We will be exploring the myths and stories behind these goddesses and interact with them using art and dialogue. This workshop will help to provide you with a direct connection to your own experience of the divine feminine.

Aspecting is a pathway to personal encounters with the Gods. It is beautiful and transformative. It can lead us to the deepest, most intimate relationships with the Divine.

In this playshop we will explore techniques and the practice of aspecting as itÕs done in the Reclaiming Tradition. WeÕll play with why this interests us, what calls us, what calls our ego and our hearts. WeÕll step into the practice by considering wards and boundaries, exploring dropped and open attention and other techniques that prepare and open us to receive as well as let go and return to ourselves. And weÕll play with the Divine; that which resides within us and that which can be invoked from without.

Prerequisites: Elements of Magic or equivalent AND Iron Pentacle or equivalent of personal shadow work.

Laura and Urania are longtime dedicants to this practice and have succeeded through trial and error with the Gods, who are often patient and always forgiving.

Why do Witches love Cauldrons? The Druids knew.

Cauldron of Warming: bubbling brew of hearth & sex.
Cauldron of Vocation: the will meets the heart, our work in the world.
Cauldron of Knowledge: pathway to intuition and the Gods

Come and explore the system of psyche and soul, developed by the ancient druids. Much like the chakra system, these cauldrons are a tool for insight into our physical, emotional and spiritual health, and a catalyst for healing.

Using the familiar systems of the chakras and Iron pentacle as our starting point, we will integrate these systems with the cauldrons and make them our own.

We will work with Brighid throughout the weekend, using music, sound, movement, nature and trance to guide us in our journey. Including Brighid's "9 Waves", an ancient blessing for the newly born.

Class size minimum is 8. We must have 8 deposits by April 1 or the class will be canceled.

Join us for the third California Teen Earth Magic retreat, five days of deepening our relations with the Earth and with one another.

We are also planning a Vermont camp August 14-18. Contact us for more info!

Come together with other young people ages 13-25 who care about the world. Group building will be part of our work, and we hope to create lasting connections.

The 2010 camp will also include a mentoring path for youth 19-25.

We'll be doing tarot, habitat restoration, spellwork, composting, labyrinth rituals, singing and music, campfires....

The retreat was initiated by teachers from Witchlets in the Woods family camp, with the support of parents and site-owners. Teachers and organizers from several other Witchcamps (Winter, Free Activist, Vermont, and Loreley) are part of the 2009 team.

We are keeping the sliding scale as low as possible ($99-399), and offer some scholarship and parent-work-trades. Basically, we want any teen who wants to attend to be able to join us. Parents' consent required for age 17 and under.

Contact us if you have questions or suggestions.
