Erotic Power: Sacred Sexuality and Releasing Shame

Thursday February 20, 2025 10:30pm - Friday February 21, 2025 12:00am EST

Step into your power and heal your Sacral Chakra (the gateway to passion and creativity) to access stronger magick. As practitioners, our thoughts and actions shape both our reality and magick. With something as physically, emotionally, and politically loaded as sexuality, there’s often a lot of interference affecting this Chakra. Learn about deities and practices that can help you healthily connect with your sacred sexuality. Come prepared to reevaluate your sex life, and destigmatize pleasure! We will end with an activated meditation to Lilith.

Goetia for Beginners: Calling the Demon Lord Shax

Thursday February 20, 2025 10:30pm - Friday February 21, 2025 12:00am EST

Garden Marquee

Following a brief lecture on the history and theory of goetia I will teach you how to conjure the demon Shax Together, we will oblige him to enter into a triangle, and then request him to teach us further magic. This ritual is safe, easy, and fun. There will be no explicit sexual or violent content, although demons sometimes get a little spicy, and I cannot entirely control what Shax will say. Please do not come to intoxicated or otherwise out of your right mind.

Non Duality and the Perennial Philosophy

Friday February 21, 2025 11:30am - 1:00pm EST

At the core of most religions, there is often a mystical tradition. Some argue that at the heart of all mysticism lies a singular teaching—a perennial philosophy. This workshop will explore and compare mystical philosophy from several traditions, including Advaita Vedanta, Hermeticism, Neoplatonism, and Kabbalah. Students will learn practical exercises to cultivate ecstatic experiences similar to those found in these great mystical traditions.

They Put a Spell on You, and Now You're (NOT) Theirs

Saturday February 22, 2025 2:00pm - 3:30pm EST

Conference Room E

We love movies, TV, books, podcasts, and social media, but are they harming us as much as they are helping us? In this class, metaphysical practitioner Rachel of the Rose and psychological operations researcher Evan Follmar join forces to teach you how these mediums (double meaning intended) help to bring through spells, curses, hexes, bindings, egregores, and spiritual attachments that we unknowingly “consent” to just by turning on our devices… and how you can protect yourself whilst still enjoying the screens and content that you love! In alignment with this year’s theme of Malkuth, this class will help you to root down into discernment, as well as rise up in connection with the Divine to help you stand in your own divine sovereignty in mental, physical, and spiritual health.

Learning practical magic is best accomplished through doing, but first you must pick a goal. Join master magician Clifford Hartleigh Low on a journey learning some of the most essential principles of magical practice, centered on the popular aim of finding that special someone for tonight, or perhaps even forever– and then drawing them closer. Learn about the declarative power, hot and cold attraction spells, effluvial probing, verbal and symbolic bindings, layering and stacking, the secret of the undefined, push-pull techniques, liminality as a tool, the contrasts between the sphere of spirit and the sphere of mind, power aggregation, the metaphors of the materia magica of seduction, the ethics of love spells, the true purpose of magic, and much more.
