About
Emerging through roots anchored deep in this land came a vision of many branches reaching to the stars and a thick strong trunk held lovingly in the flowing waters of life.
We are a group of folks who gather, once in at least a 13 moon cycle, but this time in 24 moons in a place called Avalon Spring. We come from different witchcraft or spiritual traditions to drop into sacred story, work on our ‘craft’ skills and to do magic and ritual together.
Avalon Spring is a residential intensive in Reclaiming and Feri magic. We are dedicated to offering a strong grounding in the ‘craft’ and ongoing development in magical and spiritual skills and practice. We work with the physical and spiritual landscape we live in, the gods in all Her forms, ancestors, the fey and the Powers of the Elements of Life. Together we create sacred space and experience ritual, trance work, visualisation, ecstasy, sacred drama, eco-magic, dancing, chanting, storytelling, community building and have lots of fun!
Paths and evening rituals are taught and led by trained teachers brought up through the structured teacher training set in place by over 30 years of intensives called Wichcamps in the USA, Canada and Europe. Our intensive is open to people of all experience levels and we welcome all traditions. We recognise, welcome and fully celebrate diversity in background, sexuality, ethnicity, gender, ability and culture.
Some of us also work in a branch of Feri called Reclaiming Feri, an integration of the Anderson Feri and Reclaiming Traditions, both ecstatic traditions of magic in which learning to listen to our intuitive wisdom, the Powers of the Elements of Life, and the Divine is fundamental to magical spiritual practice. It is also an acknowledgment of the Reclaiming Tradition’s roots in the Anderson Feri Tradition.
The paths and evening rituals give all an opportunity to deepen our craft, either in one of the magical disciplines or outwardly moving magic into the world through the community.
We see our practice as teaching and making magic, empowering each other and ourselves. We train our voices, bodies, energy, intuition, and minds. We use the skills we learn to deepen our spirituality and strength, both as individuals and as community, to bring to birth a new vision of culture.
