The Awakening Series: An Intro to Ritual Work: The Elements

Ritual work is, simply put, prayer with action.  Creating a spell bottle or charm, those are rituals.  Celebrating a handfasting, yup... a ritual.  But SO is a wedding.  So is saying the Rosary.  So is stirring the pot clockwise while thinking loving thoughts as you cook for your family. 

Many refer to people who practice ritual as "witches".  But what exactly does that mean?  

Truth is it means something different for just about everyone.  It does NOT mean worshiping the devil or eating children. 

It generally means a person finds divinity in the natural word. When you're in-tune with the natural world you can learn how to harness it's energy to manifest your highest self.  We call the first glimmers of this "awakening". Right now there are tidal shifts in the universe that are awakening a lot of folks and they don't quite know what to do about it. 

Have you felt this glimmer?  Or are you curious about just what witches do? Maybe you want to do some spell work but you're afraid to try.  

In this series Melissa Musante, the owner of Spirit Mercantile and 10th+ generation witch, will explain the basics in a safe, welcoming, and positive environment where no question is stupid and everyone with an open mind and love in their hearts are welcomed.

The Elements: January 10th: 10am-Noon

The ancients knew there was something divine about  earth, air, fire, and water.  Consequently almost everything has an elemental correspondence and the element and quite literally the cornerstone of most nature based practices. 

In this session we'll examine each element and through a series of exercises connect with each one in turn.  Then once we understand our personal connection to each element we'll talk about ways to work with them.
