Every time we are held in this way, our cells are transformed.

This week we are asking, what is a coven in the age of polycrisis?

The coven is the safe place, the base to return to when our batteries are low, our identities questioned, and our fear overwhelming.
When systems fail, and dominant narratives collapse, covens offer spaces to construct alternative frameworks for understanding what is happening.
To be truly seen and held for all we are saturates the body with oxytocin. Every time we are held in this way, our cells are transformed, building pathways to seek out more.

Curious about the Missing Witches Coven?

Our online coven is a trans-inclusive, anti-racist, feminist as hell, welcoming-to-men, pro-science, anti-ableist, non-dogmatic witchcraft community.

Members join from around the world to attend virtual gatherings, access recorded, co-created classes and rituals, and build real friendships in community. 

We care deeply about creating a safer, braver community space, and you can read our community covenant and guidelines here.

If you have been searching for a place to explore a nature based spirituality grounded in collective resistance and care, we made this space for you!

The RX gives you a little taste of this magick.

The Coven is where we get to actually do the thing together.

TONIGHT! Plantkin All about St Hildegard of Bingen!

Saturday, November 14th, 6-8pm EST, 7-9pm Atlantic, 3-5pm PST

Plantkin is a monthly session hosted by covenmate Jasmin and a rotating cast of co-hosts. This time around, our beloved Sydnee will be speaking about St. Hildegard of Bingen (She is the “Flourish” card in the MW Deck of Oracles.)

At this special meet-up, we will listen and learn all about St Hildegard and her connection to plants - perhaps her spirit will uplift us as we prepare for winter in the northern hemisphere and say goodbye to our outdoor gardening.

Saturday, November 14th, 6-8pm EST, 7-9pm Atlantic, 3-5pm PST

One of the things we're most interested in at Missing Witches is what happens when witchcraft stops being something we consume alone and becomes something we think about, question, practice, and make together.

The Coven is our living space for that.

You don't have to know what you're doing before you arrive, you don't have to call yourself a witch. You just have to be curious enough to come through the door.

And we'll be there cheering, Welcome Home!

Blessed fucking be.

We went looking for the witches we were missing, and we found them. The Missing Witches Coven is home to solitary practitioners, community leaders, techno pagans, crones, baby witches, neuroqueers, and folks who just hug trees and have been looking for their people. We'd love for you to join us. Find out More.
