Led by Carrie Kirkpatrick and Caroline Wise in Highgate, North London,
Saturday 11th December 2021, 10.30am - 6.00pm
Join us for an exploration of the winter goddesses as we approach the shortest day and the rebirth of light as the great wheel turns. They spin their magic as the year turns, as icy fingers spread across the land, the earth is bleak and the trees are bare. They govern women’s crafts and concerns, witchcraft and divination, and oversee the return the sun in the Northern lands, heralding the promise of warmth and abundance to come.
Queens of Winter, dwellers in the mountains, and intermediaries between the realms of the living, the dead, and the spirits. We’ll be looking at several aspects of magical winter figures, including Frau Holle – also known as Old Mother Frost and in various guises such as Perchta and Holda – and snow queens who have inhabited folk and fairy tales through the centuries. Discover the goddess of the World Tree, the star fairy goddess of fairy tales, and harness the magic to ignite your wishes for the year ahead.
With talks and discussion, visualisation exercises, divination, and ceremony, our usual crafting aspect: winter magic spells, scents, mulled w**e, good cake, and good company.
This workshop is held in a private house enabling us to light a Yule fire, and there are cats!
Come and meet the goddesses of the Winter Witches...
