Greetings from the Sandalwood Grove in California!

[Sandalwood Grove]

Merry meet everyone! Just wanted to give a brief introduction here:

We are a grove within the collective of The Order of the Sacred Grove (OSG), an initiatory tradition dedicated to the devotion of the Goddess and the practice of Witchcraft. We periodically open our community to serious minded students who would like to apprentice for a year-and-a-day with qualified priestesses of this tradition. We are an initiatory society and apprentices are taught by mentors within the Order. Emphasis is on learning, experiential work and devotional practice, with a focus on the deities of India and Eastern Asia.

We encourage freedom of thought and individual expression; "Do What Thou Wilt, An It Harm None." We strive to accommodate a wide range of beliefs and practices. Training is free, but we will only teach those who feel they have a true calling to walk this path and to study the Old Religion. Thank you for your interest. May your quest be guided.

Konnichi Wa to Sandalwood Grove-San (bows politely):

I looked at your Website and it is Very Beautiful.

:)

I noticed that all of your Gods and Goddesses are of Hindu Panthenon, so I guess you guys are Very Hinduistic in the Nature of your Belief Systems.

But in your "Enter in Perfect Love and in Perfect Trust", you do have a Very Beautiful Picture of The Stonehenge. So that means you must be Very Celtic in your Beliefs as well.

Looks like you have a Pretty Good Movement Going.

Carry on Doing As You Wilt, Whilst Harming None!

Bonzai!

Konnichi-Wa to you KiNoRonin-san! Yes, the Sandalwood Grove is one of several groves within the collective of the Order of the Sacred Grove (OSG). The different groves within OSG each have their own pantheons and specific interests. While our focus is primarily on the deities of India and Eastern Asia, other groves within OSG have other focuses (Celtic, Greek and Egyptian.) And when OSG was first started back in 1995 it was a Celtic-oriented group. So when you link back to the main Order of the Sacred Grove site from our website, that is why the sudden shift from Eastern to Celtic. :)
Thank you for the warm welcome. Blessed be!

Hello and :welcome: to MW!!!

[Sandalwood Grove]

LOL, no, nothing in Canada... Our covens are all located in the San Francisco Bay Area. :)

Seeing as your Website has a Very Good Scenic Picture of the Stonehenge, I guess quite a few of your Members have made Pilgrimages there, haven they?

Ah yes, wouldn't that be a fun pilgrimage! :)

Ah yes, wouldn't that be a fun pilgrimage! :)

Beautiful to see. But when I went, it was so ridiculous you couldn't really enjoy it.

Large fences up, and a long line to wait in, walk through and get out. Made it difficult to get really nice pictures of the structure.

I did like that they had separation poles up to keep people from messing with the structure though.

OT:
Welcome to MW!
