At this time we are NOT looking for new students.  However, our Outer Court as well as ACORN is still open for new members.

    How to Join or Visit as a Guest:

1.     You must first meet with Lord Alexian  for a lunch "screening" to discuss Wicca in general and also ask any questions that you may have concerning Alexandrian Wicca.  This helps filter out people who really aren't interested in our tradition.
2.     After "passing" this initial screening, you will be mailed an invitation to attend a Sabbat with Twisted Oak as a Guest.  After attending a minimum of 2 Sabbats with Twisted Oak, you will become "Outer Court" eligible.
3.     Now that you are "Outer Court" eligible, you will be mailed (usually emailed!) an Invitation to join our Outer Court.  If you choose to not join, you can not visit again, without first asking for another invitation, and then explaining why you turned down Outer Court.  If you say Yes, and accept membership into our Outer Court, you will immediately be added to our notification lists to be informed of all Sabbats and automatically invited.  There are also a few "open" classes where Outer Court members can attend.  You will also be notified of these as well as our Coven Social events.   Basically, Outer Court is a status of "Affiliation" without making any attempt to "study" the craft and become a "Priest" or "Priestess". 
   ===================================================================================
   
   After you accept Outer Court, you may then petition to join the coven to study, *IF* we are accepting New Students.  (Currently we are NOT accepting any new students.)
    
4.     Make your request, preferably in writing, to Lord Alexian, and it will be brought before the coven at the next Coven Business Meeting, where we will schedule your "Hotseat". (Business Meetings happen once a month.)
5.     The "Hotseat" is just that.  You are put in a chair, and surrounded by the coven, and you are asked many many questions which you should answer truthfully from your heart.  The TRUTH is the main thing to remember!  After your hotseat the coven will take a democratic vote to let you join or not.  If you are turned down, you may still remain a member of our Outer Court and still celebrate with us!  You may even re-apply to join at a later date.
6.     If you are voted "IN", then you become known as a "Pre-Dedicant".  You will have to attend 3 pre-dedication classes and do 5 book reports.  After this work is done, your "Dedication Ritual" will be scheduled and you will become an official "Covener" within Twisted Oak Coven, and be known as a "Postulant".
7. Once you are a "Postulant" you study for a MINIMUM of a "Year and a Day", and a MAXIMUM of 3 Years, before you are Initiated and become a 1st Degree "Initiate" of the  Alexandrian Tradition.
8. You are well On Your Way!
