This is being taught by the amazingly magickal Nikki Murphy!

Intro to Witchcraft (6 part class)

In this 6 part class we are exploring some basics of Witchcraft. This class won’t teach you any specific spells or procedures but will instead help give you some resources to make you a more confident witch. We are going over alters and sacred spaces, pulling energies from all of the elements and using that in spells, your sacred spaces and your daily self-care. We will discuss some strategies to find a spell for your individual need or to write one, how to gather supplies, how to time a spell, and what to do if it seems the spell isn’t working. Next we will talk about keeping a book of shadows and the importance of documenting your spiritual journey and all the ways you can do that; from ceremonially keeping a journal of handmade paper you anoint before every single writing session to having a voice memo on your cellphone where you recall your dreams. Then, we will dive into learning and accepting what magick is natural to you and how to play on your personal strengths and have a community of people with different specialties to help you in your practice. Lastly, we will talk about my favorite part of being a witch- making some magick in every single day. Stir some intention into your coffee, heal your own body in the bathtub, and know you’re creating a sacred space when you sweep the floor. We are all individually called to this craft, and all of the ways we need to practice will be a little bit different; through this class I hope to expose you to what I know works for the witches I know and to help give you some ideas and confidence in your own craft so you can find out what works for you. **************************************** Each class will be offered about 3 weeks apart on a Wednesday evening from 5:15-7pm. ****************************************

Intro to Witchcraft Part Two: the Elements and How to Use them in Your Practice In this session of Intro to Witchcraft we are discussing all five elements. Earth, air, fire, water and spirit. How can you incorporate all of these in your sacred spaces? How do the relate to the symbol of the pentagram and casting a sacred star/ circle? How do you connect to each naturally? We will also discuss some of the ways that having a basic knowledge of the elements can give you a strong foundation in a lot of witchy practices. For example, astrology, tarot, crystal therapy, and our chakras all have a close relationship with the elements. Knowing a little bit about each of the elements will make studying any of these magickal outlets a little easier to understand.
