History

This tradition of Eclectic Wicca was started in the late 1960's and was known as the Silver Chalice. The main coven was located in the Westchester area of upstate New York. By the end of 1986 the land was sold, and all of the covens that had come from the Silver Chalice were refered to as UEW. This broad based tradition was created by Jayne Tomas, and was expanded on by Kaatryn MacMorgan. The original purpose of this group was to bring together followers from several different groups whose leaders had learned from the same training circle. The UEW is the result of people coming together from a varity of different covens, and devolping a tradition that encompasses all of the different beliefs. This tradition is based on an infinite number of sources. According to Lady Martia this tradition was created partly out of necessity with a group of people practicing similar but different beliefs, it was also created out of a need for reform, as it was felt that too much power was with the men in the Gardnerian, and Alexandria traditions, and that not enough focus was given to men in the Dianic tradition. The Church of Universal Eclectic Wicca has been in existance since 1995. Its main teaching outlet is the Coven of the Far Flung Net which is a virtual coven that was established in January of 1998. This was one of the first virtual covens, and this coven is still providing free education in the wiccan religion through mailing lists, and interest based groups.
