About Agape Covens and the Crossroads Movement
What is Agape Covens?
Agape Covens is the philosophical and spiritual hub for the Crossroads Movement. It’s where we explore the intersection of conscious evolution, practical sovereignty, and collective transformation during what I call the Great Transition. This isn’t a traditional coven in the sense of a closed magical circle, but an open community of practitioners, transition leaders, and conscious builders who are doing the work of creating alternatives to the collapsing systems we’ve inherited.
The name “Agape” refers to unconditional love, the kind of love that serves consciousness and evolution, not the sentimental kind that bypasses reality. This is love that does the hard work. Love that tells the truth. Love that builds something real.
What is the Crossroads Movement?
The Crossroads Movement is a comprehensive framework for training and coordinating transition leaders who guide communities through civilizational collapse and build what comes next. We’ve identified 15 sectors of society (Transportation, Housing, Medical, Education, Economics, Government, Arts, Agriculture, Technology, Security, Justice, Community, Spirituality, Emergency Response, and Family), and we’re creating covens, and councils of practitioners, for each sector to develop regenerative, conscious alternatives.
This movement is about practical action, not just spiritual philosophy. It’s about building self-sufficient communities, reclaiming sovereignty, and navigating the Great Transition with consciousness and community.
What is the Great Transition?
The Great Transition is the extensive evolution happening right now across every dimension of human existence. The earth, our bodies, our consciousness, our societies, our cultures, and our interaction with each other and nature, is all changing drastically. The systems that have organized civilization for generations are breaking down, and we’re at a crossroads where we can either collapse into chaos or consciously build the new world we want to see.
This isn’t about doom and gloom. It’s about recognizing that transformation is happening whether we’re ready or not, and choosing to participate consciously in what’s being born.
Who is this work for?
This work is for transition leaders, conscious practitioners, and anyone who feels called to build alternatives during this time of massive change. It’s for people who can handle both spiritual wisdom and practical reality. For people who are done with spiritual bypassing and ready to do real shadow work in service to the collective. People who want sovereignty without isolation, community without hierarchy, and consciousness without dogma.
If you’re already building alternatives in your sector, experimenting with regenerative systems, or feeling the call to step into leadership during the Great Transition, this is for you. If you’re just beginning to wake up to what’s happening and want to find your place in the transformation, this is also for you.
What does “transition leader” mean?
A transition leader is someone who guides communities through the collapse of old systems while building new ones. They’re not gurus or authorities standing above others, they’re practitioners doing the work alongside their communities. They’re people who have developed their own consciousness enough to hold space for others during chaos. They’re experimenters, builders, coordinators, teachers, and servants of the collective evolution.
You don’t need credentials or titles to be a transition leader. You need commitment, consciousness, and the willingness to serve.
What are the 15 sectors?
The 15 sectors are the different areas of society that need conscious transformation:
- Transportation
- Housing
- Medical
- Education
- Economics
- Government
- Arts
- Agriculture
- Technology
- Security
- Justice
- Community
- Spirituality
- Emergency Response
- Family
Each sector has its own unique challenges and opportunities for building regenerative alternatives. The idea is that people are called to serve specific sectors based on their gifts, experience, and passion.
What does it mean to create a “coven” for each sector?
In the Crossroads Movement, a coven is a council of practitioners working together to create conscious change in their sector. It’s not a traditional witchcraft coven (though spiritual & magical practices are used for conscious living and building). It’s a working group of transition leaders who are experimenting with alternatives, sharing what’s working, coordinating efforts, and building the frameworks needed for their sector to function in regenerative, conscious ways.
Covens operate using principles of heterarchy and synarchy, shared leadership and distributed power, rather than traditional top-down hierarchies.
What is heterarchy and synarchy?
Heterarchy is a system of organization where elements are unranked or where they have the potential to be ranked in a multiple of different ways. Synarchy is shared rule or collaborative governance. In practice, this means we’re experimenting with leadership structures that don’t depend on one person at the top making all the decisions. Instead, we’re learning to lead together, distribute power, and make decisions collaboratively while honoring different kinds of expertise and wisdom.
We’re figuring this out as we go. It’s part of the experiment.
About the Philosophy and Practices
What spiritual tradition is this based on?
Agape Covens doesn’t belong to one specific tradition. The work integrates wisdom from multiple sources including Gene Keys, Human Design, I Ching, tarot, astrology, numerology, and various cultural mythologies. But this isn’t about teaching individual systems, it’s about synthesizing practical frameworks that help people navigate consciousness and build alternatives.
I honor lineages and traditions while maintaining autonomy. The goal is conscious relationship with wisdom teachings, not blind adherence or complete rejection of tradition.
Do I have to believe in magic or be spiritual to participate?
You need to be willing to work with consciousness, your own and the collective’s. Whether you call that spiritual practice, shadow work, personal development, or something else entirely doesn’t matter. What matters is that you’re committed to knowing yourself honestly, to examining your patterns and wounds, and to growing your capacity to hold complexity and paradox.
The magical practices and celebrations are here for those who resonate with them. But the core work is about consciousness, sovereignty, and building practical alternatives. You can engage with that from whatever framework makes sense to you.
What is shadow work and why does it matter?
Shadow work is the practice of examining the parts of yourself you’ve disowned, denied, or hidden, your wounds, your fears, your unhealed patterns, your biases, and your blind spots. It matters because every unexamined wound becomes a distortion in your perception and a weakness in your leadership. You cannot guide anyone beyond territories you haven’t honestly mapped within yourself.
In the Crossroads Movement, we position shadow work as collective service. Doing your personal consciousness work isn’t selfish, it’s how you become a clearer channel for the collective transformation.
How do you integrate spirituality with practical reality?
This is the core of the work. Spiritual wisdom that doesn’t touch the ground isn’t useful to anyone navigating real life. And practical action without consciousness often just recreates the same extractive patterns in new forms. We need both.
The integration happens by treating mundane tasks as sacred infrastructure work, by building systems that actually serve people’s needs, honoring both intuition and analysis, and holding mystical vision AND practical implementation. It’s both/and, not either/or.
What role does technology play in this work?
Technology isn’t the enemy. It’s a tool. The question is how we use it. I use technology extensively, voice-to-text for content creation, AI for music composition, social media for reaching people, and automation for business systems. I’m disabled with physical limitations, and technology allows me to create and share what I otherwise couldn’t.
The goal is finding balance between technology and sovereignty. Using technology in ways that enhance consciousness rather than replace it. Building systems that serve people rather than extract from them. This is part of what we’re experimenting with in the movement.
About Content and Offerings
What is the Worldly Watch Tower series?
The Worldly Watch Tower series is where I scry current events through conscious eyes. I track patterns in the collective, witness what’s happening in the world, and translate observations into accessible frameworks. It’s not about predictions, it’s about seeing what’s actually emerging and what’s dissolving. Helping people navigate what’s happening with more awareness.
What is Agape Emergence: A Mundane Revolution?
This series explores how spiritual consciousness and mission show up in everyday life, not just in meditation retreats or ritual spaces. It’s about discovering that washing dishes, fixing cars, managing a household, and even running a business, all of it can be sacred practice when approached with consciousness. The mundane IS the revolution.
What is the Agape Collective of Arcane Arts Merchant Guild?
This is where I sell products that support individual and collective journeys into conscious living. Digital products, art, tools, resources, things that actually serve the work people are doing. It’s not about consumerism; it’s about providing practical support for practitioners.
What are the musical incantations?
These are songs I create using AI tools like Suno, positioned as medicine rather than entertainment. They’re meant to help people contemplate spiritual concepts and the mission of the Great Transition. I call them incantations because they’re designed to shift consciousness, not just to be catchy tunes.
I’m creating these as a disabled person using available technology to bring through what wants to be created. They’re part of my practice of finding balance between technology and sovereignty.
What is the Climb Above the Clutter series?
This series provides resources and tools that assist with individual and collective consciousness work. It’s about cutting through the noise, the propaganda, the endless information overwhelm, and getting to what actually matters for your growth and the collective transformation.
What is The Scrolls of Agape?
The Scrolls of Agape is the newsletter that keeps members updated with new releases, deep dive content, scrying reflections on collective patterns, practical guidance for navigating the transition, and invitations to participate in what’s being built. It’s the anchor point for staying connected to the movement without having to constantly check multiple platforms.
You can subscribe on the website to receive these regular transmissions.
What is The Crossroads Scrying?
This is a service in development that will provide deep multi-dimensional readings to help transition leaders and members figure out their specific roles in the movement. It’s about helping people discern where they’re called to serve, what gifts they bring, what wounds need attention before they can lead effectively, and what their unique contribution to the Great Transition might be.
About Participation and Community
How do I join the Crossroads Movement?
You start by showing up. Read the content. Reflect on what resonates. Join the conversations in blog comments or social media. Subscribe to The Scrolls of Agape newsletter. Join one or more of the Facebook groups (Transition Leaders Workshop for active leaders, Sacred Cycles and Earth Medicine for sabbat and earth practices, & Sacred Philosophy Circle for philosophical discussion).
Most importantly, start doing the work. Start building alternatives in your sector. Start doing your shadow work. Start experimenting with conscious community. The movement isn’t something you join by signing up, it’s something you participate in by actually doing the work.
What are the Facebook groups and how do I join them?
There are three Facebook groups:
Transition Leaders Workshop (Private): For people actively stepping into leadership roles in the Crossroads Movement. Request to join and let me know what sector you’re serving or what transition work you’re doing.
Sacred Cycles and Earth Medicine (Public): For discussing sabbats, seasonal celebrations, and earth medicine practices. Open to anyone interested in these topics.
Sacred Philosophy Circle (Public): For deep philosophical discussion about the content, teachings, and frameworks. Open to anyone who wants to explore ideas together.
Search for these groups on Facebook and request to join the ones that feel aligned.
Do I have to be on social media to participate?
No. You can engage through blog comments, subscribe to the newsletter, and connect directly through the website. Social media is one avenue for connection, but it’s not required. Choose the platforms and methods that work for your life and your relationship with technology.
Is there a cost to participate?
The foundational content, philosophy, and community spaces are free and accessible. The Facebook groups are free. The newsletter is free. Blog content is free.
Some offerings like products in the Merchant Guild, future services like The Crossroads Scrying, and potential premium membership tiers will have costs because this work requires resources to sustain. But the core of the movement is accessible to anyone who wants to participate.
Can I contribute content or resources?
Yes. As the movement grows, we need more voices, more experiments, and more documentation of what’s working. If you’re doing transition work in your sector and want to share what you’re learning, reach out. The vision is for this to become a truly collaborative effort where many leaders are contributing, not just me creating everything.
How do I figure out which sector I’m called to serve?
Pay attention to what you’re already drawn to. What problems keep your attention? What systems frustrate you the most? What are you already experimenting with or wanting to build? Where do your skills, experience, and passion intersect?
Your sector might be obvious, or it might emerge over time. You might serve multiple sectors. The Crossroads Scrying service (when it launches) can help with this discernment, but you can also start by simply noticing what calls to you and beginning there.
What if I’m already doing this work but didn’t know it was called “the Crossroads Movement”?
Perfect. You’re exactly who this movement is for. The Crossroads Movement isn’t trying to claim ownership of all transition work, it’s trying to coordinate and support it. If you’re already building alternatives, experimenting with regenerative systems, or guiding your community through transformation, then you’re already a transition leader. Connect with others doing similar work. Share what you’re learning. Let’s build the frameworks together.
I’m new to all of this and feel overwhelmed. Where do I start?
Start with yourself. Do your shadow work. Read the content and see what resonates. Join one of the public Facebook groups and just listen for a while. Subscribe to the newsletter. Take your time. This is a lifelong practice, not a weekend workshop.
The Great Transition is happening over years, even decades. You don’t have to figure everything out right now. Just take the next step that feels aligned, and then the next one after that.
About Kristi and Agape Covens’ Origins
Who created Agape Covens and the Crossroads Movement?
I’m Kristi, the High Priestess of Agape Coven and founder of the Crossroads Movement. I’m a transition leader, artist, writer, musician, and builder navigating the Great Transition while managing a multigenerational household, homeschooling children and grandchildren, and running Witch Cat Roadside LLC (a mobile automotive service business). I have ADHD and physical disabilities, which means I work with technology extensively to create and share what’s coming through.
I’m not interested in being a guru. I’m interested in building real infrastructure for the Great Transition and coordinating with other leaders doing the same work.
Why did you create this?
Because the world is transforming whether we’re ready or not, and we need frameworks for navigating it consciously. Efforts to coordinate transition leaders across sectors. Spaces created for practitioners to connect, learn from each other, and build together. Ways to document what’s working so future generations have foundations to build on.
I created this because it wants to be created, because I’m called to serve the collective evolution in this way, and because I believe we can navigate the Great Transition with both consciousness and practical effectiveness if we do it together.
How can I contact you directly?
You can message me through the website contact form or reach out on any of the social media platforms where I’m active (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube). For collaboration inquiries, questions about the movement, or anything else, those are the best channels.
Technical Questions
What is the website URL?
The main website is agapecoven.com. This is where you’ll find all the blog content, information about the movement, subscription signup for The Scrolls of Agape, and links to all other platforms and resources.
How often is new content published?
Content is published as it’s ready. I’m a prolific creator with ADHD, which means ideas flow constantly and I create in bursts rather than on a rigid schedule. Subscribe to The Scrolls of Agape newsletter to stay updated on new releases without having to constantly check the website.
Can I share this content?
Yes. The ideas and frameworks are meant to spread. Share blog posts, quote the philosophy, discuss the concepts, and link to the website. The only request is that you attribute the work appropriately and don’t claim it as your own creation.
The goal is to get these ideas and practices into the world, not to hoard them.
Still Have Questions?
If your question wasn’t answered here, reach out through the website contact form, ask in one of the Facebook groups, or comment on a relevant blog post. This FAQ will evolve as more questions arise and as the movement develops.
We’re building this together, which means your questions help shape what this becomes.
