esert Moon Circle is a Wiccan coven based out of Scottsdale, Arizona, serving the entire Valley of the Sun. It's members comprise of established Priestesses and Priests, some of whom were originally members and dedicates of the Circle of the Moon coven, having spun off on Beltane of 2008 to form Desert Moon Circle, a new coven with a primary focus on the traditional Celtic path. In said time, we have established ourselves firmly as a coven within the valley.
Desert Moon Circle comprises of High Priestess Caria Dawn, Priestesses Autumn, Delphy, Greenbran, Hummingbird, Illyria, Lily, Malina, and Oschun and Priests Aislinn, Curran, and Kearagan, as well as one Dedicant and one Seeker. Embracing the extraordinary talents and nearly unlimited breadth of knowledge of each of the aforementioned members, we pride ourselves on illuminating a path for Seekers yearning to learn and master the craft, as well as continuing and furthering our knowledge from within our own ranks. Because we are a learning and working coven, we have embraced a full three degree system and include a year and a day program for all initiates, as has been tradition.
