Wicca & Witchcraft is a Pagan mystery-religious Path that includes worship of the divine as as a masculine Horned God & a feminine Triple Moon Goddess (and many other deities), works with wild energies of the 4 Elements Air, Fire, Water, earth, and uses ritual magic & spellcraft for empowerment and bettering of our lives.
In this 1-day outdoor (woodland based) course, Mani Navasothy- Gardnerian High Priest with 25 years Craft & Coven experience- will teach and guide Students in how to work with Horned God & Moon Goddess (and other deity forms), as well as seasonal myths, wheel of the Year, Esbats & Sabats, and invocations to deities.
