High Priestess Bio

I am Mandrake, the High Priestess of Spirits Cauling York.  Our group operates more like a family than a normal coven so the title holds no additional power, just the responsibility of serving on the coven council, helping the daily runnings of the group and answering questions and inquiries about our group.

I am a 36 year old 3rd degree, I’ve been a practicing pagan since 1995. I am married to WolfFire and mother to 3 wonderful children. I enjoy reading, writing and researching various topics.  My personal strength is crystal and stone magick and home and hearth magick.  I’m more of a earthy hippy type pagan than a high ceremony type person.  I am a recent graduate of Anthropology from York College and will soon be starting graduate studies for Applied History.

Feel free to contact me if you’d like to chat or need more information about our group.  I can be reached at my email.   Namaste
