Witches and magicians believe their psychic powers are strongly connected to nature and elemental forces. We started running regular Rituals, Wicca/ magic courses and workshops in the woods since 2004 and have developed our style and contents to suit the outdoor setting – as a way of reconnecting pagans & magicians to nature and thus empower them.
This is an workshop where you’ll learn different techniques of doing ritual magic for your self. There will be practical magical workings – Candle magic, Cord Magic. You’ll also be taught some key sigils & symbols to use with your magical workings; There will also be an introduction to Ethics of Magic, Magical safety techniques, and brief over view of other types of spellcraft such as image & poppets magic, blood & sex magic, creating Witch bottles & doing Healing spells.
