What's Witchy this Weekend?

With all of the jam-packed Pagan events in the area, CapitalWitch presents you with our "staff picks" of exciting upcoming events. Nearly all of our staff will be out and about covering as many of these fabulous events as possible. We hope to see you there!

All Weekend
"Your Divine Work", workshop with T. Thorn Coyle. Yours truly will be on site covering this event.
Special note: We have heard many lamenting not being able to attend this due to scheduling conflicts. Because of this, we want to let you know about a special lesson program offered by Thorn. From their press release:

Join author and mentor T. Thorn Coyle for Fiat LVX!, a bi-monthly video series designed to inspire deep thinking, explore different magickal concepts and teachings, and cultivate a deeper spiritual practice.

For a $20 monthly membership fee, you will have access to two professionally produced videos each month. The first installment will examine a different spiritual idea as it directly relates to our lives; the second video will guide you through the steps of putting that concept into direct experience. A forum led by Morningstar Mentors and Thorn will enable you to ask questions, delve into your experience with other participants, and hopefully inspire us all to keep practicing! Twice monthly practice prompts will support and further the work.

Topics include: Becoming the priestess, able to mediate the space between the Twin Pillars of yes and no, push and pull, light and dark. The power of Integrative Magick that enables us to bring all parts of life to bear on our great work. Aligning the parts of our soul, connecting our animal, human, and divine natures. The series will grow and expand over time, facilitating our own growth and expansion.
