ConVocation 2025: Explore and Build Pathways to the Divine

This class will be a lecture and discussion on empaths and how to lay claim your power. We will discuss what an empath is, what kind of sensitivity empaths have, and how to use this power for our highest good. We will also discuss oversensitivity and helpful ways to limit overstimulation.

Join us for a brief discussion and ritual to connect with our healthy ancestors. We’ll set sacred space and invite our healthy ancestors to join us. Please bring any ancestral items or representations to place on the altar for ritual. Also, please bring any offerings you would like to leave for the ancestors. We will also have offerings available for people to give.

Discover the profound connection between earth and sky through movement. In this transformative dance experience, we will explore Malkuth's grounding energy and the soaring spirit of Shekhinah. Through a fusion of modern dance, belly dance, and burlesque, you will learn to balance your physicality with your divine essence. Let your body be the bridge between heaven and earth as you root into the power and rise into your potential. Discover the power and grace of the feminine spirit as we explore four captivating choreographies to: Rob Zombies' "Boom, Boom, boom, Donovan's "Season of the Witch", Jacob Banks's "Chainsmoking" and Valerie Boussard's "A Little Wicked." Enhance your dance with the magical energy of a Broom or a staff as one of these will be incorporated into one of the dances.

As a working shaman for the over 40 years, I know how difficult it can be to find yourself strangely aware of things that no one else is. Being Chosen by the spirits is difficult, regardless of the culture we are born into, but it helps if there is at least a basic understanding that spirits are real and that some of us are more directly engaged with the spirits. I am currently writing a book by this title, with the intention of providing more of a spiritual context for those in the West who find themselves in this predicament. This workshop will address some of the basic difficulties of becoming a shaman in a non-shamanic/non-animistic culture.

Sean will introduce the manifestation of energy, layers of the aura, and how to sense both. Energy exchange and manipulation of that energy will be done in a small group setting to illustrate how we can affect the world with emotion, color, and other forms. This class will also explore the magic we put out into the world, and attendees will be encouraged to have more day-to-day awareness of this as they move through the physical world.

Highlights:
* Learn how to sense the aura and what the various layers of the aura are
* Learn how to exchange energy with others
* Learn how to alter the energy in a group setting
* Learn how to sense color, emotion, and other manifestations of magic.

Suitable for any level of practitioner, this class will complement your pre-existing path or tradition.

Womb Shamanism in the Rose Lineage tradition is a deeply feminine, deeply embodied path to the Divine. All are invited to explore the power and potency within their own sacred wombs in this experiential playshop. (You are truly welcome here - beings of all genders have an energetic womb space.) We’ll chat about the sacred, sordid history (and disparagement) of womb work, play with some practices to enhance our personal power and connection to the divine, and explore what womb sovereignty looks like in the modern age. Mature audience only, as topics may include sacred union, sacred sexuality, and the sacred whore.

Imagine fulfilling not just one, but 10 or even 100 desires in a single ritual. Join us for an advanced shamanic practice with the Shamanic Spiral ritual, designed for those with significant experience in manifestation and energy work. I will guide you through this powerful technique, showing you how to make it possible. The ritual involves walking a spiral made of small stones, though adaptations are available for those unable to walk. This ritual is suitable for experienced magicians and shamans looking to amplify their manifestation abilities. Participants will learn advanced techniques for multiple wish fulfillment, practical skills for creating and using energy spirals, and methods for adapting the ritual for different physical abilities.
