Reynoldsburg OH: Meet Your Badass Ancestors
Erzulie's Conjure Garden 6565 East Livingston Avenue, Reynoldsburg, OH, United StatesJoin me at Erzulie’s Conjure Garden for a 2 1/2 hour workshop that will help you work with your ancestors. Ancestor veneration is a key component of many spiritual/occult practices, but very few people know where to start. Often, misunderstanding of these concepts leads to cultural appropriation and less than successful magical efforts because of the disconnect between the practitioner and Spirit. This workshop is an introduction to genealogical research as well as an introduction to making your magic more powerful through working with your ancestors. We’ll also discuss sensitive topics about problematic ancestors that you may have in your bloodline. Meet Your Badass Ancestors is open to anyone, regardless of cultural/ethnic background or religious belief system, who is interested in learning how to work with their ancestors in a spiritual context. This class is held both in-store, at Erzulie’s Conjure Garden (6565 East Livingston Avenue, Reynoldsburg, OH) and online via Zoom Video Conferencing. If you plan to take the class in the store, please indicate this by selecting the location option when you order the course. You will, however, get the same web links to take the course as our online students. All students MUST register via the Erzulie’s Conjure Garden website – seating is limited, so be sure to reserve your spot today!

Columbus, OH: Spiritual Decluttering
WitchLab 1185 W.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to declutter your spiritual life by freeing up emotional space, embracing the self, and learning to set boundaries. After all, once you get rid of the garbage, you’ll make room for the good stuff, and you can consciously and mindfully open yourself up to all of the positive things you’ve been missing out on.
