AboutLabyrinth Expertise I can answer all questions regarding natural spirituality and being a pagan. Being Wicca, Golden Dawn, Shamanist, whatever...is like saying you're Lutheran or Baptist. They are all forms of paganism and all based on natural spirituality. I am Romani (gypsy) and part Lakota (American Indian) and I was raised in natural spiritualism. I am a life path counselor for my group, a ritualist, and a spell weaver. Most of my work consists of guiding people on how to find spiritual peace in a very chaotic material world. Ask me anything.
Experience Romani and Lakota by blood and raised in the old traditions.

Question I am very sorry for any inconveniance. But i live in wyoming and have yet to see any opertunity to join a coven.
i have no idea wher to start or what to say but i was wondering how i can find out if there are any near by.
Answer Well, I live on an island in the middle of the Pacific or you could join me!
Covens do not go around advertising their whereabouts. If they are doing that, you should not join them.
Ritual to find sisters. Be open to meeting new people. Be in places they might be...new ages book stores, herb and candle shops, natural wooded areas like parks and arboretums.
Watch people when they shop...someone who has a basket full of candles, sage, a ceramic bowl, and parchment paper...hmmmm....
Ask the Goddess to guide you...it may take time but trust and faith is the key.
Now, a caution...there are some basic characteristics of a 'real' coven. One that truly follows the natural ways.
One, while there may be a "High" Priestess who acts as the groups general leader all the women in a coven are priestess or initiates to become priestess. Natural spirituality is democracy in its earliest form. Everyone has a say in what you do, everyone takes turns with design, participation, leading ritual, etc. The High Priestess is a leader and guide, NOT the boss. If this is the way the coven is run...leave it and keep looking.
Second, true wiccan spirituality is POSITIVE...be very doubtful about negative spell work...unless your teaming up to stop a rapist or something. If they are busy hexing and cursing people...get out.
If you ever feel uncomfortable, you are not in the right group...some like to be naked...that is not a requirement. Anything that makes you uncomfortable, you do not need to do.
So okay...good luck...I hope you find some circle sisters.
