Intro to the Witch’s Eight Paths of Power Workshop: Nanaimo

Join Lady Sable Aradia for an introduction to the Witch’s Eight Paths of Power! In this workshop, Sable will explain the essentials of her course structure and theory, and offer an introductory exercise for each of the Eight Paths as detailed in her book; only this will involve demonstration and hands-on instruction.

The Witch’s Eight Paths of Power are:

1. Intent – What is the essence of intent? How do visualization skills improve your ability to form your magickal intent? What are the essentials of effective magick, and how do you improve those skills?
2. Trance – Dion Fortune said that magick is the art of changing consciousness according to will. Learn about the states of consciousness, how they apply to magick, and how you can practice achieving them.
3. The Craft – Rites, Chants, Runes, Charms & Spells are what we typically think of when we consider “witchcraft.” Learn how magick uses a special language to communicate your desires to the universe, and how your unconscious assumptions can affect your magickal effectiveness.
4. Intoxicants – external substances, from aromatherapy to hallucinogens, cause chemical changes that affect your consciousness. Learn a little about how they do this.
5. Dance & Sacred Movement – Dance and Movement induce trance states that create magickal energy and can be used for magickal working. Learn how to make your own sacred dance.
6. Blood & Breath Control – Controlling your chi controls your consciousness. Learn how to apply this for yourself.
7. The Scourge – Pain is a teacher. Learn how the Hero’s Journey can be applied to your life to gain the most from your life’s painful lessons.
8. The Great Rite – Aspecting the Divine and the use of sex magick are traditional in witchcraft. Learn some of how that all works and practice a little theory.
