The theme of this year’s Boston Pride Parade is “Rainbow Resistance” and the call to stand up for equality, fairness, and justice in the face of prejudice and intolerance is more needed now than ever.
Of course, as Witches and magicians, we have additional tools when it comes to our resistance, as the #MagickResistance hashtag on social media demonstrates. So the Temple’s marching group is making these cards available along the parade route, and the Temple’s Gemini ministry is sharing this image here and on social media for those elsewhere who would like to support our effort.
Work your magick, whether alone or with allies, in whatever manner you see fit. Call upon your divinities, spirits, and ancestors to support you, and then act in accord in everyday life to help bring about the changes that are needed. As it has been written…so mote it be!
The Temple’s Gemini ministry invites all interested marchers to join us on Saturday, June 9th to march in the 48th annual Boston Pride Parade! The theme of this year’s parade is “Rainbow Resistance” and the Temple will be marching to show our support for equality, queer rights, the notion that every being is divine, and that “all acts of love and pleasure” are our rituals.
Please see our Facebook event for details and updates. We will post our line-up time and location along Boylston Street in Boston as soon as we receive it from the Pride committee, usually a day or two before the march, asking marchers to meet us there ready to go! If you’re looking for us the day of the march, head down Boylston Street and look for our banner.
If you have questions or would like to confirm your intention to join us at the Pride march, please email [email protected].
A safe, blessed, and joyous Pride month to all!

The Temple is pleased to announce that online registration for this year’s TempleFest is now open!
Day Passes! In addition to all of the on-site, all weekend options from last year, we are offering a limited number of “day passes” for the event. To access these, input a special registration code that consists of “TF” plus the first three letters of the day, so TFFRI, TFSAT, and TFSUN, for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday day-passes. Note that Saturday is our “family fun day” specifically aimed at families with children who might like to attend the festival for the day.
Lodging: Please note that the TempleFest lodging coordinator will work with you to get you assigned to the lodging of your choice on-site, but that it may take some time to get a response. If you have special accommodation needs, please list them on your registration under “Lodging Preferences.” Your patience with our all-volunteer staff is appreciated.
Event Submissions & Vendor Applications are closed for this year’s event. Please, no inquiries regarding submitting an event or vending at TempleFest 2018. If you have been accepted as a presenter or vendor, you will receive email instructions about registering to ensure your particular needs are taken care of. Please follow those instructions rather than the general registration.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at TempleFest in August!
The Temple, in cooperation with Moth & Moon Studio, is pleased to offer a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to study with a renowned elder and scholar: Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki!
Dolores will be offering her “Village Craft” Witchcraft teachings for the very first time here with us in New Hampshire: Friday evening, all-day Saturday and Sunday, and a Saturday evening ritual. Visit the event page for much more, including an outline of planned topics and details about our guest teacher.
Space for this weekend workshop is limited, so please don’t wait to register! Because of the nature of this event and the need to cover the costs for our special guest teacher to visit us from the UK, registration must be pre-paid and no refunds will be available due to cancellation.
The Temple of Witchcraft appreciates and supports the network of Pagan, New Age, and Witchcraft shops that serve as meeting and entry points for our community. Please support your local retailers, and let them know you appreciate them, too!
