The Will of Magic: cultivating willpower and spiritual fitness for pagans and magicians.

Saturday July 18, 2026 9:00am - 10:00am EDT

Ravinia A

Few things are as important in the practice of the esoteric arts as the cultivation of our most fundamental instrument: the spirit itself. In magic especially, the development of a strong spirit is essential. Spiritual health forms the foundation that supports and sustains the magical will. At times, the body may fail us and the mind may dull or decline. The spirit, however, need not do either. It can be strengthened and exercised just as the body can be.This workshop will introduce spiritual fitness from a uniquely pagan perspective; teaching methods for gaging your own spiritual fitness level on any given day, simple practices to strengthen your spirit, cultivating magical willpower, and a whole-soul approach to leading a magical life.

Deepening the Bond with Your Animal Companions Through Telepathy

Saturday July 18, 2026 10:30am - 11:30am EDT

Ravinia A

Animal communication is a natural ability within us all and one that can help you to understand your animal companions on a deeper level. It offers meaningful insight into behavioral challenges, emotional needs, or possible sources of discomfort. Most importantly, it strengthens the bond of love and trust between you and the animals who share your life. In this workshop, you’ll learn how intuitive listening can reveal the subtle messages your animals are always sending. Telepathy is not a replacement for veterinary care, but it can beautifully complement your understanding by helping you sense their feelings, needs, and perspectives. You’ll explore practical tools for quieting the mind, opening the heart, and reconnecting with a skill that humans have carried for millennia—one still used by many Indigenous cultures to communicate with wildlife in respectful partnership.You’ll also discover how love, compassion, and trust in yourself are essential parts of this process. Developing telepathic communication begins with honoring the bond you already share and allowing your natural intuition to reawaken. As you deepen your confidence and connection, you’ll cultivate a richer, more harmonious relationship with your animal companions—one built on mutual understanding, presence, and genuine heart-to-heart communication.

Thou Art God/dess

Saturday July 18, 2026 12:30pm - 2:00pm EDT

Ravinia A

“Thou Art God/Goddess” falls from our lips automatically and the litany of ritual moves forward, but do we hear and understand this phrase intimately? What reminds us of our relationship with the divine? Is it, truly, a relationship? We have looked into the eyes of our people in circle and easily said those words, but then they fall forgotten when we look at ourselves. In this class we’ll develop the power of these words and develop something new and personal to carry with you. But what real meaning do they hold for you, tired at the end of the day or checking your finances twice? Do we believe ourselves – in our hand-me-down jeans and old T-shirts – that we are the God/dess spoken of in circle? Join me as we explore a facet of the intimate connection with deity and with ourselves. Please bring a notebook, drawing/sketching implements for exercises.

We’ll gather energy to bless and set free what no longer serves us. Are you ready to embrace change? Are you excited to step into your healing power? If so, come along! We’ll chant, we’ll move, and we’ll discover the joy of releasing what limits us. Let’s embark on this journey together, transforming the Corpse of Burden into a source of strength and resilience!
