Traditionally it takes a minimum of a year and a day to achieve a Wiccan degree. Sometimes it takes much longer. These lessons have been formulated with this dictum in mind. These lessons are meant to be done at the rate of one a month. Twelve lessons following a month apart require at least a year to complete. This allows the student plenty of time to digest the information, which is quite wide-ranging in nature.
Lessons covered in this course include Magick, Cosmology, Personal Power, The Altar, The Airts, The Circle of Art, Invocation, Garb; Symbols, Omens and Divination, Basic Energy Work, Herbs, Oils and Incense and Stones and Crystals. Each lesson is divided into several parts, namely: the lesson itself, exercises, God of the Month, Spell of the Month, the Glossary and an Exam.

The Second Degree Lessons have been created with the intention of giving the Second Degree student as wide a range of knowledge as possible. This is necessary for the Second Degree Priest/ess to function effectively and credibly.
The First Degree constitutes the lowest degree of initiated Priesthood, but First Degree Priesthood are understood to be still in the process of learning their role as Clergy. Second Degree Priesthood, once initiated, are expected to know and be confident of their role, as it is the Second Degree which often handles much of the running of a Temple or Shrine. First Degree Priesthood are expected to still have many questions and the Second Degree Priesthood are expected to be able to answer all but the most difficult of them. Consequently it behooves the Priesthood of the Second Degree to be as well informed as possible.
As with the Lessons for First Degree, the Second Degree Lessons contain several sections, which are intended to complement each other. These sections include the lesson, exercises, Spell of the Month, a glossary and the Exam. The subject matter of the twelve lessons include Tarot, Physiognomy, Astrology, Magical Alphabets, Numerology, Deaths, Spirits and Spirit Guides, Sex Magic, Magical Calendars, Advanced Chakra and energy working, Ley Lines, The Ba Gua and Group Dynamix. In keeping with this, the Lessons are both longer and more in-depth than the First Degree Lessons. They are intended to give you a well-rounded magical education, building upon your foundation as a First Degree.

The Third Degree Lessons are considerably harder than previous Degrees. In addition to the written materials there are also a number of other requirements in the form of papers and practical projects which will need to be completed.
In pursuing these Lessons you will not only gain in-depth knowledge of things that you may never have thought of before but through diligent application of that knowledge and the exercises which accompany each Lesson will hopefully gain mastery of skills which few possess. The Third Degree is not something to be entered into lightly. It may appear that the High Priesthood receives most of the glamour and prestige of Temple life, but this is a deceptive appearance: for it is upon the Third Degree that the responsibility and the larger share of the work falls. No matter how many people are in a Temple if the Third Degree falters difficulties are likely to ensue, for it is upon the Third Degree that the responsibility for setting direction and maintaining morale fall, in addition to all of their more obvious duties.
