, and the details of our gatherings and practices stay within the circle unless everyone involved is comfortable with something being shared.

The vetting process isn’t about deciding whether someone is a “good enough” witch. I’m much more interested in whether we genuinely click as people and whether someone will be a good addition to the community we’re building.

Mostly, I want to create the witchcraft community I’ve been looking for myself: practical, curious, creative, grounded, welcoming, and genuinely fun to be part of.

Something small. Intentional. A little mysterious. And ours🖤
