Weaving the Web: Tools

Join us in-person or online for our weekly Community Night: an open, cross-tradition discussion space where we learn, share, and build community together. We gather every Wednesday evening for discussion, meditation, ritual nights, and more, with time to socialize before and after.

Schedule:
We start at 6:00pm for casual social time, then at 6:30pm we begin the main discussion (and stream it live on YouTube). After the formal portion ends, we usually keep the Zoom call open a bit longer for chatting as folks head out.

This week's topic: Tools
There are many tools commonly used in Wicca and witchcraft, including wands, athames, candles, crystals, incense, and herbs. Each has its own unique purpose and symbolism, with correspondences to color, deities, zodiac signs, elements, and more. Wands and Athames can be used to direct energy. Candles can be used just to “set the mood,” but they can also represent Deities or the Elements. A candle can even be the entire focus of a spell or ritual, being a physical form to represent and contain the magick, and then becoming a projective tool when burned to release the energy. Crystals are also commonly used in magick, whether as physical representations or for their own healing and other energetic qualities. Incense and herbs can be used to purify a space, to add energy to a working, or to aid in trance work.

Format: discussion. You're welcome to participate as a skeptic, a master, or a curious seeker.

In-person: Weavers of the Web, ATC (Lansing)

Can't make it live?
Secure recordings of discussions are available to Patreon subscribers at the Bobbin level and above (ritual recordings at the Balanced level and above.)

What to bring (optional but helpful): a notebook, water, and a grounded body. If you're joining from home, set up a cozy ritual space (with candles, incense, etc.) so you can drop into the practice more easily.
