The Dark Goddesses-
There is a profound beauty in the darkness, the unseen, the mysterious.
In a world where we think we know everything, where the current paradigm of the world tells us that everything is brightly exposed with nothing unknown, choosing to still commune with possibility and the admission that there is indeed some mystery remaining in the darkness, is vital for our balance and harmony as humans.
The Dark Goddesses are misunderstood because they are not evil or death but instead they help us transform our shadow and illuminate the path forward. If we decide to seek or even engage with these shadowy unconscious aspects of ourselves, these darker parts, perhaps we can refine them, perhaps even reshape them into something exquisitely useful and beautiful. Perhaps we could grow to even love them because they are the wholeness of who we actually are. The Goddesses of the Dark can help us.
We will-
– Explore 6 of the “Dark Goddesses” and their lessons and guidance for us. These
will include Hekate, Kali and Morgan Le Fae.
– We learn about how to create a magical and devotional practice with Goddesses like this.
– Learn how work can be supported with the Lunar and Seasonal cycles.
– Create a spell or ritual for one of the Goddesses to cast.
Two Zoom classes with email support in between. Notes supplied. Zoom classes will be recorded for your convenience.

Every year, early in the year I do a special oracle reading day so that folks can get good actionable insights for the year ahead. I know many of you are already enquiring about the date…so here it is: January 13th.
On this day I do 30 minute readings via phone, Skype or Zoom with one of my Oracle Decks for you for only AUD$110 (a discount of $40).
I only do this once a year, for one day and bookings are of course limited,
As many of you know, I have been running a more comprehensive and deeper year-long programmes for the last few years because I believe that to make lasting positive change in our lives, we need time to do so.
For 2022, I will be leading an exploration of the Dark Goddesses and the power they can bring to our lives.
Why the Dark Goddesses?
Firstly, there is a profound beauty in the darkness, the unseen, the mysterious.
In a world where we think we know everything, where the current paradigm of the world tells us that everything is brightly exposed with nothing unknown, choosing to still commune with possibility and the admission that there is indeed some mystery remaining in the darkness, is vital for our balance and harmony as humans.
Secondly, the Dark Goddesses are misunderstood. They are not evil or full of death but instead they help us transform our shadow, reveal our power and illuminate the path forward. If we decide to seek or even engage with these shadowy ill-formed unconscious aspects of ourselves, these darker parts, perhaps we can refine them, perhaps even reshape them into something exquisitely useful and beautiful. Perhaps we could grow to even love them because they are the wholeness of who we actually are. The Goddesses of the Dark can help do this and with pleasure and joy as they have done for thousands of years.
Thirdly, the Dark Goddesses spur us into taking action. These are big energies that encourage and compel us to participate in bettering our own lives.
Who would benefit from this magical year?
Anyone who wants to release, re-focus and renew. Anyone who is interested in the power of the Goddesses and their mythos. Anyone who wants to get unstuck and to clear away what is in their way. Anyone looking to travel down a pagan pathway and who is specifically interested in witch’s skills.
This is a practical programme, meaning there are tasks and actions you must engage with to get the most out of this, so if you can’t dedicate 2 hours a month to the work (outside the zoom class), it’s possibly not for you.
We will:
– Explore 12 (or more) of the “Dark Goddesses” and their lessons and guidance for us.
– Each month we learn more about ourselves through the framework and mythos of these darkly divine deity.
– Learn how this deeper work can be supported with the Lunar and Seasonal cycles as we travel through the year.
-Each month a witch’s skill, corresponding to the Goddess we will be working on, will be offered for you to learn. These will include writing chants, using herbs, potion making, enlivening talismans and spellcasting techniques.
12x 1.5hr Zoom classes with email support in between. Notes supplied.
Zoom classes will be recorded for your convenience and available to you ongoing. Confidential Facebook page for group discussion is optional.
