Witch-Crafternoon for Samhain
It’s that time of year when the veil thins, the air crisps, and suddenly everyone remembers they might actually be a witch.
Join us for a Samhain “Witch-Crafternoon” — a day of nature connection (we might talk the trees), gentle candle magic, handmade crafts and drumming, designed for the witch-curious, magic-practicing, or simply autumn-enjoying souls among us.
✨ What’s Brewing:
🪦 Cemetery Nature Walk and Connection
A grounding moment to connect with the turning Wheel of the Year, the significance of Samhain (Halloween) and how it connects us to our ancestors and witchy lineage.
We’ll start with a stroll through Merthyr Dyfan Cemetery, tuning into ancestral whispers, curious crows and nature’s quiet presence. Expect folklore, quiet reflection, and connection on this magical turning of the wheel of the year.
🍁Foraged Crafting Session
Gather sticks, leaves and natural trinkets to create your own pentagram charm or spiderweb talisman — good for protection, decoration, or simply getting your craft on
🕯️Simple Candle Spell
Create a candle spell intention and use herbs and spices to enhance the magic
🥁Drum Circle
Bring a drum, rattle, saucepan lid or simply your hands. Rhythm will be found one way or another! A witch chant may happen (no drumming experience necessary!)
🍎Seasonal Treats
Think cake, mulled cider and sweet goodies
🧙 Who’s Welcome?
Everyone.
All genders, all ages, all belief systems (including “I just came for cake”).
No witchcraft experience required — if you can walk, laugh or hold a stick, you qualify.
