Can visitors come to a Witchs religious service?
Coven meetings are almost never open to outsiders, although some may, rarely, allow outsiders to attend by invitation. Larger religious services are generally called “rituals” and most are private events open only to those personally invited. Some Traditions do have rituals that are open to the public and held in a public place. Public rituals in the Reclaiming Tradition are announced on the Reclaiming website. Visitors are welcome to public rituals as long as they come with a respectful attitude (see Ritual Etiquette – ecell), and especially if they would welcome a Witch to visit their own worship service. They will understand more if they read a little first, but it is not necessary. Visitors must be willing to participate with an open mind and heart. It is not usually appropriate just to stand around and watch, unless they are disabled and physically unable to participate.
