Time, like the tides, waits for no one, but time, as with all things, moves in patterns, some say cycles, others spirals. Attending to such patterns and coming to know the various influences cycles bring, we can pick opportune, auspicious moments for our magical operations, as well as shape our intentions to align with these currents in our spell-casting making them most effective through the power of sympathy.

Join John-David (J-D) Kelley: practitioner, astrologer, and anthropologist, as we explore the application of time knowledge to magic. 

In this workshop you will learn about the importance of timing and intention; timing with the Seasons, the Sun, and Earth-Sky-Sea patterns; the role of the Moon and lunar days: use of planetary days and planetary hours: basic applications of astrology; and explore several “folk” magic timings. 

The workshop will culminate with the casting of a spell aligned the moment to apply what was learned. 

“What may be done at any time will be done at no time.” But, what may be done at a time will be done on time at the right time.
