Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit are the forces that form the elements of magic. In ritual space we will explore the magic and the mysteries of each of the elements, practicing and learning the basic skills to create rituals in a supportive sacred container that will end with a last class ritual led by participants. This 6 week experiential class in magic and ritual will be taught in the Reclaiming Tradition by Bramble, Passia, and aquifer.
Learn basic ritual techniques such as grounding, casting & invoking.
Work with the tools and share knowledge about the Elements, the 4 Directions and Centre.
Deepen into the mysteries through trance, chants, spells and raising energy.
Bramble
Bramble is a Reclaiming Witch and Rosen Method Bodyworker. Her magical work centres on depth, presence and the textures of experience as a portal to mystery steeped in symbolism, myth and dreams. Bramble brings magic into everyday lived reality.
Passia
Passia is a disabled BIPOC Reclaiming Witch, Registered Massage Therapist and Teaching Assistant. Her magic is both practical as well as mystical. Her education is in biochemistry and biological sciences, and as such, she sees magic through the lenses of both a healer and scientist and likes to do magic at the cellular level.
Passia's ancestors hail from Trinidad and Tobago (via ancestors that came from India as indentured servants) and Italy. She is a member of the DARC Community (Decolonizing Actions in Reclaiming Community), contributed to the DARC Curriculum and helped with updating the Principles of Unity. She loves to drum and sing and her laughter is contagious.
aquifer
aquifer is a Reclaiming Witch and Radical Faerie. He works with the rhythms and cycles of nature, his voice, and also computers. His magic is queer, playful, postmodern, utilitarian, and improvisational. He meets the divine while singing, drumming, riding ferries, exploring cities, wandering forests, relaxing in bathhouses, laughing, and enjoying exquisite meals. aquifer's ancestors are English, Scottish, and Ukrainian.
