Do you feel a call to the Sacred and to being with a magical community? Are you interested in practicing and deepening your own ritual skills? Ready to step into your own capacity to create powerful magic for yourself and others?
Ritual invites us to dive deeper into our innate power and humble grace. It invites us to become our own spiritual authority and to align with the sacred as we create new pathways of being. Remembering the ancient and ever-renewing art of ritual or practices that connect can offer ways to heal ourselves and each other.
Ritual builds community, creates art and magic, and supports us in being present with ourselves, the mysterious ones, each other and the earth.
Co-creating rituals can be a vital part of our embodied activism and artistry in the worlds, grounding us in a context of life affirming interdependence.
In this magical weekend we will explore:
- Ritual definitions and reasons why it is so important for us in these times
- Grounding, alignment, cleansing techniques
- Affirming and orienting to space as place as sacred
- Creating strong magical containers
- Calling and working with Elements, Ancestors, Mysterious and Divine Ones
- Raising, shifting and containing energy for personal and collective use,
- Creating and leading trances
- Ritual Design
This class is open to all.
