Witch:  ORIGIN
Sep
16

Witch: ORIGIN

Witch: Origin is an immersive six-part class series designed to help you clear shadow energies, harness your personal power, and integrate witchcraft into your daily life. Over six classes, we'll explore foundational practices, learn to connect with our intuition, and work to heal the Witch Wound, culminating in a powerful ritual and commitment ceremony to step into your full potential. Whether you are just finding witchcraft, are craft-curious, or you have dabbled in it for years — this class is for you! Six week series starts Monday, September 16th from 7:30-9:30pm. September 16- October 21st.

Have you watched a movie or read a book with a powerful witchy character that calls out to a deep feeling in your very being? A part of you that craves wanting to be full of your own magick — powerful, more connected, and humming with vibrant energy?

AS SEEKERS OF MAGICK — OF LIVING A LIFE THAT WE CO-CREATE, WE OFTEN DENY OURSELVES THE RIGHT TO STAND IN OUR OWN POWER

We're taught to question our powers, our strength — and we’re told it isn’t possible for them to be used to manifest the life we want, or that none of it is “real.”

Because of this, we often let imposter syndrome take over, or we practice our magick in the shadows, possibly filled with fear, doubts, or shame. This keeps us from opening up and fully connecting to our higher selves — inhibiting our abilities — gifts that every one of us is born with. This can be a lonely, isolated place to be, to learn, and to explore in.

You may be feeling unsure about how to tap into and use your magickal power. 

You might be seeking structure for your rituals or need guidance on which tools, herbs, or elements to use.

-OR…

You may be bursting with excitement to step into your life as a witch.

Witch: Origin is a live and immersive six-part class series designed to help you explore witchcraft basics, harness your personal power, and integrate witchcraft into your daily life. Over six classes, we'll explore foundational practices, learn to connect with our intuition and the universe we are surrounded by — culminating in a powerful ritual and commitment ceremony to step into your full potential.

Whether you are just finding witchcraft, are craft-curious, or you have dabbled in it for years — this class is for you!

Some of what this course covers:

  • What is magick?

  • Working with the Wheel of the Year, the Elements, and celestial bodies

  • Ritual vs spellwork

  • Ritual basics and setting up your altar

  • Ways to be magical every day in your life

  • Creating sacred space

  • Working with your intuition and spirit guides

  • Witch wounds and how they show up in your life

  • Working with shadow

  • Goddess and God Archetypes

We will end with a commitment ceremony to ourselves - to lock in what we have learned and commit to keeping magick in our lives and continuing our practice.

Pricing

  • $425: Includes 6 weeks of unlimited yoga

  • $350: Series only
