Saturday 23rd February
11:30 – 12:30 James North: Rosicrucian Magic, Elementals, and Fairies
One of the forgotten keys to the Western Mystery Tradition is the role of nature spirits. Occult Orders like the Golden Dawn or Crowley's A A claimed lineage and inspiration from the Rosicrucians of the 17th Century.Yet the traditional importance of elementals and fairies, and their connection with Angels and Sacred Magic, have often been overlooked. This workshop shows how, by following the indications in certain grimoires, folklore and Rosicrucian texts, we can develop a contemporary magic attuned to nature. We will conclude by celebrating a Rite of the Elements, and learn how it can be applied to our daily lives and surroundings.
12:30 – 1:45 Lunch
1:45 – 2:45 David Rankine: Living the Hebrew Alphabet A Qabalah Masterclass
The influence of the Qabalah in the Western Mystery Tradition is well known, but only a small amount of practice centering on the Tree of Life has been perpetuated in the post-Golden Dawn revival. This workshop will look at the inherent powers of the Hebrew letters, drawing on techniques from earlier sources and emphasising the practical use of the Mother letters, Doubles and Singles. This workshop will involve a lot of intonation, and will begin with instruction in vibration of Hebrew letters and divine names to lay the ground for the subsequent work on personal transformation, attraction magic and strengthening the energy body. If there are sufficient attendees (22 needed) we will also perform a rare 231 Gates working.
2:45 – 3:45 Zeke Appolyon: The Devil You Know: Modern Satanism’s Changing Face
3:45 – 4:45 Mima Cornish and Thea Faye: Ritual Techniques and Personal Praxis
This workshop is to teach you a solid foundation of basic ritual technique to enable you to develop your own individual rituals away from, but appropriately influenced by, the Occult texts. We are aiming to get people composing a ritual around the conferences theme, which we will facilitate by the end of the workshop - to illustrate how a meaningful ritual can be created in a very short time when its necessary to do so. Mima and Thea have been running rituals together for years for the Sacred Space at a family camp running twice a year in Wales. You can see the work that we are now embarking on together om neptunesdaughter.co.uk We both feel very strongly that inspiring people to distinguish for themselves the difference between real magick and misinformation will move them towards a simpler, more genuine personal praxis.
