Marjatta and the Shining Star

Join us amidst the beauty and enchantment of snow, cold, and ice for our 10th Anniversary of Winter Witchcamp.

From the Northland of Finland, we invite Tapio, the Lord of the Forest, and Mielikki, the Lady of the Wild Creatures, to gather round the hearth fires in Freya’s Hall to hear the tale of Marjatta, a woman who took into herself the red power of life and with Tapio's and
 Mielikki's help, made possible a new era.

This story comes from the Kalevala, an epic poem of Finnish folktales. Read the story here: RESOURCES

Our teaching team this year is:

Angela Magara, Jennifer Byers, Maggie Ananda, Matt Sweet, Ravyn Stanfield, and Riyana Sweetwater Moon.

They will offer their many gifts in telling this story rich with song, mystery, and power, adding new inspiration that will speak to our own deepest, magical possibilities.

Winter Witchcamp is a five-day intensive in the Reclaiming Tradition that includes:

Trance work, healing, drumming, dancing, chanting, storytelling, and powerful energy work.

At Winter Witchcamp we seek to develop new magical skills while deepening our relationship to Mystery.

We honor the Reclaiming Tradition's core values, including caring for the environment and our families and communities, and embracing diversity of all kinds, including diversity of gender and sexual orientation.

However, you must be at least 18 years of age to attend camp.

Winter Witchcamp 2012 will again be held in Western Wisconsin, just 90 minutes away from Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota.
