Reclaim Your Crown When Life Knocks You Down - Unleash the Power of Your Inner Tarot Queen, Angela Kaufman teaches readers how to align with the powers of the archetypal Queens from the Tarot for personal empowerment during times of change and uncertainty.  In this workshop for women and men on a Magickal path, learn how to manifest like a Queen.  Both women and men can learn to harness their Divine Feminine power for successful manifestation.  By embodying the four Queens, your personal power is enhanced, and so is your Magick!  Tarot experience is not required.  Learn how to harness the four core powers we all possess and align with nature to amp up your ritual practice.  Although we are working with the Divine Feminine energy embodied by the Tarot Queens, this workshop is not gender specific and all are welcome.  We will use a combination of discussion, instruction, and guided visualization as well as fun exercises involving the Tarot Queen cards.  This workshop can enhance a new or blossoming path working with Tarot cards, and can also serve as a doorway into understanding archetypal energy for the Tarot novice.

Leah Guy is an intuitive transpersonal healer, spiritual teacher, speaker, and media personality.  She is the author of The Fearless Path: A Radical Awakening to Emotional Healing and Inner Peace.  A survivor of rape, addiction, anxiety, and other traumas, she has been an energy Light Worker for over 20 years, helping others reclaim their life.  Leah is a sought-after inspirational speaker who has appeared on major media outlets as an expert on intuition, meditation, Chakra balancing and energy medicine, emotional healing, and the mind-body connection.  Her down-to-earth and often humorous approach makes her one of the most accessible leaders in the field.  Known as The Modern Sage, she owns the Modern Sage brand of spiritual care products such as Rock & Roll Chakra Oils and Aura Sprays.  For more information, please visit her here. Sunday, 10.00am - 12.00pm - Tara-Love Maguire Baneful Plants and the Poison Path "There are poisons that blind you and poisons that open your eyes."  Some plants are pretty to look at, sweet to smell, and bursting with the colors of life and laughter.  Along the crooked path though, here grows another sort of greenery entirely: with venom, fang, and claw.  Herein lies your ticket to the Sabbat, Witches.  Herein lies the lost key to your fight.  Learn about the path of the poisoner, as well as some of the more utilized plants, their folklore, and how to responsibly steward them in your home garden. Tara-Love Maguire has been a practicing witch for over 30 yeas, on a path which has been crookedly influenced by Isobel Gowdie, Marie Laveau, and William S. Burroughs.  Growing up as a weird kid in and around the New Jersey Pine Barrens, she found witchcraft within the tales and shadows that dwell there.  She co-hosts the podcast Down at the Crossroads with her sweetheart, Christopher Orapello, and together, they founded Blacktree Coven, a traditional witchcraft coven which exists in the heart of southern New Jersey.  Her first book, Besom, Stang, and Sword, co-written with Christopher, is available wherever books are sold from Red Wheel/Weiser Books. Sunday, 1.00pm - 3.00pm - Christopher Orapello Traditional Witchcraft: History, Theory, and Practice Traditional Witchcraft exists alongside Wicca and other modern systems of witchcraft, but what is it?  Find out about its history and place in the modern witchcraft revival, what it has to offer, and the new directions it can lead you in.  Learn about the idea, theory, and practices behind it and how it differs from more ceremonial forms of modern witchcraft and systems. Christopher Orapello is an arist, witch, and animist with a background in western occultism, ceremonial magick, Freemasonry, and has been on his journey for over 25 years.  He co-hosts the podcast Down at the Crossroads with his partner, Tara-Love Maguire, and is a signature artist with Sacred Source, a leading producer and distributor of ancient deity images in North America.  After a growing desire for a more locally-based form of witchcraft, he and Tara founded Blacktree Coven in 2014, where they set out to forge a modern approach to Traditional Witchcraft for a new era of praxis.  His first book, Besom, Stang, and Sword, co-written with Tara, is available now wherever books are sold from Red Wheel/Weiser Books.   Sunday, 3.00pm - 5.00pm - Amy Blackthorn Aromatherapy for Religion and Ritual In this offering with Amy Blackthorn, author of Blackthorn's Botanical Magic, we explore the ritual and aromatic applications for essential oils in our religious practice.  All faiths are welcome to explore the hidden potential in their hearts and noses.  From scented rosaries to the tang of fresh Florida water to the lingering odor of frankincense, all scents explored will help the student delve into the hidden realms of scent in prayer, meditation, and rituals of all kinds.  With the realms of essential oils becoming more and more a part of our daily lives, it becomes easier every day to bring these plant guides into harmony with us daily.  Why not develop a connection between the scent and the way you wish to feel?  Now you can.  By blending your own essential oils you can create your own custom scent and intention and set that intention with a focus for a new future.  Also included in this course will be a practical demonstration on how to test the quality of essential oils using household items, to know you are getting your money's worth.  Amy Blackthorn has been described as an "arcane horticulturalist" for her lifelong work with magical plants and teaching of horticulture.  She incorporates her experiences in British Traditional Witchcraft with her horticulture studies.  She is a Clinical Aromatherapist and is ordained through Order of the Golden Gryphon.  Amy's company, Blackthorn Hoodoo Blends, creates tea based on old Hoodoo herbal formulas.  She lives in Delaware.  You can view Amy's tea shop at blackthornhoodooblends.com.
