SUMMARY:Becoming a Good Ancestor
DESCRIPTION:As magical practitioners it becomes our sacred responsibility to contemplate not only the legacy we might want to leave behind but to make strong preparation for our dying process to ease the burden on our loved ones. This includes the very practical business of putting together paperwork necessary and to have deep conversations with those who will be responsible for those processes. In transformational spaces and magical practices\, there is a rise in ancestral work and veneration\; a call for stability within the memory of resilience. So the question arises: How do we become good ancestors ourselves? Join us as we discuss both the practical and magical aspects of this natural part of our larger existence.

SUMMARY:Crafting Your Own Spells and Rituals
DESCRIPTION:I would like to guide attendees to create their own spells by blending a variety of tools and techniques I have collected in my three decades of practice. First\, I would like to give a short presentation on correspondences\, what they are and how to use them. Then I would like to give the attendees time to create their own spells using a format I have in Divergent Witchcraft: An Inclusive Approach to Making Magic. I am a former classroom English teacher and I really love hands-on teaching approaches like this. I would keep my lecture to about 45 minutes and use the rest of the time to help everyone create spells they feel confident in creating and that will actually work.

SUMMARY:Inanna’s Healing Journey through the 7 Chakras
DESCRIPTION:Explore the ancient Sumerian myth of Inanna’s descent into the Underworld as a living map of the Hero’s Journey and as a guide to understanding illness as initiation. Just as Inanna passes through seven gates\, surrendering symbols of her power\, we too are stripped bare in times of illness or struggle—yet within this loss lies the possibility of deep transformation. Aligned with the seven chakras and through ritual\, meditation\, and reflection\, we release what no longer serves\, awaken hidden gifts\, and return renewed.

SUMMARY:Sacred Shelves: A Divine Re-Imagining of Libraries\, Librarians\, and the “People of the Library”
DESCRIPTION:Libraries are often viewed as storehouses of knowledge\, yet they can also be imagined as sacred spaces of transformation\, justice\, and community. This presentation explores how Pagan spiritualities intersect with librarianship\, framing libraries as places where wisdom is preserved\, revealed\, and shared. Just as spiritual traditions carry myths and lineages forward\, libraries safeguard ancestral voices while offering discernment and pathways to follow. Librarians\, in this vision\, become guardians and guides\, connecting seekers with sources of insight\, healing\, and growth. As Pagans\, we don’t have a single sacred text and often rely on a multiplicity of sources and extensive research for inspiration. We will consider practices such as Lectio Divina\, bibliotherapy\, and bibliomancy\, as well as ways that libraries embody spiritual work. Participants will also engage in a guided sacred reading practice to experience this connection firsthand. Together\, we will re-envision the library not only as a civic institution\, but as a site of magic\, mystery\, and community transformation.

SUMMARY:How To Create a Spell
DESCRIPTION:Spellcasting is an act of creation. But where do we start\, how do we do it? Our most potent spells are the ones we create\, rather than following the recipes of others. In our time together\, we will cover&nbsp\;the steps needed to design spells that speak directly to the results we are aiming for.

SUMMARY:Keynote Presentation w/ Ivo Dominguez\, Jr.: "The Future Is Esoteric\, Exoteric\, & Secular" [ASL]
DESCRIPTION:"The Future Is Esoteric\, Exoteric\, and Secular"\n\nThere has been a rapid increase in the size of the Pagan community and in its diversity of beliefs and practices. Indeed we no longer have a good umbrella term\, but for simplicity sake I’ll use Pagan. This is not the first time in Western history that there has been a resurgence of interest in the mysteries\, occult philosophy\, and magick. In the past these waves have risen and then subsided. There are good reasons to believe that this wave will not subside. It is my position that we have crossed a critical threshold. The work of the next several decades is the cultivation of esoteric\, exoteric\, and secular approaches to Paganism. It is my contention that unless all three of these expressions of Paganism are tended\, we will subside. If these three are embraced\, then we will flourish.

SUMMARY:The Wheel of Elemental Magick
DESCRIPTION:Living the Wheel of Elements in Magick: The Wheel of Elements is the foundation of a witch’s craft. Each direction of the wheel holds an element that moves through your body\, your altar\, and your spells. In this workshop\, we will walk the wheel together\, exploring Earth in the North\, Air in the East\, Fire in the South\, and Water in the West. You will learn how to recognize these forces in your own life and how to call them with clarity in ritual. Each element will be given to you not just as a concept but as a power you can work with daily\, shaping your magic in real and tangible ways. By the end of our time together\, you will carry a deeper understanding of how to live with the elements as allies\, weaving their wisdom into your spells\, your circle\, and the way you move through the world.

SUMMARY:Psychedelics and Spiritual Integration
DESCRIPTION:Psychedelics and Spiritual Integration is a 90-minute guided teaching and reflection designed for those who sense that profound experiences—whether ceremonial\, contemplative\, or entheogenic—are not meant to stand alone. At Spirit Northwest\, where ritual\, presence\, and depth matter\, this session invites participants into a grounded\, reverent space that honors both mystical encounter and the slow work of becoming whole. This is not about peak experiences or belief systems\, but about learning how to live what has been revealed.\n\nPsychedelics are increasingly visible in clinical settings\, retreat culture\, and even leadership spaces—but wisdom does not automatically follow access. This gathering explores the emerging integration movement\, asking a deeper question: Are we cultivating insight that transforms how we love\, relate\, and belong—or simply collecting experiences? Through a trauma-aware\, spiritually mature lens\, we’ll explore why integration is essential\, how unintegrated revelation can fragment rather than heal\, and why the nervous system\, the soul\, and community must be included in the conversation.\n\nThis session is especially resonant for spiritual practitioners\, journeyers\, caregivers\, and seekers who have touched mystery—death\, unity\, ancestors\, the sacred—and are left wondering what comes next. Held with humility\, silence\, and care\, this is an invitation to slow down\, listen deeply\, and practice discernment together. The goal is not transcendence\, but relationship: with self\, with others\, and with the living mystery that remains.

SUMMARY:Crafting a Therapy Ritual
DESCRIPTION:Therapy\, like ritual\, is a sacred space where healing and transformation unfold. In this interactive workshop\, we’ll explore how to weave pagan spiritual practices into your personal growth and therapy journeys. Together\, we’ll look at how ritual—through engaging the senses\, honoring the elements\, grounding in intention\, and creating protection—can deepen presence and support the inner work of healing. You’ll learn the difference between habits\, routines\, and rituals\, and practice designing your own personalized therapy ritual to prepare for\, enhance\, or close your sessions. We’ll also explore ways to talk with your provider (pagan or not) about bringing spiritual practices into your healing process. Presented by a pagan & therapist with over 20 years of experience and co-founder of Pagan Affirming Therapy & Healthcare (PATH)\, who is currently writing a book on this subject. Whether you’re a seeker\, practitioner\, or therapist\, this workshop offers tools to align magic and mental health.

SUMMARY:Keynote Presentation with Laura Dávila: “Pa’ Que Nunca Nos Borren” (So That We Are Never Erased) [ASL]
DESCRIPTION:In Mexica cosmology and broader Mesoamerican traditions\, the hummingbird is deeply connected to warriors\, ancestors\, and the sun. The deity Huitzilopochtli\, whose name is often interpreted as “Left-Handed Hummingbird” or “Hummingbird of the South\,” was the patron god of the Mexica people and represented the solar force\, warfare\, and spiritual transformation.\n\n\nWithin many Mexican folk traditions\, the chuparrosa is also associated with love\, attraction\, vitality\, and the movement of the soul between worlds. Because of its unique ability to hover\, fly in multiple directions\, and appear almost suspended in time\, the hummingbird has long been seen as a creature that moves between realms\, &nbsp\;the physical and the spiritual.\n\n\nIn the class\, Laura will discuss the historical roots of these beliefs\, the symbolic role of the hummingbird in Mexica culture\, and how its imagery and spirit continue to appear in forms of Mexican folk magic and devotional practice today.\n\nWe will close together with a short collective invocation and ritual honoring resilience\, ancestral memory\, and the magical traditions that brought us here.\n\nThe intention is to provide both cultural and historical context while honoring the continuity of these traditions within contemporary Mexican spiritual practices.\n\n

SUMMARY:AAR Western Region Pagan Studies Unit Panel: Paganism\, Technology\, and Innovation
DESCRIPTION:Fresh from the American Academy of Religion Western Region annual meeting at the University of Nevada Las Vegas\, our presenters will reprise the presentations they gave at that event\, and hold a roundtable discussion with each other and the audience about Paganism\, Technology\, and Innovation. There will be a Meet the Scholars reception at 7:00 pm\, in room 301.\n\nPanel Moderator: Polly Springhorn\, Cherry Hill Seminary\n\nIvan Richmond\, Independent Scholar\, “Leading Rituals Over Video Conferencing During the Pandemic”\n\nGaea McTire\, Independent Scholar\, “Digital Reciprocity in the Algorithmic Sacred: A Pagan Governance Protocol for Generative AI”\n\nReception to follow\n\nRoundtable Discussion:\nContemporary Pagans have long grappled with and embraced technology and innovation. In material culture\, we find matches replaced with electric igniters\, and continuing differences of opinion about photographing altars\, videos of rituals\, and music playback devices\, computers\, and mobile phones in ritual spaces. Religionists have used technology to communicate and connect – from the BBSes of the 1980s\, to the alt.pagan and related UseNet groups and the birth of the World Wide Web in the early 1990s\; to cyber-rituals on IRC channels and Skype\, to the Zoom rituals of COVID pandemic quarantine. In the 21st century we find #WitchTok and pop culture witches transforming fundamental aspects of Paganism. Our panel will delve into these and other topics and invite a multi-generational discussion with attendees.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Matter-Reality in the Charge of the Goddess: Bodies\, Objects\, Places\, and Sensations
DESCRIPTION:Shelley Rabinovich and James Lewis called the Charge of the Goddess “perhaps the most important single theological document in the neo-Pagan movement". Knowing Paganism’s deep affinity with materiality\, or matter-reality\, such a foundational Wiccan document as the Charge would naturally incorporate bodies\, objects\, places\, and sensations. Material aspects bring a sense of value\, meaning\, and order to Wicca\, serve as symbols to be interpreted for religious meanings\, build traditions over time\, participate in assemblages along with Wiccans\, and act on Wiccans and shape them. In this paper\, I will compare five versions of the Charge dating from 1899 to 1979\; and the short excerpt from the Charge which Gerald Brousseau Gardner included in his 1954 book Witchcraft Today\, to understand what material aspects he and his initiators considered suitable and best to share with Wicca’s earliest public audience.

SUMMARY:Chromatic Currents: An Introduction to Synesthesia Magick
DESCRIPTION:Chromatic Currents: Exploring Synesthesia as a Portal for Contemporary Witchcraft and Magical Praxis" explores synesthesia—specifically chromesthesia\, the perception of color through sound—as a potent tool for contemporary witchcraft and magical practice. Framing synesthesia as an intuitive\, embodied form of gnosis\, I propose a model of "Synesthetic Witchcraft" that blends sensory cross-perception with ritual\, spellwork\, and energetic healing. Drawing from personal experience\, trauma-informed care\, and interdisciplinary research\, I will demonstrate how chromesthetic perception can enhance divination\, trance states\, spirit communication\, and energy work by offering vivid\, real-time sensory feedback. Attendees will be introduced to ritual structures and magical correspondences based on sound-color interactions\, and explore how synesthetic modalities can be cultivated by both neurodivergent and neurotypical practitioners through meditative\, artistic\, and somatic techniques. This talk is designed for witches\, healers\, artists\, and magical practitioners seeking a more intuitive\, decolonized\, and sensorial approach to their craft—particularly those drawn to liminality\, neurodivergence\, and the sacred language of the body.

SUMMARY:Keynote Presentation with Isidora Forrest: Kheperu - The Key to Egyptian Magic [ASL]
DESCRIPTION:To empower their magic\, ancient Egyptian magicians used a very specific\, very traditional\, and very Egyptian technique. This technique has come down to us\, through the ages. We find it in ancient Egyptian texts\, of course. But later\, we find it in the work of magical practitioners\, as well as in the teachings of certain esoteric groups. In this keynote talk\, we’ll explore this magical technique as we find it in ancient Egypt. Then we’ll briefly follow it throughout the centuries\, and in lands outside of Egypt\, to see how it both remained the same and also underwent significant changes with the various people who came to use it. Next\, in the workshop portion\, we’ll practice a “light” version of the technique together. And we’ll talk about how it might be applied to both practical magic and spiritual magic. I look forward to talking magic—and doing magic—with you

SUMMARY:The Myth Of Closure [ASL]
DESCRIPTION:Closure: When something uncomfortable happens\, we want to know why. We may believe that knowing the “why” will ease our pain. But what if the “why” isn’t clear? What if there’s no “why” at all? This meditative and journaling exercise will help you look at your uncomfortable story as beautiful in its own right\, whether or not closure is ever found.
