This week, it’s Margo, Gwen, Maeve, and Brian— yes, the usual suspects— gathered ‘round our well-loved, wax-stained, definitely-seen-some-things coffee table.

We’ve got candles burning, notebooks open, and a tasty little black cherry cider from BC on the side (because we’re fancy like that).

But tonight’s topic? Oh, just a little something light and breezy like... Paganism and Clergy.
Yep—we’re going there.Paganism and Clergy.

Let’s be real: it’s not something you hear about every day in the wider world, but in our communities, it’s a conversation that’s long overdue.

We’re asking the big stuff:

🕯️ What is "clergy" , Pagan-style?
🕯️ Do we need it, or are we all just DIY priests and priestesses anyway?
🕯️ Who gets to say they’re clergy, and is there a secret Pagan paperwork club no one told us about?
🕯️ Most importantly, what does this look like in practice? From hospital visits and end-of-life care to handfastings and community rituals… does having a go-to spiritual person make a difference?

We’re getting into it with all the honesty, sass, and side-eye you’d expect. No gatekeeping, no fluff—just a real convo about leadership, service, and support in our modern Pagan lives.

✨ CALL TO ACTION: Okay, your turn.
Have you ever worked with clergy in a Pagan context, or been one? Do you think formal roles help or hurt the path? Got a spicy take on who gets to call themselves a High Priestess?
We wanna hear it!
