Woodsong grove and her sister covens practice the traditional craft in the Ravenwood lineage.

In the early 70s, High Priestess and Witch Queen Lady Sintana founded the Ravenwood Lineage in Toledo Ohio. Lady Sintana was herself initiated by Lady Circe, a traditional Celtic witch, and Lord Sariel, a practitioner of Italian Strega who, it is said, sacrificed his left small toe for knowledge of the Craft.

Lady Sintana moved from Toledo to Atlanta in 1975. She founded the House of Ravenwood, Georgia’s first pagan congregation to receive 501(c) 3 status as a non-profit church. The House of Ravenwood continues to prosper in Atlanta today under the leadership of her successor, Lady Maia.
