Candle Magick

RitualCravt
7700 W 44th Ave
Wheat Ridge CO 80033
Real-world challenges?
Magical leverage can unsnarl them.
Candle magick is a powerful way of spell-working. It engages heart, head and all of our sensory awareness. Using a candle as focal point, you’ll learn practical techniques and some big secrets for performing successful spells. From these basics, we'll look at how to custom-design beautiful and effective spells, from start to finish, including the follow-through: Getting results you can use.
Abracadabra, indeed. (Aramaic : Abraq ad habra = “I will create as I speak”)
Please bring:
— Note-taking materials
Fee: $34 includes Renna’s small book, Candle Magick. Click here to register with RitualCravt.

Introduction to the Runes
Sunday, August 2, 2-4pm
RitualCravt
7700 W 44th Ave
Wheat Ridge CO 80033
Can ancient symbols of torches and cattle help us navigate the 21st century?
Yes!
We’ll take an introductory look at the twenty-four Runes of the Elder Futhark, which can function both as a written language and as a spiritual tool. Our focus will be on the latter, the magical uses: Seidr-work, such as casting the Runes for divination, creating “bind-runes” to set intention and protection, and - vitally - learning to attune our thinking to this symbolic language.
Please bring:
— Note-taking materials
— If you already have a set of runes, you’re welcome to bring them.
Fee: $34 includes Renna’s small book “Rune-Reader: The Ancient Runes and How to Use Them”
Beginning Shamanism: A Two-Day Training
Saturday & Sunday, October 17 & 18,
10:30am-5:30pm both days
RitualCravt
7700 W 44th Ave
Wheat Ridge CO 80033
We each have a personal direct-line to Spirit,
but may need some help to reawaken it.
Shamanism – the trained spiritual trance practices of Animism –
is still here, and it still works.
Whether you're new to shamanic practices or want to build on what you already have, this workshop is designed to help. As we explore shamanic journeying in-depth, you enhance your journey-confidence, and gain experience with the over-all process.
We'll work with the Lower, Upper and Middle Worlds through a variety of journeys; create context and structure for your practice; look a bit at healing, divination, and the history of shamanism; trouble-shoot any questions that arise; and then – yes! – do more journeying, including Power Animals Retrievals.
Please bring:
— There are various items I suggest that you bring, like a bandana and a large-ish rock. The full list will be emailed when you register, or you can contact me in advance if you want to see it before signing up.
Fee: $245 - Register here through Ritualcravt.
I took this workshop back in 1989, and my life shifted on its axis, dramatically, joyfully, and for the better. This is one of my favorite trainings to teach, and I've been offering it for nearly two decades now. If you're curious about my own training, please visit the F.A.Q. page on this site. For any particular questions, please use the "Contact Me" link along the top of this page. I hope to see you in October.
Are there classes you'd like to see back on the schedule? Please let me know. You can email me through this contact page. Please check the listings under classes; when dates are scheduled, I'll post them there.
Or request an add to my email list via the Subscribe button just below, at the very bottom of this webpage - that will give you the earliest notice when new workshop dates are scheduled.
Thanks!
