Coven Membership consists of all individuals that have formally joined the Temple under the premise that they attend as many Esbat and Sabbats as they can. These members are entitled to attend all socials, rituals (except Initiations) courses and workshops offered. Members may choose to register for membership within the Correllian Tradition with whom our Coven holds its Temple Charter.
Levels of Tradition Membership
Temple members that register with the Tradition are considered Outer Court members of the Tradition.
Dedicants are students who have dedicated a year and a day of study in order to apply for First degree Priest/ess status. If after this period, a dedicant does not qualify to apply for Clergy or the Clergy application is declined, the student can continue on to study the next degree but will revert back to Outer Court member status within the Temple and Tradition.
Clergy members are Temple members who hold First, Second or Third degree Priest/ess status within the Temple and Correllian Tradition.
High Priesthood are Temple members who hold Third Degree Priest/ess status within the Temple and Correllian Tradition.
