Völva - Divination Journey with Dandelion

Unlock your inner Seer using art, plants and the power of feminine insight. Our Divination journey with Dandelion is all about the season of Spring, the waxing moon, the Maiden and the goddess Freya. Part of our Seasons of the Witch series, where we cycle with the seasons of life and death.

During this workshop, we will explore:

The Art of Seidr: Learn about the historical and cultural significance of seidr, the mystical practice of Norse sorcery and shamanism, used by the völva to foresee and influence events.

Divination with Dandelion: Engage in a guided tea ceremony and shamanic journey using dandelion, a plant known for its powerful symbolic and medicinal properties. Discover how to use this humble herb to gain insight and clarity on your life's path.

Integration with Art: Create your own clay talisman to encapsulate your visions and guidance received from Dandelion and the power of Völva.

Samantha, will lead you through a deeply transformative experience, taking you on a guided descent journey. This journey is a guided meditation where Samantha will take you deep into your subconscious. Using soothing words and imagery, she will lead you through a symbolic descent into an inner landscape where you can explore your dreams, fears, and desires. This part of the journey is a powerful exploration of your inner world, guided by the spirit of Dandelion.

After the profound guided descent journey with Samantha, participants will transition into the creative phase of the experience. Here, they will translate the insights and visions from their inner journey into tangible forms of art. This process is designed to solidify the transformative experiences and bring their inner landscapes to life.
