The Enchanted Moon Ordination Pathway

For those who feel called to take their studies further, the Enchanted Moon Academy also provides a structured Ordination Pathway for students who wish to explore deeper training within an established Craft tradition without the need to join a real life coven.

But what exactly is ordination?

In many witchcraft and Pagan traditions, ordination is a formal process of spiritual education, practical training and personal development through which a person prepares to take on greater responsibilities within their tradition and community. 

It is not simply about learning about Witchcraft — it is about developing the knowledge, skills, experience and understanding in a structured and supportive way.

It is about becoming part of the Priesthood - a wider magickal family and supportive spiritual community.

We offer an inclusive and eclectic alternative to other traditions.

Our Ordination Pathway is rooted in the Enchanted Moon Tradition, but it is designed to be welcoming to Witches from a wide variety of backgrounds and traditions. You do not need to have followed a particular form of Witchcraft beforehand, nor do you need to identify as Wiccan.

We are an inclusive and global tradition open to all - men, women, non-binary, gender fluid and humans of all colours, races, sexual preferences and backgrounds, there is room for everyone to explore with us.

The ordination training provides structured, supportive and measurable growth.

Through structured study, practical experience, spiritual development and guidance from experienced teachers, members can gradually advance through a series of Paths (grades or degrees), in their own time and at their own pace. Unlike many traditions, our Ordination Path has been carefully designed to support both solitary practitioners and members of our in-person covens. It offers a modern, progressive approach to priesthood training while remaining rooted in the values, ethics, and practices of the Craft.

The journey follows four progressive Paths:

🌿 Path of Earth – Foundations, grounding and dedication.

🔥 Path of Fire – Initiation, transformation and developing the practical skills of the Craft.

🌬️ Path of Air – Expanding your knowledge and practice through selection of a chosen Mastery Path run by one of our houses.

🌊 Path of Water – Leadership, stewardship and supporting the growth of others. For those seeking to start up and run their own coven or similar circle.

This is not your average degree system, nor is it intended to replace your own beliefs or spiritual identity.

Instead, it provides a supportive framework for those who wish to grow within an established modern eclectic Craft tradition while remaining true to their own unique beliefs and prefernces.

Whether your goal is simply to deepen your own practice or one day help serve the wider community, the Ordination Path offers a meaningful journey of personal growth, discipline and transformation.

If you've ever felt that gentle nudge to go beyond simply learning about the Craft and begin truly living it, perhaps this is the path you've been looking for.

Real Life Covens

The Enchanted Moon Craft Tradition comprises of a number of real life covens based in the south of England. Occasionally, space become available to take on new Outer Circle members. Outer Circle members begin a probationary training period that last for a minimum of a year. After this period they are assessed for suitability for undergoing Initiation and becoming part of the Inner Circle (i.e a full coven member), and part of our official priesthood. 

We will open applications around October/November, when and if space to take on new trainees become available. 

Please ensure that you only apply via our official channels and affiliated groups. If in doubt of the authenticity of a coven or person claiming to be part of the Enchanted Moon Craft line, please ask Elder High Priestess Wort Moon at the following email for authentication: covenofthenightmares@gmail.com

Wort Moon is the founder of our Craft line and holds a record of all our official members and covens.
