Elements of Magic for Kids

ELEMENTS OF MAGIC for Kids (5 to 105)! – In Person Class

Come learn, laugh, dance and play with the children and inner children of our community as we meet and interact with the fundamental spiritual building blocks of our existence and our tradition! Elements of Magic is a standard introduction to the Reclaiming style of magic, in which we explore working with the elements of Air, Fire, Water, Earth and Spirit both in sacred space and in our daily lives. For the first time, Reclaiming LA is offering a version of this class that is tailored to kids ages 5-11 (Adults also welcome!).

Magical techniques such as casting circles, grounding, visualization / trance, raising energy, and spell work will be taught in a simplified way that is easy to understand for all ages. The class will be hands-on and we will engage these energies via singing, dancing, arts and crafts, and other dynamic activities.

Parents are welcome but not required to attend and participate in the class.

Taught by Rebecca and Kirke.

WHEN

Alternating Saturdays: 3/25, 4/8, and 4/22

12pm to 4pm

To create a strong magical container, we kindly ask that students commit to attending at least two out of the three sessions.

Reclaiming Tradition Core Classes

Elements of Magic

Each class is structured as a ritual and includes practical ritual and magical skills. Elements of Magic allows us to explore these skills in a supportive group setting. This class is a great way to connect with other people exploring Reclaiming-tradition magic and witchcraft.

We welcome both beginning students and advanced students who want to deepen their experience of the sacred elements.

Prerequisite: Reading of the first six chapters of The Spiral Dance by Starhawk.

Iron Pentacle

Using our magical skills, moving and shaping energy, transforming ourselves through trance to explore the five points of our inner pentacle: Sex (primal energy), Self, Passion, Pride (self-esteem), and Power (effectiveness in the worlds). Six classes (or weekend intensive), culminating with a ritual created by the students. Learn more about the Iron Pentacle in the Reclaiming Quarterly.

Prerequisite: Elements of Magic class or equivalent.

Pearl Pentacle

We will work with the deep, healing energies of the Pentacle of Pearl, moving through the five points: Love, Law, Wisdom, Power, and Knowledge. Learn more about the Pearl Pentacle in the Reclaiming Quarterly.

Prerequisite: Elements of Magic class or equivalent.

Rites of Passage

Rites of Passage focuses on dreams, myths, and language, using traditional and non-traditional tales and techniques to create a personal rite of passage. Through storytelling, trance, release work, and dreams we receive our challenge(s), meet our helpers, work through our blocks and emerge renewed, reborn. Six classes (or weekend intensive), culminating with a ritual created by the students.

Prerequisite: Elements of Magic class or equivalent.

Pentacle of Community

In this class, we weave magic to open ourselves to the wisdom of the being that is community. We work with the five points of our pentacle of interdependence: Collaboration, Honour, Common Good, Empowerment, and Service. Six classes (or weekend intensive), culminating with a ritual created by the students.

Prerequisite: Elements of Magic and either Iron Pentacle or Pearl Pentacle.

Sliding Scale

At Reclaiming LA, we’ve chosen to offer a sliding scale fee to make it easier for more students to participate in our classes by paying what they can afford. We also have scholarships available for students who need additional assistance. It is up to each student to self-assess their ability to pay.
