Grounding

This 90 minute class is about stabilizing your energy levels to help you relax and reduce stress as well as learning to regain lost energy and how to enjoy life more. The main theme of this class is how to ground oneself, either actively or passively, to stabilize your energy level and/or compensate for imbalances. Once mastered, the methods I cover in the program will only take seconds to accomplish. The student will receive instruction as well as guided meditation.
When is it important to ground?
Daily, before work or school, to be at your best, energized and ready for the day. Then again after work, to help wind down after the day, making a peaceful transition into the evening.
Before exams, speaking engagements, job interviews or prior to attending a hectic
public place. During emergencies or crisis type situations. Whenever you need to be alert and at your best.

THE SCIENCE OF WITCHCRAFT I & II

As presented by AMY K.
The Science of Witchcraft is based in the Cabot Tradition (founded by Reverend High Priestess Laurie Cabot of Salem, Massachusetts), combined with many traditional teachings as well as Amy's fifteen years experience as a solitary witch. This path is designed to instruct, inspire and empower the student to work independently and is geared to give the student a solid foundation from which they can continue to work independently or seek the direction of group practice safely.
The Science Tradition is rooted in Hermetic Philosophy, which governs the cosmos on the physical and metaphysical planes. It's teachings parallel modern physics and gives the student answers as to why magick works. It is a celebration of self, spirituality, and is a path harmonious with the nature of things as well as the human nature.
In Part I, the student will lay the foundation of the path. This includes recognizing energy and grounding it, learning to use alpha (an altered state of consciousness) in magickal and practical living, increasing self-esteem and will power, passive and active mind travel, protection shields and neutralizing harmful energies, The Hermetic Principles, ending with psychic diagnosis and healing (in alpha) with color. Most lessons include both instruction and meditations. Each class runs from 75 minutes to 2 hours.
Part I- 6 lessons, $180.
In Part II, the student will take on a more active role and become a practicing witch. The student will experience the process of spell writing, consecration of tools and altar set up, exploring forms of divination, circle casting, Moon magick/Astrology, creating a witch's magickal cord and learning the Sabbats/holidays. A graduation ritual will be performed by the student to start them on their path and give them the confidence to work and worship independently.
Part II- 7 lessons, $225. (includes materials for cord)
