What does COVEN mean in Scrabble?
noun
A group or gathering of witches, traditionally said to number thirteen.
A coven functions in witchcraft lore and modern Wiccan practice as the basic unit of organization, a small, often secretive circle that meets to perform rituals together rather than working alone. Folklore fixed the number of a coven at thirteen, though real Wiccan groups today vary in size and do not always follow that count strictly. Beyond witchcraft, writers sometimes borrow coven loosely for any close-knit, slightly sinister group of people, such as a coven of rival executives plotting in a boardroom.
How COVEN is used
Chiefly used in the context of witchcraft and Wiccan practice, and occasionally borrowed loosely for any tight, secretive group.
