This Months Focus: Beginner Crafting

Class One

The Foundations of Spellcasting

Spellwork is often one of the first things people associate with witchcraft, but it is also one of the most misunderstood. This beginner friendly workshop is designed to separate myth from practice by exploring the core principles that form the foundation of meaningful spellcraft.

Together, we will look beyond spell recipes to understand the purpose behind intention, symbolism, correspondences, timing, ritual, and magical tools. You will learn how these elements work together, why they matter, and how they can be adapted to suit your own unique practice.

We will also explore one of the biggest misconceptions in modern witchcraft: that you need expensive tools or elaborate supplies to practice. Meaningful magic has no budget requirement. Some of the most powerful workings can be created with everyday household items, natural materials, or objects that hold personal significance. Your intention, creativity, and understanding will always be more valuable than the price of your tools.

Rather than teaching a single “right” way to cast spells, this workshop encourages curiosity, critical thinking, and personal exploration. You will gain the confidence to understand why a spell works, how to thoughtfully build your own workings, and how to approach spellcraft with intention instead of memorization.

Whether you are completely new to witchcraft or looking to strengthen your foundations, this class offers a welcoming space to ask questions, explore ideas, and begin building a practice that feels authentic to you.

No prior experience is required. Just an open mind and a willingness to learn.

Class Two

Tarot: The Basics

Tarot is one of the most recognizable tools in witchcraft, but it can also feel overwhelming when you’re first starting out. This beginner friendly workshop is designed to help you build a strong foundation by exploring the structure of the deck, the meanings behind the cards, and the principles of reading with confidence.

Together, we will explore the Major and Minor Arcana, the four suits, court cards, and the symbolism that gives each card its unique meaning. You will learn practical techniques for interpreting cards, asking meaningful questions, and developing your own reading style without relying solely on memorization.

We will also take time to explore some of the most common myths surrounding tarot. Do the cards predict the future? Can you buy your own deck? Is there a “right” way to read the cards? Together, we will separate fact from fiction and discuss where many of these beliefs come from, helping you approach tarot with confidence and an informed perspective.

Whether you have just purchased your first deck or have one collecting dust on a shelf, this workshop offers a welcoming space to ask questions, practice simple readings, and begin exploring tarot in a way that feels approachable and meaningful.

No prior experience is required. Just an open mind, a willingness to learn, and a tarot deck if you have one.

Class Three

Magic Tools

Walk into any metaphysical shop or browse social media, and it can feel like you need a collection of tools before you can begin practicing witchcraft. This beginner friendly workshop is designed to help you understand the purpose behind some of the most common magical tools and how to use them with confidence, intention, and practicality.

Together, we will explore candles, herbs, crystals, journals, incense, altar tools, and everyday household items that can be incorporated into magical practice. Rather than focusing on what you should own, we will discuss why these tools are used, how they can support your practice, and how to choose what feels meaningful to you.

We will also talk about one of the biggest misconceptions in modern witchcraft: that meaningful magic requires expensive supplies or a perfectly curated altar. Magic has no budget requirement. Some of the most effective tools are already in your home, found in nature, or carry personal significance. Your intention and understanding will always be more important than the cost of your materials.

Whether you are just beginning your journey or looking to better understand the tools you already own, this workshop offers a welcoming space to ask questions, explore possibilities, and discover how magical tools can enrich your personal practice.

No prior experience is required. Just an open mind, curiosity, and a desire to learn.

Class Four

Crystals and Herbs

Crystals and herbs have been used in magical and spiritual practices for centuries, but knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming. This beginner friendly workshop is designed to introduce you to the foundations of working with these natural allies in a practical, approachable way.

Together, we will explore some of the most commonly used crystals and herbs, their traditional correspondences, and the many ways they can be incorporated into magical practice. We will discuss how to choose crystals and herbs with intention, how to care for them, and how they can be used in spellwork, meditation, rituals, and everyday practice.

We will also explore some of the common myths surrounding crystals and herbs. Do you need rare or expensive specimens? Do crystals have to be cleansed in a certain way? Is there only one correct correspondence for each herb or crystal? Together, we will separate tradition, personal practice, and modern misconceptions while encouraging thoughtful exploration.

And yes, even that cool rock you found on a hike can be magical. Meaning and intention are not determined by a price tag. Some of the most meaningful tools in a practice are the ones that carry a personal story or connection.

Whether you are starting your first collection or simply want to better understand the materials you already have, this workshop offers a welcoming space to ask questions, build confidence, and discover meaningful ways to incorporate crystals and herbs into your own practice.

No prior experience is required. Just an open mind, curiosity, and a desire to learn.
