EP 69 : Live from Vancouver Pagan Pride Days

Vancouver’s Pagan Pride aka Pagan Awareness Day is I my most favorite event to be a part of in the lower mainland.

I actually found out about it when I was just stepping out of the broom closet, and would go and brows venders with a few girlfriends. Now, I have had a my own booth there for I think about 5 years. I have participated as a reader, as a vender and now I bring the podcast there too.

The energy there is fabulous so many open spiritual people having fun and enjoying the day doing workshops and checking out the unique vendors.

I want to share this event with you my dear coven member so that you can feel the community connectedness that I do when I am there. I also want to highlight the artisan venders who do such beautiful work. Sadly I could not get quotes from everyone, the VPP days website has a full list of the vendors.

follow the links that resonate and you might find your next witchy purchase that completes you alter

 that is what I love so much about VPP  community connections are made at this event. 
 
I run into friends that i haven't seen in months and often didn't know they were coming, and I connect with community friends that I rarely get to see because of our busy schedules. 

I shared my booth with the lovely Lisa Ayres - Reiki master and Author of the "Healing with KI" we shared so many laughs and didn't take a single photo 

If you are not familiar with her book or system of Reiki " Drawing Down the Moon" then pop in your earbuds and meet Lisa in EP 46

Chrystal Raven Studios

you all know how much I love tarot decks so when I saw this indie deck by Crystal Raven Studios I had to talk with her and play with it.

The Vaspertine Tarot

• The card stock is nice and easy to handle
• the art is vibrant with deliberate use of colour accents
• the animals depicted look and feel like spirit helpers

its brand new and you can order one from Crystal Raven through her IG @chrystal_raven_studios

Made by Morgan –

☆☆☆Mystifying And Irregular Designs ☆☆☆

What caught my eye in Morgan’s booth were these beautiful oranges that had been made into wind chimes and earings. They looked so happy and yummy at the same time.

Connect with Morgan via her IG @maidbymorgan

I wanted to bring you everything I could the day of celebration and community we had. So this moon’s episode include my workshop.

Pull up a chair or piece of a blanket and sit circle with me as we talk about

Tarot as a Tool

I teach about how we can use our decks as a magical tool.

our conversation flows in the circle and has an informal feel to it. I have cut some parts and done my best to protect the anonymity of anyone who asked questions while still giving you the answers to they were seeking.
