Guided by Liz Williams -
Following on from our popular Basic Practical Magic course, this new 8-month course looks at different aspects of practical magic in greater depth, with a personalised approach that enables you to study your chosen areas of magical practice with full support from myself and the team at Witchcraft Shop/Cat & Cauldron.
Throughout the course, we will be looking at a number of aspects of deeper magical practice, including:
- astral travel and shamanic journeying
- building up a personal relationship with a particular deity or deities (constructing shrines, daily practice, specific ritual work)
- grimoire magic: conjuration, invocation and evocation, and working with specific entities (mainly angelic work but we will be looking at other types of conjuration as well)
- in-depth planetary work and Behenian star lore (Renaissance astrology)
- healing work
- banishing and binding (this is ‘emergency measures' magical practice, and we will also be dealing with curse removal, house cleansing, and protective/blessing magic)
- ritual work for others: constructing naming ceremonies, handfastings, funeral rites
- in-depth ancestor and underworld journeying work
- advanced spell work
- trance work
- magical theory and ethics
Once again, you can start at any time, the course will be sent to you monthly, and I will discuss your personal requirements with you in Month 1. I will be setting regular practical work. I will be available throughout the course to answer any questions and offer any help that you need, which may be on a more intensive basis, given that this is more advanced work. Please note that we will be running regular weekend non-residential workshops in Glastonbury, but I am also happy to meet up with you on an informal basis if you’re in town and run through anything that you'd like to focus on.

Here's what she says about it -
A number of people have asked me about doing writing workshops with me - this is something that I've run regularly for one of the universities, as well as other organisations.
After the success of the first course, I am scheduling at least one 2 day workshop annually, 10 a.m to 4 p.m, in Glastonbury
This particular workshop is directed at people who are aiming at publication and covers the basics of:
- short story writing
- novel writing
- preparing work for publication
- marketing your work
- contacting agents and publishers
- genre as an industry
There are a maximum of 10 places and no entry criteria. It is likely that I will be repeating this workshop throughout the year by demand.
We will not be doing a lot of writing during the workshop itself - the idea, which has proved successful in the University of Sussex workshops, is to download as much as possible of what I have learned in a decade-long pro career into your heads!
Get in touch to register your interest and Liz will give you some alternative dates.
We can assist you in finding local B&B accommodation (at your cost)
