The Nature of Magic, Solstice Awakenings Retreat.
This weekend will introduce you to how we can tune into and use witchcraft and magic in the everyday, through learning, making, meditation, tarot, and engaging with our natural environment.
By popular demand we are dedicating a large part of the weekend to the practice of tarot by spending an afternoon in the sun with a beautiful picnic by the river Wye.
The weekend will include complementary morning yoga with Graham that ties in with themes of witchcraft; including long meditation practices, magical chanting, sound meditations and music.
This retreat will be lead by intuitive ceramicist, designer and witch, Blue Firth. Weaving in local elements of craft, history and folklore, Blue uses clay as a medium for her magic. During this weekend, you will use clay ceramic triple goddess archetypes Maiden, Mother and Crone alongside an individual spell; learning how to introduce the elements and ritual into your practice through physical form.
To close the weekend there be a walking meditation in the stunning Welsh landscape. There will be plenty of free time to relax, with an optional trip to Hay-on-Wye (town of books), or to walk along the Wye valley.
We provide delicious seasonal vegetarian and vegan food and refreshments.
Our senior teacher Graham will lead all yoga and meditations throughout the weekend and will be making sure your needs are met, supported by his husband, Matthew (host and chef).
Whether you are hoping to develop an understanding of magic and witchcraft or just to have a fun but relaxing weekend away from the city, wrapped up in the comfort of the Chapel, we have got you covered.
This is a weekend about recharging your batteries and learning new magical tools to use to live in the present and to make new creative friends
