Spirits and Ghosts

Are you missing the feel of a cold breeze; the chill down your spine? The sound of steps down a darkened hallway, wings of bats in the moonlight, and the whispers on the wind? **It’s time to share Ghost Stories!** This event is geared towards those with tales of experiences from the great beyond. Come with an open mind and a story of your own, and we will together explore and hold space for sharing experiences and embracing the spooky side of life…. And death! We will provide popcorn – but please feel free to bring a spooky treat of your own to share with the group! Additionally, you can also bring a blanket or something cozy to sit on while we share. Event cost: $5

What is mediumship? Depends on who you ask. Have you ever had an experience you can’t explain? Maybe dreamed of events before they happened or swore you received information from someone or something that wasn’t there? Have you ever felt presences around you or gotten internal messages that didn’t originate from you? If you are interested in exploring or working with the spirits of your ancestors, guardian spirits, or other entities, this is a safe space to help you learn and connect to those energies/spirits. We are a community group open for all levels of mediumship. There is no set curriculum, this space is for learning, group practice, energy work, sharing different types of mediumship and experience, and meditation. Come and See. This class is $20.

***Spirit Island*** is a complex and thematic cooperative game about defending your island home from colonizing Invaders. Players are different spirits of the land, each with its own unique elemental powers. Every turn, players simultaneously choose which of their power cards to play, paying energy to do so. Using combinations of power cards that match a spirit's elemental affinities can grant free bonus effects. Faster powers take effect immediately, before the Invaders spread and ravage, but other magics are slower, requiring forethought and planning to use effectively. In the Spirit phase, spirits gain energy, and choose how / whether to Grow: to reclaim used power cards, to seek for new power, or to spread presence into new areas of the island.
