Young Urban Witch Workshop: Talismans and Sachets

This is a an evening for younger Londoners, art students and musicians from the DIY and warehouse scene. Treadwell’s is hosting these to introduce this community to the basics of a wild, free witchcraft. Please note it is for people under 30 who are curious about the witch’s path and magic grounded in a feminist outlook.

This workshop is on Jupiter Magic, the planetary force of wisdom, justice and good fortune which runs through all of nature. Rebecca will teach you Jupiter’s mysteries, symbols and powers. The artists will relish the Jovian images in the history of magical art, and the writers and actors will, we hope, appreciate his poetry. We will also look at his seals and sigils. And how to work with him? For the practical side of the evening, you will be making and consecrating a magical herb sachet and a wax talisman in the style of European folk magic.

No experience is expected – just a sincere interest and a friendly attitude:

All sexualities and gender identities welcome

Quiet folk as well as outgoing folk equally welcome

Workshop time is 6.30 pm to 8.45 pm. Please arrive by 6.20, as late arrivals are disruptive

Maximum sixteen folk per workshop so everyone gets personal attention and we can connect well
