Passing on the Magic 

Have you ever wondered why Witches cast a circle and acknowledge the four directions and the four elements, Fire, Water, Earth and Air, or why they use a wand or the Athame'? 

      This full-day, hands-on workshop, covers the origins of the Circle, the Wand and the Athame'.  This presentation utilizes items collected from ancient sacred sites, photos, and authentic ritual tools, combined with Pagan myths told in the old (shanu) oral tradition style, to reveal the complex origins and the underlying secrets contained within the creation of the Sacred Circle, the Wand, and the sacred blade called Athame'. 

In addition to the presentations, there will be lots of open discussion and ample time for questions and answers. 

Passing On The Magic is the extended version of the workshop presented at Pagan festivals across the country, and delves far deeper into the mysteries presented.
