3012:30Calling White Allies :A Discussion Group Seed WolfeAs the need for social justice and active anti-racism work becomes more important in our circles, creating spaces to have meaningful productive conversations about this work become essential. An important part of anti-racism is white allies meeting and learning from each other. This workshop is not a space to discuss IF the work needs to be done but HOW we are doing it and how we can support each other in it. I look forward to diving into this work with you.

3012:00Introduction to Spiritual Attachments and Spiritual Release TherapyRichard BenackSpirits and their releasement have been universally described for thousands of years. Prior to the eighteenth-century, there was a belief that many physical and mental illness were caused by possessing spirits. With the emergence of modern science, the idea of demons and spiritual possession became regarded more as superstition. But as the limits of science and technology become clearer, this thinking is changing.
0013:00Modern Minoan PaganismDana CorbyModern Minoan Paganism attempts to bring the polytheistic spirituality of Bronze Age Crete forward into the 21st Century, in terms that make sense to modern Pagans.
0015:30Hekate: Goddess of WitchesCourtney WebberHekate is one of the most popular goddesses in modern Paganism...but who is she? Frequently known as a Goddess of ghosts, this liminal entity is also a patroness of fertility, healing, the cosmos, but most of all, Witchcraft. This class will explore the various attributes of Hekate, her history and mythology, and also how she can help Witches, today. Led by Courtney Weber, author of "Hekate: Goddess of Witches"
3017:00Gender and the Gods: an explorationSeed WolfeGender might not be as concrete for the gods as we believe. Many pantheons have at least one god who is genderqueer or gender-fluid. Hermes and Loki being two examples. What might we learn about the gods if we approach them differently? What might we learn about ourselves?? I invite you to explore the unknown universe of the gods outside the lens of the genders we know them through. Come prepared to suspend your disbelief and discover something new about your relationship with the gods.
