We are gathering for a rare candle workshop of mine at the new studio at Kaarli pst 11, where we will learn to mold magic candles by hand, using natural beeswax and whatever you can find in the witch's cabinet. Tickets are 15 Europs per person, sold at Fienta: https://fienta.com/et/intuitive-hand-molded-ritual-candle-workshop-by-witch-of-tallinn You don't need a lot to start making your own ritual candles for manifestating, magic, subconcious proframming or meditating. Jus natural beeswax from a local bee farmer, Alice at Kajamiku Farm, your own two hands and an intention. I will guide you how, but I will not be telling you what to do. We will be practicing your intuition and channel information from the Field to programme your candle. And, of course, I will teach you what's the point of candles and rituals, and how to actually use these for powerful transformation and changes. I would know, I sell these as a professional witch and people are quite happy with them. Some extra rare ingredients like snake skin, hedgehog fuzz etc. will cost extra, but otherwise most of my herbs are included in the price already. Normal price is €15 per person. Members of my Telegram group chat get a -€5 coupon. If you'd like to learn more about the Magical Tallinn Telegram (and coupon) text me on instagram: [www.instagram.com/witch_of_tallinn/](https://www.instagram.com/witch_of_tallinn/) And why not check out some of my signature candles for sale: www.etsy.com/shop/WitchOfTallinn

This month's prompt concerns the idea of the “warrior philosopher” (seemed appropriate in these times)--that is someone whose understanding of violence, power, and justice is forged through direct experience of war. We are looking at Major General Smedley D. Butler, a highly decorated U.S. Marine raised in a Quaker (pacifist) tradition who later became a prominent critic of American militarism (there is a wonderful biography of Gen. Butler called "Gangsters of Capitalism") Butler's argument in *War Is a Racket* (1935): that many U.S. interventions were driven less by national defense than by corporate and financial interests, with Butler portraying himself as an enforcer for business and Wall Street. We can consider the moral ambiguity of his insider critique—whether complicity strengthens or undermines credibility and also consider some of the concrete reforms he proposed (e.g., “conscript” capital before soldiers, restrict the military to coastal defense, and have only those who fight decide on war). Butler’s life arc clearly changed from pacifist upbringing to warrior to antiwar crusader—and asks whether true understanding of peace requires firsthand knowledge of war, and what that implies about the cost of suffering. So do we need to suffer to understand suffering? Do we have to experience war to appreciate peace? As one more question: in the movie "A Few Good Men" Jack Nicholson's character says that "you have the luxury of not knowing what I know" so do most of us go through life oblivious to real violence and suffering? See you at Drunken Philosophy!

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
