You’ve stared up at the night sky, you’ve tracked the dance of planets through horoscopes and transit charts and perhaps now find yourself longing to have a deeper, more personal, more tangible relationship with these celestial beings.

Did you know that, like us, plants have horoscopes? Shaped by the same energetic influences, they bear the imprint and energies of the Cosmos, growing in your front yard. We may never reach Mars, but we can experience its sharp heat through the nettle plant!

This workshop explores the foundations of the Seven Planets and some Plant Folk who, in my experience and opinion, mirror their energy and being. Each planet and plant discussed will be accompanied by a recipe or activity to help us physically engage with both our celestial and terrestrial community. They include crafting a lunar massage oil over the course of the lunar cycle, blending Saturnian smoke medicine to use for ritual observance (or enjoy after a long day), and making a very special flower essence to honor boundaries - the “skin of all things.”

Registrants will receive a recording of the workshop as well as a booklet with notes, instructions and recipes.

THIS IS A VIRTUAL WORKSHOP; Students must have an audio- and video-enabled laptop, desktop, or tablet with reliable internet to participate in class. We do not recommend using a smartphone. 

Cost is $35

How often did we play the 'desert island challenge' in grade school and spend hours agonizing over which five books or three favorite foods we'd want with us? The game continues...

I've been asked which herbs I'd want with me on a desert island so often that I went and made an entire workshop about it. July's "cheap & casual" Zoom meet will be an in-depth discussion of the five AMAZING herbs on my Desert Island List. The best way to learn about herbs? Start slow, start small. Be thorough. Get to know them in their wholeness.

I like to say that, for daily applications at least, you don't need to know a few facts about a hundred different herbs, it really works to know a hundred things about a few herbs.

Here are my most reached for friends; the folks on my shelves, in my emergency bag and probably somewhere on my person! Let's chat about WHY these are my forever answer to that age old question, and how you too can develop a confident working relationship with a handful of allies perfectly suited to your desert island needs.

The Deets:

Sunday July 30th

6:00pm-8:00pm

$10 {if this amount is prohibitive for you, please let me know. No one will be turned away for lack of funds}

All registrants will receive a recording of the workshop as well as any notes and handouts offered.

One of my favorite ways to engage with my birth chart {beside using it as permission to assert my Scorpio-ness at every opportunity} is as a wayfinding tool. Wayfinding is the art of knowing where you are and where you've been so that you can get to where you're going. It's staying in alignment with your Path regardless of the ever-shifting cosmic landscape, incidental detours and our own life's distractions. When I'm feeling disoriented or I find myself at a crossroads and have a hard time choosing a direction, I like to take out my chart and recalibrate. I also do this around my birthday, at the start of a new project, or when I read a post online that makes me question every life choice I've ever made {you know the kind}. 

In this workshop, I'm hoping to offer you some tips and tricks for wayfinding with your own birth chart using five placements that make up an energetic compass of sorts. Bring your chart, we'll look at it together and see what's to be seen. 

This is a 90-120 minute workshop, depending on folks' participation. Everyone will get a copy of their birth chart {if you want one, be sure to let me know your accurate birth date, time and place!!} as well as a handy-dandy worksheet you can take home and use in your wayfinding work FOREVER.

Cost $30 {financially supported seats available upon request}

This is a live class in Blue Hill, Maine, hosted by The Nurtured Life.

The SIXTH in this utterly delightful {for me at least!!} series of "Cheap & Casual" Zoom workshops is "in a cave where gods can't see - a divergent perspective on Chiron in the birth chart".
I can't say that I'm able to offer much of an elevated, poetic, mythic perspective on Chiron. My experience with this energy has been bloody at best, my arms are covered in scars from where it has clawed at me, my belly has long been sore from its umbilical attachment. It is the prism through which my vital force has fractured itself in the most gorgeous and terrible ways. I am not the one to offer answers, but if you would like to take part in a compassionate conversation about holding Chiron with softer hands, you are most welcome to join us.
We'll be exploring some of the most traditional ideas of Chiron, as well as some divergent perspectives. I would love to walk through the way the elements express Chiron, as well as how I've seen Chiron react in relationship with other planetary beings in our charts. It is also my hope to offer some plant allies I have worked alongside to bring ease to our handling of this often bruised placement.

Bring your birth chart if you would like to {if you need help finding one - let me know, I can help!} but it is not required. And, as always, if you have questions, please feel free to reach out.

Date: Saturday, June 10th
Time: 10am-12pm
Price: ten dollars / free for Junkyard Alligator Folks
Location: Zoom, with a recording provided for all

This may be the most unusual workshop I've offered and I'm here for it!
Literally - I'll be teaching it and therefore the most HERE I can humanly be.

If you're looking for a challenging and somewhat divergent perspective on developing a working relationship with Plant and Planetary energies, you may consider joining us, or at least registering so as to get the recording.

~ Engaging with the energetic echoes radiating from your own unique birth chart
~ How to explore and strengthen relationship with planetary expressions energies you *don't* have in your birth chart
~ Working with planets in their various dignities {explore the nuance involved in planets "at home", "in detriment" and "in fall"}
~ Plant allies that support such workings and wonderings
~ Shepherding shifts using astroherbal sigils

Is this a workshop to teach you how to 'do magic'? Not really, no. This is a short waltz through one strange mind that will hopefully inspire you to explore yet another facet of your relationship to the plant and planetary communities. My favorite part of my work with folks is watching them put their hands on the Wheel - perhaps for the first time - and start Engaging. Sometimes that looks like taking an herbal supplement, sometimes it looks like changing jobs, sometimes it looks like shifting one thought in their mind with a flower essence, sometimes it looks like channeling Mars in Cancer with a sigil drawn on a bay leaf in their shoe before their day in court.

I'm a very commonplace, hedge-dwelling individual who is only able to teach that which I know. It is my goal to offer information with accessible depth - I hope that the rawest souls are able to grasp information that supports their growth, and I hope that well-seasoned souls find thoughts that challenge and sharpen what they already Know.

*Saturday, May 13th
*Zoom
*10:00am-11:30am
*$10 to register; all those who register will receive a copy of the recorded Zoom class and the multi-page pdf handout

High-Vibe, eclectic maker’s market!

I’m so very excited for the class I’m offering with @themagickmakers in March.
‘Time’ may be something of a social construct, but energetic and seasonal shifts are as real as it gets! If you’ve ever felt resistance, discomfort or disgruntlement when it’s time to move from one state to another - whether it’s settling into Autumn after Summer, adjusting to a change in daily activity, moving into a different time of life, or simply shifting from Sunday to Monday morning- our Plant and Planetary communities have a great deal of wisdom and support to offer.
The ‘Shifting’ is a potent place, this workshop will explore some ways we can work with plant allies, flower essences and rituals to engage with intention and ease.

For more information, and to register, visit The Magick Maker’s Website: Hands-On Shifts Workshop with Andrea Webb — The Magick Makers

You asked for another "cheap & casual" workshop and I said,
"Oh Hell Yeah..."
February 25th, my fellows.
Join us live or enjoy the recording of this casual workshop focused on herbal allies to support your Mind & Mood.
We'll be in my kitchen again, brewing up some herbal infusions, formulating tincture blends and even creating some topical preparations.
If you've ever googled "herbs for stress" and then been overwhelmed by the results, or tried to work with an herb that was "supposed" to help you chill out but ended up doing the opposite (or nothing at all!), if you've ever wondered which herbs prefer to be in a tea rather than a tincture, or wanted to find a couple of plant allies that are aligned with your unique energy and needs - you may want to check this out.
The workshop will be recorded and sent to everyone who registers along with a printable download with plant profiles, notes, techniques and formulas.
Come as you are - in pajamas, eating breakfast, or even at a later date. I may show up looking like some kind of hobo-homesteader, but that's part of the charm of it all...

*Saturday, February 25th
*10:00am-12:00pm EST
*Register by messaging me, or by sending $10 via Venmo (@EveryLightWellness) or PayPal (everylightwellness@gmail.com)
*If you would like to sponsor spot, you are most welcome to! We were able to offer several free seats to folks last time and it really worked out well, THANK YOU!!!
*If you need a sponsored spot, let me know and we'll hook you up.
*Recordings will be sent to folks who register *only*. It will not be sold afterwards.
*Got questions?? I've got answers!! (about this workshop, that is - I can't promise I have answers for a damn thing otherwise)
*See you there!

Hey there, fellow DIY enthusiast. I'm pleased to announce this online workshop that will {hopefully} be the start of something strange and wonderful.
A two-hour, $10 workshop offered through Zoom, attend in your pjs at the kitchen table or watch the recording {because there will be one...} at your leisure.
I'm curious to see how this will manifest itself as we poke at it and work with it!
Here's the vision - I'm going to set my camera up in my own kitchen {duh, duh, duuuuuuh} and teach while actually doing the things I'm talking about - make a salve, a tea, a syrup and a tincture, etc. I'll even share what I'm planning on making before so, if you want, you can have some things on hand and we can pretend we're in the *same* kitchen doing it *together*. Questions welcomed.
Or, we'll be recording, so you can go back at some point and rewatch it as you're doing your own thing in your own kitchen. There's also a multi-page, overly detailed pdf printable with notes, recipes, technique & instructions, and some other stuff thrown in for good measure, if that's more your learning style.
Because I like big notes, and I cannot lie.
There is fun here, if we want it, and the Aquarian sort of online fellowship so many of us are so very grateful for in these tremendous days of our collective "Find Out" era.

You've stared up at the night sky, you've tracked the dance of planets through horoscopes and transit charts and perhaps now find yourself longing to have a deeper, more personal, more *tangible* relationship with these celestial beings.

It is unlikely that you and I will ever step foot on Mars, or shake Jupiter's hand in orbit - but thankfully, that is not necessary!

For millennia, humankind has engaged with our celestial neighbors through their echoes on the earth - Plant Folk. Did you know that, like us, plants have horoscopes? Shaped by the same energetic influences, they bear the imprint and energies of the Cosmos- growing in your front yard. We may never reach Mars, but we can experience its sharp heat through the Nettle plant!

This workshop explores the foundations of the Seven Planets and some Plant Folk who, in my experience and opinion, mirror their energy and Being. Each planet and plant discussed will be accompanied by a recipe or activity to help us physically engage with both our Celestial and Terrestrial community.

Here it is- *the birth chart workshop*
The moment we are separate from our parent’s body, the celestial community pauses their orbital dance and huddles close to gaze at the newcomer.
They are gigantic, ancient bodies pulsing with Life and Being and as we are first exposed to their faces, like soft clay, we receive an imprint from their energetic radiance.
The Sun leaned in and through the lens of Scorpio, colored my essential being. Mercury in its lush, Libran robes left its mark on my mind, and the Moon - positively ablaze with passion and intuitive Leonine fire had its influence on my emotions and moods.
The echo of their imprint lives on through me; you can see it in my character, my purpose, my path, my challenges and my strengths.
Being able to SEE and GRASP these foundational aspects of my self has been an absolute game-changer. Literally- I know what game I’m playing now, and what tools and assets I have at my disposal, as well as what the end goal looks like.
More than just witty sayings about Sun Signs on the internet, digging deep into our birth chart offers us the chance to Understand ourselves and Engage in our evolutionary path- develop who it is we are meant to Be.

This workshop is for those looking for that foundational understanding of self; who they are and why, and what for?
We will interactively work through the Planetary Beings, the Zodiac signs and the Houses of the birth chart, together. Everyone will have a chance to explore their own chart and will leave with a few helpful graphs and charts for further diving.
*Registration is required*
Cost: $30
Date: October 22nd, 2022
Time: 10:00am
Requirements: none, but if you want to work through your chart with the group you will need to supply us with your date, time and place of birth
Accessible Depth Level: Whether you’re comfortable with words like ‘retrograde’ and ‘conjunction’ or have no idea what your ‘rising sign’ is, you will be able to engage with this workshop!

I felt like I was in my element, with my people, talking about herbs and bones and flower essences and astrology- it was Amazing and I’m thrilled to be headed back in October with more essences, more salves and a couple of very special ✨new✨ offerings I’m working on. I’ll also be offering micro flower essence consults again - come chat for a minute and leave with a custom flower essence blended specifically for you.
I can’t say enough good things about the other vendors (I fangirled so hard the entire time) as well as the spectacular host, @shopritualmaine, who curated such a kick-ass experience!

✨Ritual Market is a high vibe, eclectic market hosted in central Maine offering a curated selection of metaphysical, herbal, handcrafted, and intentionally sourced goods. We gather multiple times a year to offer a supportive, welcoming environment to connect and share our products with the public!

✨Food trucks, music, a non-profit booth- all located on the grass in the heart of Stevens Commons.
