In this thought-provoking episode of For Coven’s Sake, Karagan and Michael delve into one of the foundational principles of traditional Alexandrian witchcraft: that a practitioner may belong to only one coven—and have only one teacher—at a time.

With warmth, wit, and depth, they unpack the practical, philosophical, and magical reasoning behind this doctrine, discussing the role of discipline, devotion, and integrity in the Craft. The episode also addresses the controversies surrounding outer courts, paid trainings, and the confusion created when seekers hop between traditions without clear intent.

Karagan and Michael speak candidly about the very real differences between Alexandrian and Gardnerian witchcraft, the meaning behind lineages, and the importance of thoughtful seeking in a landscape where not all teachings are equal.

Whether you’re exploring the path or are well along your way, this episode offers essential insight into what it truly means to dedicate yourself to the Craft.
