Devotion to the Dark Goddess - Workshop

This workshop explores the archetypal significance of the Dark Goddess and her impact on the psyche. Gabriela Herstik talks about her many faces and myths --  beings and goddesses including Ereshkigal, Lilith, Kali, and Babalon. She then goes into ways to build rituals and practices in devotion to her, using tools like tarot, the qabalistic tree of life, sex magic, meditation, altar work, glamour, and astrology. Gabriela will also share the framework she herself uses when creating her own longform devotionals, applying this specifically to the Dark Goddess. The class concludes with a short ritual to help participants build their personal devotional practice.

   Gabriela Herstik works magically at the intersection of the esoteric and erotic. A devotee of the Goddess of Love and Lust, she is co-founder of Kink Coven, a full moon ritual play party dedicated to protecting and celebrating sex workers. She leads Sex Magick Discussion Circle (just what it sounds like) monthly on Zoom. She is author of three books.
