| Often people come to Clann C as a group they are interested in because of our longevity, organization and structure. However if the Celtic, specifically Arthurian Celtic, is not your pantheon of choice, there really is NO point in you becoming an aspirant to us. So how do you know?? Below are suggested books to read and websites to check out. If none of these sing to your soul, or even pique your interest, we are not the coven for you. Brightest Blessings on your journey. |
