Weaving the Web: Invocation
Join us in-person or online for our weekly Community Night: an open, cross-tradition discussion space where we learn, share, and build community together. We gather every Wednesday evening for discussion, meditation, ritual nights, and more, with time to socialize before and after.
Schedule:
We start at 6:00pm for casual social time, then at 6:30pm we begin the main discussion (and stream it live on YouTube). After the formal portion ends, we usually keep the Zoom call open a bit longer for chatting as folks head out.
This week's topic: Invocation
In Wiccan tradition, invocation isn’t just inviting a presence into your space; it’s becoming a vessel through which deity, elemental forces, or your own higher self can speak and act. We’ll cover how invocation differs from evocation, why knowing the being you’re calling matters, how to choose strong epithets and set clear boundaries, and practical ways to prepare and close your work safely. Whether you’re curious about subtle inspiration or full-body devotional practice, this discussion will unpack how to work with invocation consciously, grounded, and with your sovereignty intact.
Format: discussion. You're welcome to participate as a skeptic, a mystic, or a "I have no idea what I believe but I'm curious" person.
Join options (hybrid):
- In-person: Weavers of the Web, ATC (Lansing)
- Online: Join via Zoom for interaction, or via YouTube to watch
Can't make it live?
Secure recordings of discussions are available to Patreon subscribers at the Bobbin level and above (ritual recordings at the Balanced level and above.)
What to bring (optional but helpful): a notebook, water, and a grounded body. If you're joining from home, set up a cozy ritual space (with candles, incense, etc.) so you can drop into the practice more easily.
