Our Wicca Full moon Rituals  are ideal for people interested in Wicca & Witchcraft.  They provide an Introduction to Wicca, Witchcraft & Ritual Magic – for all new comers and beginners, and Seekers of The Craft.  Consisting of friendly and informal introductions, they then move on to a formal Wiccan Ritual – facilitated by me – Mani Navasothy (Initiated Wiccan of 20 years, Gardnerian  High Priest).

Note- Our Wicca Full moon Ritual gatherings are returning after a month gap, by popular request.   Those interested in joining our closed training coven should first attend  these wicca full moon rituals and gain some practical experience.

What to  bring: 

***Please dress appropriate for weather! ***  We are tired of seeing people who attend with thin / minimum clothing, and then become cold quickly.  (a)  If you are cold, you can not focus on the ritual / magic , and (b), Seeing someone else being cold  severely distracts the others from focusing on their own magical work.

**Please DO bring some food (sensible snacks..  bread & cheese / humus are a good start)  and any soft drink/wine that you like to share with others in circle.   Social element/ feasting together is an important aspect of Wiccan rituals.

** Our rituals may start in twilight, but often end when it’s already nightfall..   So a torchlight is a great tool to have as `standard’ in your travel bag for woodland rituals, as well as a blanket / small ground sheet to sit on.

What ritual tools / items to bring

– A wand a or athame – if you have one. Please make sure you observer the law on carrying knives (any such item must be packed during transport, so that it can not be quickly `pulled out’ and used.

-your own magical items – crystals, tarot etc.

-A robe/ cloak to wear

What NOT To BRING

– please DO NOT bring used candles, or candles that already have magical work done on them.

-do not bring pre-made charms/ talismans for the purpose of `charging them up’ ..

Training & Personal Magical development:

These are training circles.  Introduction & explanations of many aspects of the ritual are given through out, and you’ll be given opportunities to take certain minor or major roles in the ritual. Major roles will need preparation and learning beforehand, so will be offered to those attending regularly and training with this group.

If you attend these regularly, you can build up a sound practical experience of all aspects of Wicca & Witchcraft.  Remember it is traditional for new Seekers to be trained for a year and a day in Wicca – before undergoing any Coven initiations.  On a personal level, You may use that as a sensible yard stick, and aim for a year worth of ritual attendance, study and exploration – to become a self-sufficient Wiccan. Along the way, you will either develop your own magical / psychic skills, or fine tune any existing abilities.

Outdoor working with primal forces:

These ritual circles take place in public Woodlands or parks.   As they are outdoors, at the mercy of elements (sunshine, storms, snow, fog etc)..  it can be hard at times to gather motivation to attend, or while attending, keep focus (if you are cold and getting soaked).  But remember..  we `real’ wiccans & Witches do have to work hard .. (but take no foolish risks), push our own personal / Psychological boundaries..  in order to gain Mastery of the Self.. and towards a respectful relationship with elements, entities and world around us!

By being outdoors in nature regularly in a ritual setting,  you’ll develop a real magical / psychic attunement & healthy respect to nature’s wild energies, as well as an inner confidence, outdoor ritual experience and dare I say..  empowerment and magical competence… on top of learning/ practising Witchcraft & wicca in the natural wild way it is intended.
