Delve into the realm of the fae to learn of the magic of glamour and allurement. Many associate Beltane with maypole dances, flower crowns and fertility magic, but many forget that it is also the time of year in which the veil is thinnest between our world and theirs. Traditionally, on the first of May, people would go out into their yards and collect the fresh dew of the morning. This was said to cause fresh youthfulness to those who applied the dew to their faces. As witches, learn how to enhance and utilize the magic of Beltane to create spellwork and concoctions to aide in faery magic. Join us to learn more about the folklore of Beltane. Please bring a small vial with you to the workshop.

The concept of the ‘Witch Power’  is a common theme in what has been called ‘traditional witchcraft’. This  current of magical  energy characterizes the lineage of the witch and connects us to the ancestors of witchcraft who continue to assist the development of the Craft from the Other Side. We will discuss the mythos of this often-misunderstood power as well as delve into techniques and practices to help us cultivate this power in a balanced and healthy way. Practices include:  
  
• Soul Alignment  
• Activating the White Flame  
• Kala  (Purification)   
• Opening the Gates of  Hekka  
• Crossing the Hedge

While many religions and spiritual paths will deny the dark, Witchcraft is a path that embraces both light and shadow. We recognize the healing power of the darkness and understand that –far from being a thing of evil—darkness is simply that which is normally unseen. Witches strive to understand that darkness, a path made all the more difficult by religions that would forbid personal access to the divine, and so we must seek these forbidden mysteries on our own, often in secret. Drawing from Storm’s latest book, we will talk about various aspects of traditional witchcraft that are often ignored by polite Pagan society: working with demons, casting and breaking curses, the art of spirit possession… and even perform a simple rite to tune in to our own inner darkness, that we might illuminate our inner life.

The powers offered to the witch by the denizens of the otherworld are potent, but they do not come without a price. On the road to Faery we must confront our shadow, lest we become enslaved by it. This road is treacherous, but fortunately there are maps. Folklore describes initiatic patterns for journeying deep into the inner planes and –drawing from the ancient tale of Tam Lin, we will encounter the dark Faery Queen and wrestle from her those parts of us that have been stolen away by our own fears and reclaim our power. We will then journey again, to encounter her in her bright aspect in the pattern set forth by the tale of Thomas the Rhymer, travelling through the rivers of Tears and Blood, in the hopes of receiving a blessing from the shining realm.
