Term: Sister Covens

DEFINITION:

When a coven becomes too large to be easily manageable, it may divide into two or more smaller sister covens. They are considered equal and friendly and may attend each other’s rituals. Note that this is different from a daughter coven that “hives off” from a mother coven. Generally, the coven that keeps the original High Priestess maintains the original name while the other coven adopts a new name.
