WORKSHOP INFORMATION
SIGIL MAGICK
Sigils are probably one of the most common kinds of magick we all see in the modern world, but no one seems to notice. Sigil magick is the art of using symbols and imagery to manifest a specific intent or outcome. They are a wonderfully useful form of magick.
During this workshop we will be looking at:
What sigils are
Ways to create sigils(which there are a few different, fun ways)
How to use sigils
And also create your own sigils
NEW MOON
Join on us this workshop to learn how to use the new moon phase to bring all the things into your life that you need. During the workshop you will learn how to honour the new moon and learn different methods of using this lunar energy in your witchcraft. We will also go into ways of how to manifest to your full potential during this moon phase. After learning more about the new moon you will take part in a group new moon ritual as the workshop is perfectly timed for using the lunar energy that is present at this time.
ORACLE & TAROT CARD READING
Maybe you have attended a Card Reading Course and learnt the meaning of the cards and how to read with them – and just want more practice. Why not give this workshop a try - come and check out how quickly you can become proficient in card reading, or just experience how you can learn how to read the cards.
In this workshop you will:-
Obtain a basic understanding of reading cards and get some experience with different spreads.
Get a better insight of what the cards mean and develop your skills at the same time.
Get experience on using all the cards in the decks
Explore their meaning
Learn easy but powerful strategies and techniques to interpret the meaning of the cards
Begin to develop your individual relationship with them.
CRAFTING THE WITCHES ALTER
Creating a Witches Altar involves crafting a personal sacred space filled with objects designed for meditation, spells, rituals, divination and connecting to deities. The altar serves as a focal point for a witch's practice, allowing them to harness their energy and intention for various purposes. When setting up an altar, it's common to include items such as offering bowls, incense holders, spell candle holders, elemental bowls or plaques, decorated jars for moon and sun water, mirrors, representation of deities, a manifestation box, and elemental candles. Participants are also able to take home everything they create for their altar.
WITCHES SELF LOVE
Embrace your inner witch and learn how to inject a little self love into your life using witch craft. There is a goddess inside each and every one of us and this workshop will teach you practical ways to feel that feminine energy in your every day life. We are all guilty of not making time for ourselves or not being the kind person to ourselves that we are to our friends and family but this workshop gives you the opportunity to change that. We will discuss different rituals we can do daily and of course will do some group rituals for self love and you will take away a booklet with all the information and prompts to keep you on your self love journey.
MEDIUMSHIP TOOLS & HOW TO WORK WITH THEM
Tools of Mediumship covers many things that Mediums use to assist them when giving a reading, both psychically and spiritually.
This workshop will show you many of these tools and how to use them effectively; we will only be giving a taster of each (as there are so many).
There will be opportunities for you to follow up on any tools you are drawn to by undertaking them in more depth; as all techniques can be developed.
SPELLCASTING
Spells can be formulated by a variety of methods, but the core and key to spell casting; is pure, clear and focused intentions. During this workshop you will learn the most commonly used different types of spells that modern witches can use in their witchcraft journey. But more importantly you learn how to add extra power into your spells. If you are a practitioner of magic, timing your spells or rituals with things like the moon phases, or the correct day of the week can be compared to swimming with the current. Spells cast at the appropriate time will obtain added oomph, as it is easier to go with the flow than against it. After learning all you need to know about spell casting to make your spells more effective we will perform a ritual with perfect timing and use some of the knowledge you have gained during this work shop to get the most out of the ritual.
TEALEAF READING
Join us for an enchanting journey into the world of tea leaf reading.
Delve into the rich history of this ancient tradition and explore the intricate art of interpreting tea leaves.
Discover the symbolic significance of different patterns and shapes within the tea cup and delve into the geometry of its specific areas.
In this immersive experience, you will develop your skills in interpreting symbolic meanings and nuances, getting the opportunity to have your own cup read.
Engage with fellow enthusiasts as you practice and refine your techniques by reading each other's cups.
SCRYING
Do you have a vivid imagination?
As a child, did you look up at the clouds and see shapes and pictures?
Do you see images in the flames when gazing at a log fire?
Do you find yourself drifting off into your own world when you are looking at a lake of water?
If your answer is yes, then you could have a latent ability to scry. Even if scrying comes easily to you, it takes ages to master and can’t be rushed.
Learning how to scry takes plenty of practice, patience and perseverance. You also need to develop trust in your senses and be receptive to what they are telling you. This workshop will give you an insight into scrying and the opportunity to experience it.
RELEASING THE PAST
There are many spells that can be used to release the past and welcome in new positive energy. In this workshop you will learn different ways in which you can do this.
We will work on three ways of releasing the past including
a letting go fire ritual
a releasing spell, and
a cord cutting spell.
All of which are extremely powerful but can be performed by any witch of any ability. You will learn how to perform all three methods and get the chance to perform each one together in the workshop. That’s three opportunities to release things from the past and you can decide whether to focus on one area of your life or three different areas depending on how much releasing you wish to do. While releasing the past, it is always a good idea to invite fresh positive energy into your life to replace the negative and you will learn different methods of how to do this too.
WORKING WITH SPIRIT – THE WITCHY WAY
Exploring the realm of spirits often goes unnoticed due to a lack of understanding or apprehension. Identifying the presence of a spirit can be challenging, but establishing a connection with your guide can be relatively straightforward.
Collaborating with your guides can be incredibly beneficial for protection, as well as for gaining energy and knowledge, as they are present to support you on your journey. Guides, land spirits, ancestors, and deities all offer their assistance, but some may require a form of payment, as nothing is truly free.
Approaching them without proper preparation can leave you vulnerable, so it's crucial to nurture a strong bond with your witch guide to ensure your safety when interacting with other spirits.
Let's delve into the nature of these spirits, how they can manifest around us, and how we can engage with them, as well as how to connect with your witch guide. Establishing a connection with departed souls and higher beings can be immensely fulfilling, elevating your spiritual practices to new heights.
Let's explore how to cultivate these relationships.
PARANORMAL EQUIPMENT
When participating in paranormal events, it's crucial to employ the right tools to elevate the experience. Understanding the proper way to use these tools is key to maximizing their impact. We will look at some of the tools you can use when you are attending a paranormal event, and show you some great ways of using them.
WITCH’S RUNES
Like witches themselves, you will find the Witch's Runes eclectic. They belong to anyone who chooses to make use of their wisdom. There are 13 Witch's Runes, as there were traditionally thought to be 13 witches in a coven. Although there is often fear and superstition surrounding 13, witches use this number for its power and influence. These Runes are not the Viking Runes (Elder Futhark) you're used to seeing. These are Witch's Runes. There are only 13 to know instead of 24 so if you're a beginner to divination then this is a wonderful workshop to come to and start your journey (especially if you're a witch)
During this workshop we will be:
discussing the 13 runes
the history of them
their meanings
making a set for yourself
Practising on one another
ABUNDANCE MAGIC
Let’s be honest who wouldn’t want a little more abundance in their lives. In this workshop we will discuss different types of abundance spells and rituals before getting into some practical magic. You will learn the basics of a money bowl and then get a chance to make your very own money bowl to take home with you. You can then refresh this every month to keep abundance flowing into your home. We will also make an abundance spell jar and perform an abundance candle magic spell within the workshop. This will be a very hands on workshop and is great for witches who want to channel their energy into becoming more abundant in any aspects of their life.
MEDITATION MAPPING
Join us in this workshop where we will explore the numerous benefits of meditation, relaxation techniques, connecting with your inner self, and practicing mindfulness. Our main goal is to equip you with tools to make your meditation practice more accessible by creating a personalised map to guide your focus during meditation sessions. This workshop is designed for individuals of all skill levels and does not require any artistic talent.
We will introduce various methods of creating your meditation map, allowing you to cater to your unique preference. In addition we will also have guided meditation sessions to help you practice and integrate your newfound techniques.
WITCHES SHIELD
Ensure that you don't neglect the maintenance of your shield, as this could leave you vulnerable to potential harm from individuals with malicious intentions. It's absolutely essential to remain vigilant and keep your guard up at all times! You're invited to join The Wonky Witch for an immersive session that will delve into a range of methods and incantations designed to shield yourself and repel negative energy.
This workshop will cover a variety of topics, including:-
The importance of self-defense
The theory of protection
The practice of protective spells
The crafting of safeguarding items.
BESOM MAGIC
Besoms have a long history and have been associated with various rituals and practices, particularly in the realm of witchcraft and magick.
During this workshop you will learn the history of the witches besom, the magical powers of a witches besom, how you can use your besom in your own witchcraft rituals and then you will get to decorate your very own besom to take home with you. This workshop is perfect for the witches who also enjoy the “craft” element of witchcraft.
MEET YOUR SPIRIT GUIDE
Spiritual individuals in both ancient and modern cultures have sought guidance from their spirit guides. In modern times, people turn to a higher awareness for support and direction. You don't have to be a shaman or deeply evolved in your spirituality to achieve this. It's an amazing experience to connect with your spirit guides and understand their role in helping you. While we may realize that we've chosen to live on this planet to learn specific lessons, there are times when we need the unique guidance that only our spirit guides can provide. It's reassuring to know that we are never alone and that our guides are always there to support and help us on our spiritual journey. This course will teach you how to obtain that guidance.
The purpose of this workshop is to help you personally connect to a higher intelligence and discover the path that you're meant to walk, with the necessary support. Spirit guides are our friends and allies, and we need to learn to trust them. The best way to do this is by understanding more about them and their history. But how do we do this?
We will delve into the following topics during the workshop:
What are Spirit Guides?
Who are your Spirit Guides?
How to use various tools to connect with your guides
Meditate to meet your Spirit Guides
How to overcome obstacles when trying to connect with your guides
Understanding how your guides can assist you in your daily life
POPPET DOLL
The magickal poppet is one of the most commonly used implements in sympathetic magic, which follows along on the theory that “like creates like.
Join us to learn more about this fantastic subject and the opportunity to make one of your own. A poppet doll is usually used to represent a person and when most people think of a poppet, they automatically think of the Voodoo doll, thanks to this item's negative portrayal in movies and on television. However, the use of dolls in sympathetic magic goes back several millennia. They can also be used to possess the doll with a spirit that's connected to the owner to help them in their workings. During this workshop we will discuss the different types of Poppets throughout history and how we can use them within our practice today. As well as making one of your very own poppet dolls.
ELEMENTAL MAGIC
Elemental magic is also sometimes referred to by the specific element that was being used, such as fire magic or earth magic. Each element is extremely powerful and can help you harness extra power for your spells. In this workshop you will learn the basics of each element and how to use the different elements in your spell work. You will learn how to represent the elements in your sacred spaces and what element can represent magically. You will also learn how to call the elements in (casting a circle) before your spell work. Casting a circle with the elements is something every witch can benefit from. It helps to establish a sacred space, provides a protective barrier, amplifies spiritual energy, and helps you to connect to Divine energy. We will also perform some practical spell work using each of the different elements. These will be simple spells or rituals that you can repeat at home and although are simple are extremely effective. We will practice fire, earth, air and water magic within this workshop.
BEGINNERS TRANCE
Trance covers various aspects of the following :
(dependant on time we will visit as many different facets of trance as possible
Trance
Trance speaking
Trance communication
Trance healing
Trance Art
Trance writing
Working in the altered state
Physical Mediumship
Plus many more things
To attend this circle it is preferable to have previous experience with mediumship, spirit energy and spirit guide work, and be able to work with your spirit guide(s). This workshop is suitable for complete trance beginners to people who wish to improve their trance skills.
Trance is not just mediation, it is allowing spirit to blend with your energy so previous experience working with spirit and having full trust working with your guide is a must.
