Incense Making for the Thinning of the Veil

To Book this event - please visit The College of Psychic Studies' Events Page 

Incenses have long been used in natural magic for prosperity, divine  communication, success and love. Burning loose incense can accompany a  ritual, or become a sacred act in itself. This livestream workshop  teaches you how to make your own unique blend for Samhain on 31 October,  and how to use it for an intentional ritual.

The end of October heralds the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. On  this night,  the veils between the world of the living and the dead are  said to be at their thinnest, and witches gather to call on their  ancestors.

In this 2-part livestream workshop, you will learn how to  blend your own loose incense, helping you tune into the energies of the  season. We will design a bespoke ritual using your incense to help open  up your psychic awareness and call upon your ancestors.

You learn how to work with the essential components of incense: the  resins, oils and botanicals. Rebecca will guide each participant to  blend a personal incense for a specific goal or spell to use at home.  You will gain the knowledge to continue making your own magical incense  blends independently.

Join witch and author Rebecca Beattie to discover how to  create incense blends designed for your own intent and create blends to  help you with your own psychic development and magical workings for  Samhain.
