My Dearest Autumn Heather,       You have come into a time when you now need to take deeper looks at your pathworking.  In Second Degree training, you will not have a lot of the text as you had in first degree.  This year you will learn and be expected to be active in L&S as you learn to guide and lead.  You are a priestess of Light & Shadows and now will start your pathworking as one of the leaders here, helping me with coven responsibilities.    You will be learning a bit more of the deeper mysteries and find out what it is to be part of the inner circle of a coven.  This is a deep responsiility and one that takes commitment.    You are not just a name on the internet, you are a priestess in a working coven.  You will act and do what is expected in any coven...and by doing so, will be training to eventually be able to know just how to take up the sword yourself in third degree...But for now...let's start at the beginning ...   You HAVE to be interactive with the other members of the coven...As a Priestess in second degree training, you will be responsible for daliy work on the boards and interacting DAILY.   Your Esbat Ritual work MUST be completed and posted one week before the date of the actual esbat you are resonsible for.  It must be posted here on the ritual working board and an announcemnt created with direction for tools needed each time posted under the ritual and then once seen by me or Lady Q, can be posted on Chalandor General board at least 3 days before the esbat ritual will be performed.   Your assignment for  the Quarter is to get a workshop finsihed advertised and set up to give within the month of February. You need to stay in contact with me about what your workshop is about and I must see what you will be instructing before it is given.  I will be waiting and watching ... Good Luck.   Namaste Lady Majyk Whispering-Owl
