The Iron Pentacle - TWO SUNDAYS – FEB 8 & 15

The Iron Pentacle

TWO SUNDAYS – FEB 8 & 15

Reclaim the qualities of Sex, Pride, Self, Power and Passion. Call them
back to you and claim them as your birthrights. Our culture has twisted
these words: we, as Witches, know that we can use these words, they are
sacred. They are the building blocks to becoming more human.

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).

Reclaiming is a community of individuals working to unify spirit and
politics. Our vision is rooted in the religion and magic of the Goddess,
the Immanent Life Force. We see our work as teaching and making magic;
the art of empowering ourselves and each other.
