Temple of the Sun 2018

Welcome to the Temple of the Sun Studies 2018

Each year the Pagan Experience Study Group has a themed focus for the year’s coursework. The year I am pleased to announce the studies will explore the Solar Mysteries in the Temple of the Sun.

About Temple of the Sun 2018:

This year’s offering of classes focuses on the Sun in all of its forms, astronomical, astrological and its use for Solar Magick. Although many of the sessions will have an emphasis on the Egyptian alchemy and pantheon, the work will be presented in a way of application that will easily apply to any spiritual/magickal practice.

Solar Magick: The Journey of the Solar Barque

About:
This workshop will explore the journey of the Solar Barque of the ancient Egyptians in which Ra, the Supreme Solar God, was believed to traverse the sky each day and pass through the realms of the underworld (Du’at) each night on another solar barge to reappear in the east every morning. This is the story of the Sun on any given day and the turning away from its light as we enter the time of night.  Discussion of the luminaries that travel with RA, the changing of Ra’s identification and the battle with the great serpent in the Underworld are some of the topics to be covered.

As we move through this journey in our weekly sessions, the deeper application metaphorically and literally in our magical and spiritual practice will be revealed as we claim our place as RA.  This workshop will be a balanced offering of experiential, theory and tools for practical application.

FEE: $70
Length: Each weekly session is 2.5 hrs.

Ma’at and Order in the Chaos: The Hermetic Laws in Action

About:

This 6-week series will explore the concept of Ma’at as both the form of Goddess and as the embodiment and ideology of Order. This necessary Order maintained the balance of a universe that was by nature, borne of chaos in accord with the universal laws.

We begin our series with celebration of the Autumnal Equinox and end with a special calling to the Ancestors as we pave the way for Samhain.

We will discuss the Universal Laws that flow through all of life’s workings and the Hermetic principles that engage and act upon these laws as Ma’at exacts Her order.

As a special component of this series, on Tuesday, October 23rd we will stand in ritual and seek the blessings of the Ancestors as we part the Veils and commune with our beloveds. For more information and to RSVP, please visit the FB event page for this special event:
