Dear Esteemed Member of The Spellcrafter's Guild

Welcome to the Guild, Cousin, where your journey into magic and self-discovery takes root. Embrace the wonder within you, for you've found a community that celebrates the unique medicine you bring.

As you step into this sacred space, know that your presence is not just valued; it's cherished. Your choice to prioritize your magical practice is a powerful affirmation of your commitment to authenticity. As you navigate the cycles, discussions, and rituals, remember that your journey is deserving of your most present attention. Trust the flow, lean into the experience, and don't hesitate to reach out. Your fellow witches and the support team are here to guide and uplift you.

Engage in the discussions, participate in monthly Lab and Studio, utilize the workbooks, share your experiences, and let the magic flow. Each interaction, question, and exploration brings us closer to a richer understanding of ourselves and the systems we work with.

Allow yourself to feel the power of your presence in the guild, a space where your unique journey unfolds. Trust in the transformative potential of each cycle, and remember, every question you ask, every experience you share, adds to the collective magic we create together.

Never doubt that you belong here; each member is an integral part of the magic that unfolds within these sacred virtual walls. 

May your time in the Spellcrafter's Guild be filled with illumination, empowerment, and the discovery of boundless magic within.

With many blessings bright and dark,
The Guild

3rd Annual Autumnal Convergence

It’s that time, witches! Tickets to our 3rd annual Autumnal Convergence are now live. The end of a cycle, and the beginning of a new one. What better way to celebrate than a big ol witchy family reunion? Together, in person. Deep in the heart of the Mount Hood National Forest. The event planning committee has been hard at work researching, and planning to curate an event that will change your world. Because it most certainly will. You see, it’s not just a reunion. For many of you, this will be your first physical ceremonial experience. Celebrating the closure of this cycle and embracing the transition into the next…as a community. And I’m not talking about the light as a feather, stiff as a board games we played as children. I’m talking a full on ceremonial witchcraft experience. The event planning committee is planning quite the ritual! Just you wait and see!

As the Autumnal Convergence gets closer, we’ll release more information about what you will need to participate in the ceremony. We'll be working a lot of magic over the weekend, and there will be things that you’ll need to bring for those workings as well. We’ll make sure to get you a full list of what you need a minimum of 30 days before the event. The biggest thing to get started on is what you want to wear for ritual. The most important thing is that you choose clothing that makes you feel powerful. You will have plenty of time to adorn yourself before we get started, so it truly can be anything you want. Have fun with it!

This gathering is all about connecting as a community of neurodivergent witches, so in that spirit we will be eating family style. The meal plan will include three meals per day with plenty of snackage in between. Dinner will be provided Friday evening and a continental style breakfast will be available Monday morning. Non-alcoholic drinks like tea, hot cocoa, and coffee will also be provided. These meals will be meticulously curated by our own Shop Keeper Extraordinaire, Kim, embracing the art of kitchen witchery with a focus on nutrition and connection. (If you have any dietary restrictions and/or preferences, please email kim@brightanddark.org).

The Convergence begins on the evening of Friday, September 27, 2024. And will run through to the morning of Monday, September 30, 2024.

**TICKETS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE**
We guarantee that tickets will be on sale until August 10th, 2024. After this date, any additional tickets will be sold on a case-by-case basis to ensure that we can accommodate lodging. Please reach out to support@brightanddark.org with any questions.
