Earth Magic - the ability to connect with natural seasonal rhythms, the elements, plants and the Earth herself, and become allies with them. Students will learn how to communicate with all the above energies, and use their personal power, intention and will to create positive change for themselves, the Earth and all her creatures.

Initiation Ceremony - At our last class, participants can be initiated as a Green Earth Ally or Green Witch (student’s choice of title). This class is open to people of all spiritualities, as we can all connect with Nature regardless of our beliefs.

Students will learn:

• The Eight Natural Holidays of the Year, including history and meaning
• How to do a basic ceremony
• The nature of the elements – Earth, Wind, Fire, Water
• How to tune into the natural intelligence and consciousness of Nature – the elements, plants, etc. - and learn how to communicate with them
• How to utilize our above-mentioned allies in Nature for healing and assistance, as well as discover how we can help them.

Tools explored will include – communicating with plants, elements and the Earth, intuition, manifestation, protection, ethics, setting intention, using will, using herbs and other magical tools, and more.

Optional projects might include: Making a medicine bag or amulet, creating an altar, doing a ceremony of protection for your home, making a vision board, etc.
