The Sphinx, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human or an animal, holds profound spiritual significance in various cultures worldwide, particularly in Egypt and Greece.

Seiðr + Stone is a 9-week journey into the traditions of the Norse Völva, uncovering the often-overlooked feminine aspects of Northern magic. Together, we’ll explore seiðr practices like journeying, prophecy, and spirit connection through the lens of goddess stories, the Völuspá, and the Eddas. We’ll dive into the history and meaning of the Völva’s sacred tools—such as the staff, seiðr platform, and stones—then engage creatively by crafting and consecrating them, infusing each with personal intention for our own practices.

The most famous poem about a Volva is the Völuspá from the Poetic Edda, where Odin summons the spirit of a deceased Volva to reveal the story of creation and the end of the world. She says:

"I see the beginning of the world, I see the end of the gods, I see the coming of the great winter."

The Völva is the seer and wise woman of Norse tradition, wielding the sacred tools of Seiðr magic and earth-based spirituality. Over nine weeks, this hands-on course invites you to craft, learn, and practice using these ancient tools in your modern spiritual practice.

We will focus on the different tools of the Völva, blending creation with practice, including: 1

Weaving, Spinning, and Threads of Intention: Learn to weave your intentions into the fabric of fate.

Spirit and Veil: Explore the veil between worlds to deepen your connection with spirit.

Seiðstafr & Seiðhjallr (Staff and Seat): Craft and use these sacred implements for ritual and magic.

Voice / Galdr: Harness the power of sound and sacred song for spellwork and energy weaving.

Gandrsekkja (Seiðr Pouch): Create a magical pouch to hold your tools and personal power.

Seiðstein (Seiðr Stones) and Bones: Work with stones and bones for divination and healing.

Working with the Dísir: Honor and connect with the ancestral feminine spirits.

Each class is recorded for ease of access, and our circle will be supported by a Facebook group for shared wisdom and kinship. As with all Alberta Goddess Temple offerings, payment plans are available. Join us, Sister, to honor the stones and stories beneath our feet, reclaim the ancient tools of the Völva, and awaken her power within you. 

This course combines storytelling, ritual, and hands-on creation to help you build a deeper connection to the earth, the feminine divine, and your own inner wisdom. Join us for a journey of crafting, learning, and becoming.

Step into the ancient story of Inanna’s descent, one of the oldest written tales in human history. This powerful Sumerian goddess offers a timeless lesson of transformation as she bravely journeys into the underworld, shedding layers, facing shadows, and emerging renewed. Her story, though thousands of years old, speaks directly to the challenges and opportunities of our modern lives, inviting us to explore our own depths and reclaim the light waiting on the other side.

Over four weeks, we will walk Inanna’s path, moving through the seven gates of release and rebirth. Together, we’ll reflect on personal boundaries, let go of fears that hold us back, and rediscover parts of ourselves that have been hidden or forgotten. Through storytelling, ritual, journaling, and the support of a nurturing community, you’ll find the courage to descend, release what no longer serves, and rise into your truest self.

Classes are recorded for ease and flexibility, with a private Facebook group for sharing wisdom and sisterhood. Payment plans are available through the Alberta Goddess Temple, ensuring this sacred journey is open to all who feel called to step into the transformative power of Inanna’s ancient wisdom.
