If you are seriously interested in joining us, as a Member of the Research Group either as a single person only chatting on the Group Chat Page at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Coven-of-Cythrawl

Or perhaps in joining a physical group, then read through this section and think it over and contact us for more information.  We will answer all your questions relating to magick, druidism, witchcraft and divination and if we don't know the answers, our seniors in Britain will.   You may find more information from the Questions & Answers Page - (Q & A) -  to help in matters not discussed here.

        Coven of Cythrawl     

Should you wish to be considered for membership into the Coven of Cythrawl Research Group as a full working member, you will have to be residing in an area whereby you will be able to participate in rites and ritual in Singapore as much as is possible.  If you are a resident of Singapore or Malaysia, you will have no problems in attending regular meetings.  You would be expected to be interviewed at length and if found acceptable, may be introduced at a later time to Coven structures, if that is the desire.  By joining the Research Group does NOT constitute an automatic introduction to any Coven and does not give any rights of membership, as the Covens are totally autonomous in their workings.  You can write to us for more information however, for those that are seriously interested. 

If you wish to join as an Associate member, or overseas member of the Research Group, you would be chatting on the Group Pages: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Coven-of-Cythrawl

You may even wish to join other groups, such as the Traditional Witchcraft, or look into Wiccan Craft Witchcraft in which we can help point the way, once you are a fully fledged member of the Research Group.

If you wish to work solo, that it is also fine by us and your secret is safe with us. We will help you get established on your own and once again point you in the right direction, once a member of the Research Group.

If you are below the age of eighteen, requests are taken on a case by case basis after initial discussions and membership to the Research Group on a case-by-case..

The Ordo Anno Mundi is a traditional witchcraft coven from Britain, with approximately 400 members around the world and can trace its initial heritage back to time immemorial, with rites and rituals handed down accordingly.

The Ophidian Traditional Craft which is the backbone of the Ordo Anno Mundi, has been around for a very long time!  One of its magical texts, the "Oera Linda Book", has sections that date back more than four thousand years!

You can learn more by visiting the OAM Traditional Witchcraft page.  To join directly,  go to the world wide membership application form.  

If you are in Asia, you may apply to join the oldest established physical Coven, (The Temple of Cythrawl), and will be expected to send regular copies of your Magical Diary entries to the Chief Instructor, who send it on to the UK, while working through the degrees and join in ritual meetings together.  Drop me an email for any more information.

Traditionally, the initial work will take you through the introductory degrees.  It is a very tough road to take and taxes you both physically and mentally, but the rewards are truly great. 

You may join a group, or work solo; it's up to you!

Blessings & Salutations

The Coven of Cythrawl is the oldest established Coven in Asia, officially seeded from the Gardnerian Craft in England.    Craft, or Wiccan Witchcraft, is only opening very carefully nowadays, and then only to genuine seekers of Witchcraft who prove their dedication and inner spiritualism.   There is certainly NO automatic acceptance and no promise of introduction to these groups by the way and also depends on age.   The rights, lights and honours of initiation are only conferred on those that are vetted and accepted  and subsequently are found worthy by the Covens themselves.   The Wiccan Craft Covens here in Singapore have been quietly operating (since before 1986) with true brothers and sisters of the Craft of the Wise.  Interested persons should write to Azaz with their questions.

Blessed Be.....

            

One of the oldest Orders of Druids today, tracing its "present" history and lineage back to the early 1700s' is 'The Order of the Bards, Ovates & Druids', (OBOD) and permission for a Seed Grove has been granted to operate in Singapore.  There are literally thousands of members from around the world and initiates are welcome to join in with their yearly rites and rituals, wherever a Grove is officially sanctioned.  The closest large Groves to Singapore are presently in Australia, with many hundreds more around the globe, with obviously the headquarters in Great Britain.  Yearly rituals are held at Stone Henge and other major religious places in Britain and visits and rituals held in these locations can be organized by OBOD, with full accommodation prearranged prior to the trip.  To join the Singapore Grove, please contact us for more details.

For those others, who do not wish to join a large order, but practice alone to start with and who are interested in following an Authentic Course in Celtic Druidism can follow the way of, The New Forest Centre, founded by Douglas Monroe, and should first buy his two books, ("The 21 Lessons of Merlyn" and "Lost Books of Merlyn"), to practice alone.

Yours for Peace in the Grove

    Chaos Magick      

One of the most controversial and modern forms of magick today is "Chaos Magic".  Where, "Nothing is True and Everything is Permitted..."

Chaos is the creative principle behind all magick. When a magical ritual is performed, regardless of `tradition' or other variables in the elements of performance, a magical energy is created and put into motion to cause something to happen.  

The basic message of Chaos magic is that, what is fundamental to magick is the actual doing of it and no amount of theorising and intellectualisation can substitute for the actual experience.  Chaotes around the world regularly find that their form of magic actually works, and works exceedingly well.  

Chaos Magick is non-discriminatory and refutes dualism.  Rooted in the realization of the quantum flux and recognizing that ideas are not reality, (although they may influence the perception of reality), Chaos Magick does not discriminate between White, Grey and Black Magick, between evil and good, or between right and wrong, as everything is in the beholder.

Chaos Magick is concerned with developing magick that works; rituals that have specific effects; that create change in conformity with the will of the chaos magician; that are testable and can be replicated; that affect the Chaos Magician's deep self in sometimes crucial and enormous ways, that are non-judgmental, non- hierarchical and sometimes devious.  For those that are interested in researching this form of magick, the Coven will guide the beginning Chaote through the first steps of understanding.  One must be an initiate of the Coven of Cythrawl to commence initial training in Chaos Magick and will subsequently be introduced to the International Order of Chaos Magicians, AutonomatriX - (AX), should they so wish.  

There you have it......

You now have sufficient information to form your own opinions and make a choice.  For those who live in the area, of course the natural choice is to start off with voicing any questions you may have and consider applying for membership into the basic Coven of Cythrawl Research Group.

For some of those very patient people who have been waiting and pushing for an official Coven to be formed, then their wish may have come true and for others who are curious and would like more information, drop us a line.  Let me remind you that it is not a club one simply joins, but a way of life.

There are of course, those among you who still wish to remain anonymous, and wish to join "solo" and commence work on their own.  This is entirely acceptable and you may also get to be initiated as a "Solitaire" or in other words a "Solo Practitioner" or "Solitary".   Some Americans estimate that up to half of practicing Wiccans practice solo, or are solitaire.

Many enquiries come from females only and as already mentioned elsewhere, there are already two Covens that comprise of ONLY 'female initiates' and work closely with the Goddess; and if more females wish to receive more information, then that is their prerogative and they may petition accordingly.

Simply write to us showing your interest, or drop us an email to start with, complete with any questions clearly stated and we will get back to you as soon as we can.  Go to the contacts page for the relevant contact information and please don't be shy.  We were all in the 'same position' as you are now at one time or another.  You may find more information from the Questions & Answers Page - (Q & A)  -  to help in matters not discussed here.

Merry Meet, Merry Part and Merry Meet Again....

Blessed be

Azaz Cythrawl
