You are invited to a series of workshops on the underpinnings of Wiccan practice. The Sunday classes will focus on an introduction to specific practices such as Divination, Shamanism and Qabala. Wednesday classes will focus on practical work such as casting and calling a circle and using modalities within castings.

Each workshop session will last approximately 2 hours in length with Sunday sessions going from 10-Noon and Wednesday sessions going from 7-9. These workshops take place in a private home so you must email or call to register and to receive directions. Please contact Karen at mujetdebois@fork.org or call 215.839.8195 for more information.

Becoming

Jul. 4th, 2010 09:26 am

The process of becoming, is something we all do every day. The question is becoming what? Learned? Thinner? Alive? You fill in the blank. I've have spent the last several years working on becoming: a student and teacher, a resource, myself and as of last Friday June 25th a 3rd Degree Initiate of the ASW.

I have to say that all of the aspects listed above are facets of what make me a whole being. And that is also what becoming is about. I have spent years studying subjects like Qabala (which is a never ending study), the differences between forms of divine embodiment, the mechanics of sweat lodge, the list goes on and on. Each new esoteric facet and area of study links back to personal growth, and magickal community. They have also led to self-examination; I have found myself in beauty and in ugliness; and I have found myself begin to become a walker between worlds, balancing the realm of spirit within and the need to function in the everyday world without.

As I sit here a week past the actual physical event, still in the energetic and revelatory afterglow. I find myself grateful for those events and people who have been catalytic in getting me to this new place. Externally, I am the same, internally and spiritually growing and evolving. I know that by achieving this elevation, it is the end of a cycle but not the end itself. It is a milestone, a marker, it is the beginning of new leg of the path of growth, change, integration and becoming more essentially who I am.
