Are You Going to Witchcon This Weekend?

This weekend will see the largest online magical conference taking place. From 5 March until 7March (or 8 March here in Australia) over a witches and conjurers from all around the globe will be coming together to share their magical insights, wisdom and spiritual practices that are personally designed to assist beginners, novices and the more experienced alike.

All classes, rituals and performances will not only be livestreamed on Crowdcast, a web-based platform with no need to download an app.  Afterwards they will also be placed in an on-demand library where they will remain for an indefinite period of time (at the moment) so that you can watch or re-watch all that is on offer.

I will be presenting on
Exploring the Shadowy Realms of the Dark Goddess in The Saturn Library on Monday, 8 March at 11.15am (Adelaide time).  I will also be in the Virtual Vendorium showcasing selective LunaNoire Creations items earlier on the Monday at 9.15am. 

Other presenters include Laurie Cabot (Salem's most famous witch), druid Ellen Evert Hopman, Australia's Fiona Horne, Georgi Mishev (who will be presenting on Bulgarian folk magick), Oberon Zell (founder of the Church of All Worlds), Sorita d'Este (owner of Avalonia publishing company), Rev. Paul Beyerl (renown herbalist), and even Silver Ravenwolf.  

A full list of presenters can be found here.  Tickets are capped at 1,000 attendees which includes access to all class presentations, rituals, the Virtual Vendorium.  You can get your tickets here.
