You'll get invited to our Meetups as soon as they're scheduled!
Tennessee Wyrdoes is an umbrella organization which hosts three Meetup groups in Knoxville on Witches, Pagans, and Magickal topics. Through the Meetup.com Web site, these meetups serve as centralized places for local pagans to meet and network. Each Meetup is coordinated by two or more people who work together to schedule activities in which the participants have shown an interest. Coordinators of the three meetups also work together to ensure that the meetups run smoothly, avoid scheduling conflicts, and share resources.
Where does the name Wyrdoes come from? What does it mean to be Wyrd?
Definition of Wyrd from the Wordnet Dicionary: Wyrd is a concept in Ancient Anglo-saxon and Nordic cultures roughly corresponding to fate. The word comes from Anglo-Saxon verb weorşan, to become, and itself derives from an Indo-European root verb meaning to turn. It?s most specific definition points it firmly at that which has become, i.e. the past. Nestled within the bower of this is a meaning which has strong associations with magical transformation, and this concept is also interwoven with a well-nourished idea of predestination.

So then Tennessee Wyrdoes represents transformation from its roots in KAPOW into something new, something that will establish its own destiny.
