Sunday March 7th, 13:00-17:00pm. Central Cardiff location (please email Soror Kim at kimhuggens@yahoo.co.uk for venue details)

This is the second in the series of workshops exploring Hermetic Magic techniques. Last session we looked at the Kabbalah and the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram to form a solid basis for further work and understanding. This session is devoted to the classical four elements and their application in Hermetic Magic.

We’ll look at the historical development of the categories of the four elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water, and their correspondance over the centuries to various aspects of our world, e.g. human characteristics, activities, and bodily functions. We’ll examine how they are invoked and worked with in a ritual setting, their purpose in magic, and their symbolism.

Most importantly, we’ll be introducing the four elements as symbols for our own psyches, and using the technique of scrying the Elemental Planes. We will end this workshop by scrying the Elemental Plane of Earth and discussing our results.

The Hermetic Magic Study Group is held the day directly after Tamion’s next round of Minerval Initiations. There are rugs and floors to sleep on for those who are attending the Minervals and travelling a distance – please email Soror Kim at kimhuggens@yahoo.co.uk to arrange this.

As usual, please bring some snacks to the workshop to share – snackage makes Hermetic Magic so much better!
