This is part workshop, part roundtable discussion. Join a Pagan leader who, after 30 years, emerged from the broom closet in 2017. Together, we’ll work through the nuances of staying in and out of the broom closet, one foot in or entirely in. We’ll explore what it means to live an authentic Pagan life while being part of the larger secular community and in business. What will this mean when discussing it with your family, friends, and others? We'll also touch on your Title VII rights in the workplace. Please come with questions and prepare for an interactive discussion of living your authentic Pagan life.

Queer people undergo many unique rites of passage in our journeys to become our authentic selves, from coming out to taking our first dose of hormones to celebrating chosen family. How can we honor these important milestones with a magickal ritual in a way that’s personal, profound, powerful, and affirming? In this workshop, we’ll look at techniques and ideas for potent rite of passage rituals for a wide variety of queer magickal practitioners, and end with a guided meditation for participants to find more ideas to craft their own rituals.
