Totemism is a path of knowing the true self, a way of deep reflection, through understanding those essential animal energies of the human spirit. Explore the tradition of Modern Totemism with it’s co-creator and the author of the 2019 book The Modern Totemist, Stephanie Brown Discuss the nature of totems, the structure of Nine Totems within every person used in the tradition, and how to work with totems to improve your life, your magickal work, and your understanding of yourself.

The Consequences of Magickal Action: Aftercare and Healing
Friday May 9, 2025 9:00am - 10:15am CDT
St. Joseph's Room
This workshop will explore methods to deal with bad reactions or injuries sustained in ritual, when magical work sours, or in outright attacks. Quick and simple diagnostics will be presented to choose a response, if one is needed. The middle- and long-term impact of magickal action will also be addressed so you can remain healthy and strong for more years. Wear and tear ignored is often more damaging than injuries or acute situations. Rest, healing, and aftercare are the key to staying power for the long haul.

Collections as Mastery
Friday May 9, 2025 10:45am - 12:00pm CDT
St. Ann's Cottage #1
In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Europeans from the highest to the lowest echelons displayed their mastery of the world through Kunstkammer (Cabinets of Curiosity), Maps, collections, and Libraries. To possess and display items suggested a mastery over their contents. In this session, we will examine the ways in which occult and cultural objects and texts conveyed mastery and power in real and imagined ways. In the second part of the class, we will discuss how these practices have influenced our own collections, displays and altars.

Shamanic Journeying to Connect with your Totems
Friday May 9, 2025 10:45am - 12:00pm CDT
St. Joseph's Room
Within the magickal tradition of Modern Totemism, the nine animal totems we each carry within us are our connection to the foundational aspects of magick. And yet, it can be challenging to connect with our totems, especially in the beginning. How can we learn what our totems are and how can we bring them forward? One method is Shamanic Journeying, a type of active meditation ritual that helps one access the spiritual worlds both within and without. Join Stephanie Brown, co-creator of Modern Totemism and the author of the 2019 book The Modern Totemist, and learn how to Shamanic Journey. You will be guided through a basic Shamanic Journey ritual to bring one of your totem animals forward. We will also discuss Shamanic Journeying as part of neo-Shamanism and Core-Shamanism to give participants the basic knowledge they need to begin incorporating Shamanic Journeying into their spiritual practice.

On Spirits and Phantasms: How To Work With Them, and Why We're Afraid of Them
Friday May 9, 2025 1:30pm - 2:45pm CDT
St. Joseph's Room
We live in an enspirited world. This is a truth known to the witch and sorcerer alike. But are spirits something we should fear, or befriend, or avoid? How might we understand spirits better? And how can we begin to engage with, or strengthen our work with them? In this class we will discuss the nature of animism and apply it towards an understanding of the otherworld and its inhabitants. We will explore the ways in which spirits have been viewed historically as well as ways we might un-learn ideas which stand in the way of our success with spirit work. Drawing upon twenty years of experience with spirits, Matthew will discuss a common sense approach towards spirit work, as well as when/if we should fear them as well as methods of protection, and insights on conjuring, communicating, and contracting with spirits in our magical work.

Multiverses in Hermetic Macrocosms and Microcosms
Friday May 9, 2025 3:15pm - 4:30pm CDT
St. Ann's Cottage #1
The connection between macrocosms and microcosms is a central tenet in Hermetic Alchemy with “As Above, So Below” governing the practices of both historical and modern alchemists. In this session we will examine the most commonly understood relationships in historical models as seen in the writings of Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, John Dee, and many other scholars through the connection of prayer (preparation, meditation, life practices) and the main work (performing the experiments and manipulations). In the second part of the class, we will explore ways to create these connections in our lived practice in the modern world to efficiently and effectively harness alchemy.

The Witch of King's Cross and "Black Magic"
Friday May 9, 2025 3:15pm - 4:30pm CDT
St. Joseph's Room
Join Ashara Mayim to explore the extraordinary work and life of trance artist and occultist Rosaleen Norton. A true embodiment of the spirit of the Divine Rebel, she lived her life with fearlessness and honesty most people can't even imagine. Roie was a devotee of Pan since childhood and is best known for her volume, "The Art of Rosaleen Norton with Poems by Gavin Greenlees," though she explored deeper mysteries through "Thorn in the Flesh: A Grim-Memoire." She is a powerful Aquarian ally for those who wish to live their lives with truth and bravery, in accordance with their divine Will, and powerful force who feel ostracised or outcast from their mainstream communities. She was often ostracised, criticized, and even targeted by law enforcement for her attempts to share her visions and occult experiences with the world. Explore the work and life of the Witch of King's Cross and meditatively enter and experience her piece, "Black Magic."
