From 7pm-9pm GMT

Crafting Ritual Series 1 of 3.

In this three part series across the year, learn how you can build a personalised and unique approach to crafting public and private ceremonies for your community and your field.

Drawing on her extensive work and experience as a celebrant and leader or ritual and ceremony for small groups and public ritual, Hannah Sanders will help you build your own personal approach, from working collaboratively, finding the right place, honouring the spirits of place and creating a meaningful and transformative ritual.

The first part in this series explores initiatory or beginning rites, Rites of Welcome. Do you want to design your own wedding or a baby naming ceremony? Do you want to start a village festival, or a ritual for a seasonal celebration? From welcoming a new season, a new job or a new phase of life, stepping across a threshold to a new mode of being is at the heart of many of the rites of passage we mark. In ceremonies of initiation, marriage and aging, folklore and custom gives us a wealth of creative material to allow us to craft meaningful ceremonial experiences for small and large groups.

You will learn:

  • To establish rapport with place and people prior to rite.

  • Set up the space, with both mundane and magical skills

  • Craft a ceremony that reflects the land’s character and respects the desires of the folks present

  • Form and flow of good ritual sequence

  • Amplifying the senses through acts of beauty and grace

  • Offerings and gifts and managing exchange

This series is created for people who are developing their magical work to be in deeper service to the outer community in their field. It is however, open to all.
