This can be difficult as covens generally do not advertise their whereabouts. If you are lucky enough to find a coven you can encounter resistance at the outset.

You may find yourself an outsider until you can prove yourself worthy and show you are not merely playing out a personal fantasy. Patience and gentle persistence is the way to gain approval from a coven. Always offer help and assistance and do not expect anything in return. Ask questions and be thankful of advice given by elders. A word of warning, until you are established and experienced be a little wary of any coven ethos. Most are full of good and honest people but a few covens do not have such good intentions.
