A new year has arrived and as such, I would first like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who has supported my various endeavours throughout 2022 - whether it has been by purchasing one of my books, something from my LunaNoire Creations Etsy store, stopping by to say hello at one of the many markets that I was at, participating in an event or workshop that I had presented or hosted, undertaken a healing or had a reading with me at the Isian Centre of Metaphysics, or even subscribing to my YouTube channel. Even if you have read my blog, a hear felt THANK YOU.
Due to personal commitments, when it comes to offerings, with only the Journey into Freedom with Kali email-based sadhana (spiritual journey) scheduled to be taking place this month (commencing on Sunday, 8 January 2023 so there is still time to register if you are interested - more information about this 21-day journey with this Dark Goddess found within the Hindu pantheon can be found here.
One thing that I have been setting up is a semi-regular newsletter that will contain information about upcoming events, presentations, appearances, and the like, as well as other insights that I find of interest that relate to magical, mystical and metaphysical matters. If you read this blog, then you can subscribe to my newsletter here.
I have also been busy making a number of courses available online. The platform I am using is Udemy which provides students with unlimited access and where they can study at their own pace.
The courses that I currently have available are:
Exploring the Dark Goddess consists of some three and a half hours of video content
Dancing with the Hindu Goddess Kali Ma consists of five hours of video content
Celtic Goddesses and Warrior Queens consists of some four and a half hours of video content.
Udemy offers an assortment of courses, however as some are better than others, it is recommended that a level of discernment be used when choosing.
WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS

As mentioned earlier, the first event for 2023 will be the 21-day Journey into Freedom with Kali sadhana (spiritual journey) that will commence on Sunday, 8 January 2023.
Every day for the following 21 days, you will receive emails that will assist you in exploring this rather complex Dark Goddess of the Hindu pantheon. You are invited to study at your own pace as you will receive devotional practices that will enable you to connect with this powerful goddess on a deep soul level in order to bring about ultimate change.
Further information as to how you can register for Journey into Freedom with Kali can be found here.
February will see the annual Yemaya Blessing of the Waters taking place on Monday, 6 February 2023. Regular attendees of this event will notice that it will be taking place a month later than normally. This is because of personal commitments making me unavailable until February. As per usual, this event is "gold coin donation" and is open to the public. More information about this event and what you are suggested to bring can be found here.
I will also be offering a couple of workshops in February. House Cleansing and Protection workshop will be taking place on Saturday, 11 February 2023 and will contain a practical component where participants will be making a number of items for use in their own home. There are limited places available, so bookings are essential. You can secure your place here.
On Saturday, 25 February 2023, Journey through the Chakras workshop will provide participants with a detailed exploration through the seven major chakras (energy centres) as well as a number of minor chakras. Incorporating both tradition yogic teachings with Western metaphysical concepts, you will also discover how each chakra relates to aspects of your personality, undertake a powerful chakra cleansing and balancing meditation, as well as exploring how to use sound, colour, crystals and even gentle exercises to unblock your chakras and allow your energetic power to flow more freely.
If you are interested in chakras, energy or personal healing, you might be interested in this workshop. The degree of foundational material will also be beneficial for anyone trained in various energetic healing modalities.
Further, as this workshop will form a module of the Metaphysical Healer's course that will be made available from 2024, the opportunity for a prior learning credit will apply.
You can secure your place here for the Journey through the Chakras workshop.
There is still time available to submit an article, poetry, artwork or even ritual to the proposed anthology, Re-Visioning the Wheel of the Year, as the deadline has been extended until 31 March 2023.
It has been over ten years since I released Dancing the Sacred Wheel and as such, this proposed anthology is hoped to expand upon the concept of working with the sabbats and other seasonal festivals in the Southern Hemisphere beyond the contemporary witchcraft or pagan format.
If you are interested in contributing towards this unique anthology, more details can be found here.
Blessings, Frances
