Circling with the Wheel of the Year
Venue: Mystical Soul Academy
Who exactly is the Dark Goddess and what makes a Goddess "dark"?
It is common to perceive this somewhat confronting aspect of the Divine Feminine as the Hag, the Crone, the stirrer of the Cauldron of Knowledge. After all, it is the Dark Goddess who is said to wait for us at the end of our days. Known as Baba Yaga, Cerridwen, Frau Holle, and Hekate, this is the common image of the Dark Goddess that many of us have. But there is more to her than this.
In this class you will explore this often misunderstood, ignored or even fearful aspect of the Divine Feminine and the many different categories that she appears within mythology.
This first gathering of the Adelaide Wisdom School will commence from 9am to 5pm and include an assortment of classes from Crystal Ball reading and astrology, to instruction in the runes, an introduction to human design, shadow work and much more.

Working with the Dark Moon
Venue: Mystical Soul Academy
Join us in a special afternoon dedicated to Hekate of the Crossroads, that includes a mini workshop detailing how Hekate has morphed in her presentations over time', instruction on the Rite of Her Sacred Fires, and personal participation in this international rite that focuses on celebrating the mysteries and magic of Hekate.
The afternoon will close with the sharing of a celebratory feast.
The Dark Moon is a mystical time. It is when the sky is at its darkest and as such, it invites us into stillness, enticing us to settle into that sacred silent pause that resides deep within each of us. Step into a space of restful nourishment by the window of potentiality, and breathe in the calmness.
Incorporating the cosmic energetics of the astrological sign of Taurus, you are invited to journey into the mystical magic of the Dark Moon through sacred breathwork, inner journeying and stillness meditation. You will also be making a talisman to assist with the incoming energetics of the upcoming New Moon.
Immerse yourself in the sacred seasonal round, the Wheel of the Year, that follows the journey of the sun, the God (divine masculine), and the natural ebb and flow of the cosmos.
Explore the origins of each seasonal festival, the folk traditions and sacred mythos before discussing how these can be adapted to the Southern Hemisphere.
We will also explore the number of faux pas that circulate today, how these originated, and why the discerning witch or magical practitioner should dismiss them.
Utilising techniques that stem back to at least the 17th century, craft your own protection bottle, or transform it into a magical guardian.
The Four Powers of the Sphinx ~ To Know, to Will, to Dare and to Keep Silent ~ have long been the cornerstones to successful magic. Discover how they are found within witchcraft as well.
