Forging Magical Partnerships
Strengthening the Bonds of Intimacy and Love

Joyful relationships set the stage for a happy life. But cultivating the pull that draws partners together isn’t easy when there’s work to be done and challenges to face. For those who want to combine life partnership and spiritual practice, the challenges seem even greater: how can you keep it together--and keep it holy--while staying on top of your day-to-day responsibilities? Where can you find the support you need to strengthen your relationship while feeding its spiritual and energetic needs?

The goal of this workshop is to help you do just that. We will create a safe space in which to guide you as you explore your connection, re-energize its bonds and heal unacknowledged rifts. This two-day workshop for couples, triads and magical partners of all kinds will lead you through a series of group, partnered and individual exercises that allow you to open to the greater possibilities between you. We’ll start by identifying exactly where you are. Each couple or group will move through a diagnostic process designed to help clarify current patterns of relating and disconnecting. You’ll have the opportunity to identify the beliefs beneath your most common habits, while uncovering energetic patterns that either promote or block deeper connection.

Next, we’ll explore what you most want as opposed to what you have: are you truly fed by what you’ve created, or could you blossom by reaching out for more? Where do you really want to go together? Through facilitated exercises and interactive play, we’ll see where you might be able to go. Finally, we’ll begin the scary and delightful work of renewing the connection between you energetically, emotionally, sensually, and where appropriate, erotically.

This workshop will require serious focus: it is designed for committed partners and magical collaborators rather than individuals. Enrollment is limited in order to allow all participants to receive the attention they need. Arrive ready to work hard, play hard, enjoy each other and open to new possibilities between you. You should be comfortable with moderate self-disclosure, both group and partnered energetic work and be able to move about freely.

Each participant should bring a fresh, empty notebook, a blanket or padded throw, a portable chair, a pillow and comfortable clothes that allow for free movement. Nudity is not required. Enrollees will be asked to fill out a pre-conference questionnaire and participate in a multi-part Tarot reading.
