Samhain Session

Priestess College

October 26 – November 3, 2025

Welcome to Wytch Camp!

Priestess College explores the Wheel of the Year through a cyclical dance that weaves the
magical into the practical.

Together we cultivate a collective mythos that braids
our new story into a holy remembering.

Sacred Arts

Immerse with those who yearn to remember and embody a time of truly felt magick.

The Veils are thin

The Mysts recede

Feel your pace

Listen, take heed

Rituality

Our versatile Goddess Temple Community holds many talents, levels of experience, and a profound desire to grow. These tenants of truth have been gestating for over two decades, and we welcome you to begin your Priestess Path with us.

Learn to guide heart-opening & honoring rituals that bring community & families closer together whilst bridging modernity with the ancient. Immerse within an environment that pushes the edges necessary to have the essential tools for authentic chop-wood carry-water Priestessing.

Samhain Community Gathering

At Samhain, we celebrate the shedding of the old, the thinning of the veils, & our beloved ancestors of all kind + kin, who we would not be who we be without.

Ancestors whisper

the Wytch’s Reel


The Fire ignites


and We all pray to heal
