Announcements

This coming May, the Temple is pleased to offer some wonderful opportunities to study with guest teachers here in Salem, NH!

The Pillars of Belief with E. Massey

E. Massey is an author, artist, teacher and practicing Witch. As an author, E. Massey has written articles for popular educational and Pagan and Witchcraft magazines, as well as contributed to many educational curriculums for children. His first book, Casting Creative Magickal Circles independently sold over five-hundred copies. In 2018, E. Massey released The Modern Witch’s Curriculum. This highly anticipated subsequent book combines history, science, and hands-on activities in an easy to follow calendar format. Over the last year, he has also been writing The Little Witch’s Curriculum, a book for parents and children that uses early childhood education theories and techniques to encourage spirituality growth through Witchcraft, Wiccan, and Pagan practices. He also maintains a well-followed blog at his website that covers many Pagan oriented topics.

The Temple is pleased to host “The Pillars of Belief” workshop: Discover how the Hermetic philosophies found in The Kybalion can be related to the modern teachings and ideals of today’s Witchcraft (a topic also explored in our own Witchcraft I course). Explore these “universal laws” and why they are the pillars of many belief systems found around the globe. Learn new approaches to incorporating these ancient teachings into today’s spiritual world through activities found in E. Massey’s book, The Modern Witch’s Curriculum.

Temple founder and Virgo lead minister Adam Sartwell shares a bit about a trip to Arizona for the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show and the fabulous collection of new crystals we’ll be charging in this year’s sabbat rituals, starting with the Spring Equinox!

We are bowled over by the positive response to the announcement of our Temple pilgrimage to Scotland in 2020! Already we have enough registrations to fill all of our planned slots!

However…those spots are not reserved until all deposits are in, so we are starting a wait-list. If there are any cancellations or incomplete registrations among those earlier registrations, that spot will open up for the next person on the wait-list in the order in which they registered. So, if you still want a chance at joining us in Scotland in 2020, make sure to register before registration closes!

Visit the Pilgrimage to Scotland page for details on the trip and to fill out the online registration to be added to the wait-list.
