What is our relation to Mystery and the Mysterious Ones, that is, to Spirit and Spirits? How do we call to them? How do we linger with them, listen to them, love them? How might we embody them, and how might we manifest them in our lives and in the world?
In the third workshop, An introduction to Divine Embodiment, we will draw even more closely with the Mysterious Ones, listening to them for inspiration and inviting them in through aspecting. Aspecting is a magical practice in which a priestess or priest channels the presence of a deity.
This workshop is on April 20, taught by Marcos and Romana and begins at 2 pm,. going until 5 pm.
The location is Homewood Friends Meeting House, 3107 N Charles St, Baltimore, MD 21218-3803, United States
Marcos has lived long enough to have had several incarnations in one body. Some of them: journalist, AIDS activist, teacher, and collectivist. He is a founding member of Baltimore Reclaiming and an initiate of Reclaiming and Feri.
Romana (she/her) is a sober anti-fascist Witch, Priestess, and Heathen; a pantheist, an animist, and a polytheist, depending on the day and sometimes all at once. In ritual, she loves drumming as a form of energy-raising. At home she is usually reading, watching Bollywood movies, or gazing at her cat the way she imagines a parent looks at their newborn child.
The course costs $25 to $50 per workshop, sliding scale. No one will be turned away for lack of funds; scholarships and work exchange are available. We try to balance the need to justly compensate teachers for their labor with our commitment to make our work available to people of all economic levels.
Baltimore Reclaiming is a radically inclusive community of witches who use our magic to bring transformation, justice and healing to ourselves, Baltimore and the world. We are also artists, pagans, healers, activists, priestesses, anarchists, theater geeks, feminists, and other good humans. We see our work as teaching and making magic: the art of empowering ourselves and each other. In our classes, workshops, and public rituals, we train our voices, bodies, energy, intuition, and minds. We use the skills we learn to deepen our strength, both as individuals and as community, to voice our concerns about the world in which we live, and bring to birth a vision of a new culture. We gather, mostly on the Sabbats, to work magic, often for personal healing and also for the healing of our society and planet. We believe that the work we do together in our sacred circles really can change the world.
