The Italian Practice is an exploration of Italy’s rich folk traditions and the quiet ways they continue to shape the modern world. Drawing on Honni’s italian heritage, cultural history, and lived practice, this event looks at how folk and occult traditions were never separate from everyday life—but woven into it.
Guided by Honni, we’ll explore hereditary and adopted practices, the Cult of Diana, Stregheria, the Italian witch hunts of the 1400s, and the lasting influence of Italian mythology and folk magic today. This is a space for curiosity, context, and connection—where history, culture, and practice meet.
Meet your presenter
⭐️Honni Mooy-Cox⭐️
Honni has spent years expanding her personal practice and education through her time at The Page and Cup. This time cultivated a deep love of the natural world, traditional practices, and the human desire to connect with the unknown.
“The combination of my Italian heritage with my passion for cultural history and folk practice, has resulted in my fascination of the way Italian folk and occult practices have influenced the modern world and finds itself deeply rooted in the practical elements of day-to-day life.”
✨ Come with a curious mind, and a sense of wonder, leave inspired, connected, and carrying a deeper appreciation for the magic woven through history and everyday life. ✨
