About this Event
Explore the mystery of initiation through the Descent of the Goddess. Reenacted in many witchcraft traditions during initiatory or seasonal rites, discover the seven fold meaning of the Goddess' descent to explore the magick of death, rebirth and love. Understand the pattern of initiation, of reaching a new level of consciousness and through the rebirth of the Goddess, become “free from fate.” Compare the seven gates through which she passes with the seven gated castles of Anwnn in Welsh myth, the alchemical operations, the ancient planets, the chakras and the Miracle of Bread in traditional craft. Experience an intense journey through the seven gates to experience your own rebirth and return. Learn what you must surrender to be reborn. Based on Christopher's newest book The Living Temple of Witchcraft Volume I: The Descent of the Goddess.
Presented by Christopher Penczak. Christopher Penczak is a modern Witch working in the Temple of Witchcraft tradition and community he helped co-found. His practice focuses on the intersection of Love, Will, and Wisdom as an ethos for today’s Witch, and focuses upon relationships with the plant realm, the patterns of astrology, traditional occultism, and the use of trance in the Craft. He is the author of many books, including the award winning Temple of Witchcraft series, The Plant Spirit Familiar, and The Mighty Dead, as well as the co-owner of Copper Cauldron Publishing. Christopher keeps an office in New Hampshire and sees clients in-person and online for readings, healing, and personal consultations. His vision is of an evolving Witchcraft culture making magick accessible to all, yet preserving the heart of the mystery.
