Ostara — The Spring Equinox — is the time of year when day and night are equal. It is a time to recall the need for balance in all things within and without. Come join the Keepers of the Holly Chalice as we celebrate Ostara — and our 26th Anniversary as a coven! A feast of 'finger foods' will follow; please feel free to bring a dish (we ask that you take left-overs home with you as we have no way to deal with them). Monetary donations are always welcome and help us pay for the facilities.

This is a series of classes designed for the more advanced practitioner who wants to further their personal and magickal development. These are intermediate to advanced level classes, i.e., if you are unfamiliar with the basic concepts, take lots of notes and save them for later on, we won't be slowing down to explain during class.

Limit 20 per class, open to the ASW and outside.
A course outline may be found here.
There will be a fee of $25 per class or $120 for the full series.
