About
A lineaged tradition, carried forward.
We preserve the public history of Alexandrian Witchcraft and build the community that carries it forward.
What we do
Preserving the history. Offering inspiration and education. Elevating meaningful Craft discussion.
The record of the tradition is scattered across many hands and many sources. This site keeps it in one place: photographs, documents, films and recollections held together as a single educational resource, the first place to look for anything Alexandrian, and a meeting place for those drawn to the path.

The founders
Alex and Maxine Sanders.
Alex Sanders
1926–1988
Co-founder of the Alexandrian tradition and, for a time, the public face of British witchcraft itself. Sanders courted attention in an era when most practitioners avoided it, and that choice still shapes how people react to his name. He was neither the villain some accounts make him nor the martyr others prefer. What he built outlasted the arguments about him, and the arguments are worth understanding rather than settling.
Maxine Sanders
born 1946
Co-founder of the tradition, and unlike much of what gets written about its early years, she is still here to speak for herself. Six decades in, she remains an active teacher, not a name preserved for the sake of lineage charts. Her ongoing work is part of the tradition’s present, not just its founding story.
