A Hand in the Dark: Psychopomps as Guides in Times of Crisis and Anxiety
Friday March 21, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm CDT
Defined in ancient Greek as the “guides of souls”, psychopomps have traditionally bridged the physical and non-physical worlds. Stemming from a similar root, psychology can be defined as the “study of the soul”, serving to bridge conscious and unconscious awareness. In an age marked by increased anxiety, depression, mental illness, and suicide, this presentation explores the roles and characteristics of these guides through the dark that can offer a sense of direction and hope.

Friday March 21, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm CDT
The ancient Greeks frequently called upon the Muses for inspiration and favor.

This workshop brings these goddesses to life and explores the gifts each Muse has to offer. These gifts include but are not limited to: *Assistance with creative efforts *Astrology *Water magick *Love magick *Protection tools *Divination guidance This workshop includes a powerful guided meditation to meet the Muses.

Healing Wounds, Finding Insight: Using Tarot for Emotional Insight and Trauma Recovery
Friday March 21, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm CDT
This workshop offers participants a unique opportunity to explore the healing potential of tarot as a tool for reflection, emotional insight, and growth. Led by a licensed clinical psychologist and trauma specialist, participants will learn how to use tarot to support trauma recovery in a safe and structured environment. Tarot cards serve as powerful symbols for processing emotions, gaining personal insight, and fostering self-healing. The workshop will introduce specific tarot spreads that are carefully designed to address themes of trauma recovery, emotional awareness, and personal empowerment. Participants will gain practical tools for using tarot in a therapeutic way, without the need for prior experience or sharing personal trauma. To ensure an optimal learning space for everyone, the workshop is structured to be informative and experiential, rather than a venue for processing or discussing individual trauma narratives. The focus will remain on the reflective power of tarot, promoting emotional insight and healing while maintaining a supportive and balanced atmosphere. This trauma-informed approach to tarot is designed to empower individuals to use the cards as a means of personal growth. Through this hands-on learning experience, participants will leave with a deeper understanding of how tarot can be integrated into a self-healing practice, offering insight and clarity for their journey toward recovery.

The Myth of Closure
Friday March 21, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm CDT
Closure: When something uncomfortable happens, we want to know why. We may believe that knowing the “why” will ease our pain. But what if the “why” isn’t clear? What if there’s no “why” at all? This meditative and journaling exercise will help you look at your uncomfortable story as beautiful in its own right, whether or not closure is ever found.

The Twins of Time: Cycles and Lines in Magical Work
Friday March 21, 2025 10:30am - 12:00pm CDT
When looking at doing magical work and making profound change in your life, timing is an important condition to consider. We can only do magic in the present moment, but that moment is defined by all that has come before and what we imagine is to come. That moment is also one station in a great cycle that repeats again and again. This workshop will offer an experiential practice to find ourselves in linear and cyclical time, and use the powers of each to manifest the spiral, empowering us to make change in accordance with will.

Dreaming Practices of the Maker Shamanic Tradition
Friday March 21, 2025 1:00pm - 2:15pm CDT
“The dreaming body is that part of ourselves that is wild and uncontrollable, but houses our totality, or the rest of it, as well as our animal natures, knowledge without reason, seeing without sight - it is the part of us denied a place at the table since birth.” ~ Gary Mills Lorrie Adams will present an overview of the dreaming practices of the Maker shamanic tradition. Learn how Makers understand dreaming as an energy that one can learn to access and control. This will not be a discussion about how to have precognitive dreams, do dream interpretation or attain lucidity in dreaming. The focus of Maker dreaming practices goes deeper than these practices, although it could include them. The intent for Makers in dreaming is to ultimately move beyond the complex imagery of our dreaming minds and into the energy of dreaming itself. We will discuss how Makers seek to tear through the fabric of dreaming, which is made up of ones own reason, or rather the energy of our reason, in order to access what's behind that dreaming fabric.

Embody the Runes!
Friday March 21, 2025 1:00pm - 2:15pm CDT
This workshop is based on her book "The Runes: A Pandemic Journey" and will take us through the 16 younger Futhark runes, their postures, tones, and animal associations. It's great to study them, to use them in divination, or to sing them...but adding the creation of runic postures brings the entire being in alignment with these sacred letter shapes. Taking note of where we feel them in the body and what they bring up for us is a great pathway to spiritual discovery. All levels of mobility and experience are welcome as we stretch and breathe together in runic unity. Books will be available but are not necessary to enjoy this workshop.

Tarot As A Guide for Spiritual Discovery

The cards can lead anyone willing to listen down the best spiritual path for them. It is an endless friend who will hold our hand through all of our spiritual quandaries and lead us to right where we need to be. This presentation will discuss the tarot’s place in modern day Paganism and teach several tarot techniques so that attendees (at all levels of tarot knowledge) will walk away knowing where the tarot is guiding their spirit.

She will help you explore what is collectively known as the mid-life crisis and show you how it is simply a cosmic upgrade when we can meet it with an open heart and a questing mind.

Psychological Magic: Psychotherapy as Healing-Magic In this talk we will explore the practice and process of psychotherapy—or perhaps more aptly named, psychetherapy (i.e., soul-therapy)—through an historical, magical, archetypal, and mystical lens. What are the elements of psychetherapy that make it such a powerful type of healing-magic and soul-magic? For the client and the therapist. How can psychetherapy be engaged in ways that bring healing-magic to all domains: mind-body-relationship-environment-soul-spirit? Does your therapist need to be a Pagan or Heathen for therapy to be magic? Join me—a licensed therapist and Pagan—to explore these questions, and more.
