CHALICE - The Chalice is a symbol of the Goddess and can be made from wood, stone, glass or metal. It can be plain or ornate. What is important is that it contains the wine used in the Rite of Wine and Cakes. or in the Great Rite.
CIRCLE - This defines the sacred Space of the Witch, which is created whenever and wherever it is needed. Casting the Circle is just one part of creating the scared space. A Coven would traditionally cast a circle nine feet across. However, when working on your own it should be as small or large as your needs.
COVEN - A group of 3 or more Witches (Two would be a partnership). Coven size varies considerably, although some consider that a "proper" Coven should be made up of 6 men, 6 women and the High Priestess. The Coven is the family group of Witches.
CRAFT - One of the terms for Witchcraft, which has been rightly described as both an art and craft.
