Grief is a thread woven into the fabric of our lives, coexisting with the cycles of nature.
Join Carla Torres-Davis, Death Doula + Midwife & Resse Quinn, Tarot Reader + Astrologer for an evening of weaving our collective and communal Grief of a loved one – no matter how recent or long ago – in a community setting. During our time together, we will honor the lives of those who are dear to us but no longer with us in intentional activities that thread the layers and cycles of Grief that are still very present within us.
Spring is a time of rebirth and new beginnings, but for those grieving, this can feel like a harsh reminder of the loss we are still carrying. It’s important to allow ourselves to experience the change of seasons at our own pace, finding comfort in both the sorrow and the growth that spring brings. This gathering offers a healing and safe space to witness and be witnessed in our own and each other’s collective Grief around the loss of a special person in our lives. All stories, death circumstances, and genuine human feelings are welcomed and invited!
There will be a Tarot Ritual and an acknowledgment of the energy of the Full Moon in Scorpio to open our gathering. Additionally, we will build a communal Grief Altar during our time together, so please come with a picture or memento of a loved one you would like to honor. If you do not have any mementos, we will provide paper upon which to write their name(s).

Plants have their own consciousness just like every living being and creature on the planet. When we not only give plants a solid and wonderful environment to thrive in and we are also incorporate an understanding of the unique life and spirit of the plant they can truly flourish. Plants have a subtle way of communicating with us and expressing what they need, like or don’t like. All we need to do is tap into our own subtle awareness on what our plant/s needs are fundamentally, practically & holistically.
In this virtual workshop, Carla will guide you through different ways to care and tend to the spirit of your house plants that will take your green- thumb qualities to the next level. She will focus on different aspects of indoor plant care from lighting, environment, watering, re-potting to talking to your plants, playing music for them and building a routine of care that will deepen the physical and energetic bond with your indoor plant babies. Carla will also give you tips & remedies to help cure and revive struggling plant pals.
If you have questions about a certain plant of your own bring them with you to class!! Small to medium plants would be best.

“And without this bonding, what is life? What is life without this exchange of soul essence between the human and the wildness of the world?”
– Stephen Buhner from the book The Secret Teaching Of Plants”

YOUR INSTRUCTOR:

Carla has been the Plant House Witch at RitualCravt for the past 3 years and she has been a lover of plants all of her life. Carla’s love of plants really made a shift in 30’s when she started to intentionally care for her houseplants in a way that allowed them to thrive through individualized care. This is when I begin to deepened my curiosity of what their unique life force needs to survive. And, it was surprising to see how clearly plants communicate their needs, if we only shift our awareness of them in this way.
Carla’s understanding of caring for plants went from a basic watering and lighting technique to a more holistic, well rounded and relational, care system of physical and energetic plant mothering. My learning in plant care is ever evolving! Carla is amazed by what plants can teach us and she hopes you can find the same value in this class on what she learned on her plant tending journey so far.

In times of such upheaval in the world, we need anchors and the feeling of being grounded to the ancient world. Trees are one such conduit by which we may feel connection and interdependence. Furthermore, whether they are grand old trees at the center of a forest or a tree newly sprouted, watered by the tears of its gardener, trees hold a magical place in fairy tales. In addition, when we feel lost and confused, or fearful and anxious, trees may be asked to be our protectors and protectresses. This lecture will bring trees and fairy tales together in an exploration of several classic fairy tales from different eras, authors, and parts of the world, that center on trees as protectors and guardians. Some attention will be given to scientific research about the sentience of trees and their behavior, which will show that what we may think of as fairy-tale magic when it comes to trees may actually be scientifically based. My hope for the class is that you will look at trees with newfound knowledge and appreciation for the way they ground and watch over us. I’d love for you to be inspired by this class to make connections with trees in your world, on your land, on walks or hikes you take, to name them, to form relationships, and perhaps even to cultivate growth of new trees. Who knows, maybe you’ll even be inspired to write your own fairy tale incorporating trees!

Psychometry involves receiving psychic impressions about an object, person, place, or event by physically handling an item associated with them. The first hour of the circle will include basic information about the process, the psychic senses that make psychometry possible, and preparation for hands-on practice. The second hour will be spent in practice, handling available items and seeing what impressions we get, including if what we get can be verified. However, this isn’t so much as “right and wrong” as it is about practice and having fun!
There will be a variety of items to practice with including found objects, items that have been used in magical workings, and those thought to be haunted or otherwise attached to a spirit. You are welcome to bring an item share, so long as you are comfortable with it being handled by others.

{IN PERSON} The Art of the Hebrew Qameot: Crafting Amulets of Power

For those who walk the path of mystery, for those who seek protection, blessing, or influence beyond the veil—this is your invitation to step into the ancient tradition of Hebrew Qameot, amulets crafted with divine names, angelic seals, and words of power. Used for centuries by mystics, healers, and workers of hidden arts, these amulets are more than ink on parchment—they are living forces, charged with intent and built to shape the world around you.
Under the guidance of Col. Welburn Kemp—a Hillbilly Jew and Appalachian Conjure Man—you’ll spend two hours immersed in both the history and the practice of this powerful tradition. In the first half of the class, you’ll study historic examples of Hebrew Qameot, learning how they were built, what elements give them power, and how they’ve been used to heal, protect, and command the unseen. You’ll break down the essential components—divine names, angelic sigils, letter permutations, and the hidden logic behind their construction. The second half of the class puts the art in your hands. Using real parchment and a selection of pre-prepared elements, you will build your own Qamea, crafting a personal amulet aligned to your needs, whether for protection, prosperity, health, or something deeper. Before you leave, you’ll learn the steps to properly activate and charge your amulet, ensuring it becomes a true tool of power rather than just a collection of symbols.
All materials—including real parchment—are provided. No prior experience is necessary, only a sharp mind and a steady hand. If you are ready to not just learn, but to create and walk away with something real, then this class is for you. Spots are limited. Step forward and claim yours.

Welburn Hiram Kemp is a proud Appalachian, steeped and studied in the time honored traditions of folklore, conjure, and faith healing passed down through generations in the hollers of Eastern Kentucky.

The Animistic Worldview in Old Norse Mythology:
Old Norse mythology is rooted in the natural world of northern Europe. It expresses the experiences that northern peoples have had with the natural world for millennia. The surviving medieval literature on Old Norse mythology has retained much of this perspective, especially in the Eddic poems Vafthrudnismal and Grimnismal. We will read these poems and analyze them as expressions of animistic relationality with the natural world.
YOUR INSTRUCTOR:
Mathias Nordvig has a PhD in Old Norse literature with focus on Old Norse mythology. He teaches subjects on Old Norse literature and culture, Nordic witchcraft and pre-Christian religion, and Arctic cultures at the University of Colorado-Boulder. His primary research interests are critical whiteness studies, the reception of Old Norse mythology in pop-culture and music, and Old Norse mythology as a land-based conceptual framework for life in the pre-Christian North.

The Wisdom of the Threads: The Magic of Spinning, Weaving, and Binding in the North:
From 50,000-year-old burial mound cordage to the Norns who wove the threads of fate, this class explores how spinning, weaving, and knotwork are seen as inherently magical and intimately connected to the creation of life and the soul in Nordic folklore and myth. Students will be introduced to how cloth, knots, and thread are utilized in Nordic folk magic and divination, and they will also learn about the spirits and stories behind these arts. Participants will come away with knowledge of traditional folk magic methods, the symbolism behind folk embroidery, the stories of old feminine magics, the use of fiber and fiber tools in seiðr, the connection between fiber arts and life itself, and more.
The practices of twisting, knotting, and weaving date back to the Neolithic period and are some of our oldest technologies; participating in this work helps to connect us to many generations of ancestors. Come and be inspired to live by the old ways and our ancestral traditions. If you are interested in fiber arts, folkways, Trolldom, Nordic folk healing, stories of seiðr, plant magic, goddesses, poetry, or the Sagas, this would be a great class for you to join.

Utiseta: Forging Bonds of Magical Power:

The roots of folk magic is found among the patterns of nature; the stones and soil, the trees and roots, the mounds and cairns, and in the wind and weather. Most wisdom cultures have systems for deepening perception of the natural world both inside and outside of us. Utiseta, or “sitting out” is one such custom found in northern folk traditions. Engaging in this practice amplifies your capacity to forge authentic bonds with the great powers of the land.

This class will explore the old lore of sitting out on burial mounds as it has been passed through the ages, a practice filled with relevancy for every magical practitioner. Equally, we will learn an even deeper practice— complete perception of the energy, spirits, and patterns found in the natural world. We will discuss methods of sitting on the land, communicating with elements, the language of birds, the indicators of ecology, and how to walk the land in a sacred way. Ancient sorcerers, farmers, and healers knew how to listen to the wind, smell the season, taste when the harvest was ripe, and influence forces of nature. Here, we learn these practices of immersive nature awareness for the modern world. Here, we will forge the threads of connection, the reciprocity, and the communication systems to fully integrate nature’s pattern to empower authentic sorcery.

Rune Magic and Animism:
In the Old Norse worldview, rune magic was an expression of animistic relationality with the seen and unseen forces in our world. Runes could be used as any letter system to write curses and spells, but the letters themselves also contained magical powers. In this class, we will learn about how the runes were used for magic, and how they expressed a complete idea about the cosmological order of our existence.

Starlight, Forge-fire, and Hearth Embers: The Elves, Trolls, & Dwarves in Scandinavian Folklore and Practice:

The folklore & mythology of Scandinavia bears host to a rich roster of non-human spirits. From the celestial elves, known for their light, enchantment, and occasional blood sucking – to the surly & often deadly trolls that haunt majestic mountains. What sets these supernatural beings apart from each other – and from the average human ghost? How does the etiquette expected of humans’ interaction with them vary? Are the smith-master dwarves truly antisocial, compared to the domestic tomte who frequents the homestead? What stellar bodies are sacred to trolls, or are the stars solely the domain of elves? This presentation will explore the answers to these questions, as well as how these extraordinary beings are approached(& avoided) in Scandinavia – including via the lens of the Norse folk magic & sorcery of Trolldom.

YOUR INSTRUCTOR:

Rose is a sorceress, seer, and trollkvinna. Born into a lineage of Celtic fairy seership & witchcraft, Rose has been interacting with spirits and practicing magic since a very young age.

As a professional sorceress, Rose specializes in helping others with fairy, elf, and troll-related troubles.

This class is IN PERSON. TICKETS ARE NOT TRANSFERABLE.
Class fees are non transferable, we stick to the student agreements agreed upon during registration. Please ensure you are able to attend the scheduled class time.

Join us for our monthly tarot meet-up! This meet-up is designed to be a facilitated space for those interested in tarot, not a “class.” There will be two facilitators, current readers here at Ritualcravt – Andrea Carla and Reese Quinn.
Tarot meet-ups will start with a monthly topic discussion decided by your facilitators or the prior month’s group! Your facilitators will be there to offer topics for discussion, hold space for questions, encourage “practice” readings, and provide time for intentional community building as it fits the group.
Please come with your tarot deck and your curiosity! Tarot decks will also be available to borrow if you do not have your own just yet!

YOUR INSTRUCTORS:
Andrea’s fascination with reading cards began from a young age after being introduced to the Smith-Waite Tarot. From then on, she began to explore different methods of divination and fell in love with Lenormand, a system of cartomancy originating in late 18th century Europe. Andrea’s style of reading cards could be described as pragmatic and deeply rooted in tradition, influenced by a true reverence for the sibyls of the past. As a teacher, Andrea has both an academic and scholarly approach to the way that she presents her classes as well as sharing from her experiences and gnosis as a professional reader. She considers the Tarot to be a book of esoteric mysteries and has spent years of her life in studying and peeling back its many layers to share the knowledge and wisdom embedded in every card.
Reese Quinn (she/they) is a tarot and astrology reader and what they lovingly call a practical witch. They have a strong awareness of the crossroads between astrology, cartomancy, and elemental practices. You’ll note that Reese embraces their queer, intersectional identities when both teaching and reading. Reese has been a reader at Ritualcravt for over two years and has studied with well-known witches like Lindsay Mack and Pam Grossman and well-respected teachers locally in Denver. In 2021-2022, they completed an apprenticeship with best-selling author and reader of 20+ years, Stefanie Caponi. Their writing is available via the Moon Void Tarot website and they have additional works forthcoming. (@western.moon.witch)

As so many are drawn to divination, even more so, I think, in troubled times, I’d like to offer a creative way to read your cards, using the language of storytelling and fairy tales/folklore. This is a system that I created last year that provides a new way to create spreads to read, so you can use your own cards, and any deck should work. In other words, the cards themselves do not have to be fairy-tale themed, as just the questions/subtopics are! I have chosen the structural system from the work of a famous narratologist to provide the basis for the options for the card spreads, and I’ll teach you his system first and apply it to how it enhances the reading of a familiar fairy tales. From that, I’ll show you how to take the elements of his system and instead of applying them to fairy tales, to apply them to tarot readings that you create. You’ll be able to customize your spread to your question and needs by using the language and organization of the system, creating a wealth of possibilities and ways to focus your reading. The system will provide hundreds of thousands of possible spreads, all based on your imagination, and will reinforce how much life itself, and the events therein, are a story waiting to be told. Please have your tarot cards at hand for class because we will be doing some practice spreads.

His practice has always been dedicated to the community, working in local spiritual shops in New Orleans Louisiana, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, and Denver Colorado. Dedicated to his spiritual work for over a decade, while also assisting the community in his legal profession through his daily life, Gabriel sees the balance that both the spiritual world and material world have in the progression of someone’s life. May it be through a limpieza espiritual or the making of protection spikes for one’s home, money gris-gris for the gambler or investment broker, or for a love and domination spell for young women wanting to attract their lovers of choice, Gabriel would lend a hand for the ones true to their heart, and honesty in Spirit’s eyes. Being born from a lineage of witches and orthodox priests, he understands the differences and similarities of the messages that come to pass with each person, allowing for a different type of magical work to occur. Gabriel is also a writer for Witches Magazine under his mundane alias, an independent magazine based in the United Kingdom. An adventurous spirit, Gabriel feels and hears the call of spirit through the wind, through winding southern brooks, and on high mountain peaks, observing the simple magics that each of us cherishes in our everyday lives.

Saint Michael the Archangel has long been called upon as a defender of the faithful, a slayer of evil, and a shield against unseen forces. Whether facing spiritual battles, seeking justice, or fortifying personal protection, his presence has been invoked across centuries and traditions. This class will explore both the rich history of Saint Michael and the practical ways to call upon his power, build a working relationship with him, and incorporate his presence into your spiritual practice.
We will begin with an in-depth look at Saint Michael’s origins, his roles in scripture, legend, and mystical tradition, and how he has been honored from ancient times to modern-day devotion. We’ll examine his role in Jewish, Christian, and folk traditions, his appearances in sacred texts, and how warriors, mystics, and everyday people have called upon his name for strength and protection.
The second half of the class shifts from history to practice. You will learn how to invoke Saint Michael as a personal guardian, fortify your spiritual defenses, and actively work with him for protection, justice, and strength. Topics will include:

Essential prayers, invocations, and traditional devotions
How to set up and maintain a Saint Michael altar or sacred space
The use of sigils, seals, and sacred objects in calling his power
Protection rituals and workings to bring Saint Michael’s shield into your life
How to craft a personalized petition or invocation for his aid

This is a class for seekers, fighters, and protectors—for those who wish to stand under the shield of Saint Michael and walk forward in strength. Whether you are new to working with him or have long been devoted, this class will give you both deep knowledge and practical tools to walk in his presence with confidence.
