Thank you to everyone that came out to both our Beltane Ritual and Lunar Labyrinth Walk!These last few months have been absolutely wonderful with outside walks, rituals and Masquerades! Thank you to everyone that has come out, connected and helped support this community <3 Special thanks to those in our community that has stepped up and supported these gatherings! Here are some of the photos of those.  We still have our online Astrology & Witchcraft together workshop, our in-person Tarot 101 Workshop and our Memorial Warriors Ritual & UU service honoring our veterans and warriors. We are also deep into planning our Midsummer Pride Gathering where we honor both our LBGTQIA+ Community and the Norse God Loki! After reaching out to quite a lot of organizations, we have learned we are the largest Loki centered event in the country!!
When we use astrology, we are looking at the movements of the planets and using those celestial movements to understand the greater movements of it all. If we had to put it more poetically, reading astrology is about reading the larger story behind the events in our universe. While each of us individually may just represent one cog in the greater whole, astrology gives us information about how that cog fits. It tells us about our own individual place in the greater narrative of the universal story. Those celestial movements can also give us insight into our personal magickal practice. Sometimes there are opportunities for amazing magick and witchcraft that we don't know is a great time to do in our own lives.
Shannon will delve into the basics of astrology in this workshop while giving you the tools to plan your witchcraft accordingly. We will use the next Full Moon and New Moon to see what types of magick is good for us individually. To participate, you will need your natal chart handy. We recommend having a print out if possible for notes https://alabe.com/freechart/default.asp ZOOM LINK: https://zoom.us/j/95205132707 FB Link: https://fb.me/e/3AAGuYeCP OhMyGods it's happening soon!
