Saturday 5 September • 10:00–13:00
Gogo’s Garden Apothecary • R550 per person
Join us for the very first of our new Magick Mornings at Gogo’s Garden — relaxed Saturday gatherings devoted to folk magic, practical spirituality and learning something wonderful with your own two hands.
For our first morning, you’ll create your own personalised Spell Kit, filled with carefully chosen magical tools and ingredients for blessing, protection, prosperity and everyday workings. Along the way, we’ll explore how these traditional items are used, how to work with them respectfully, and how to bring a little practical magic into everyday life.
All materials are included, and you’ll take your completed kit home with you.
KIRTAN BY CANDLELIGHT
KIRTAN BY CANDLELIGHT
Wednesday 9 September • 19:15–20:30
Afrishanti • R180 per person
Come as you are, take a seat by candlelight, and join us for an evening of sacred chanting, music and community.
This month we will focus on the devotional songs of Paramahansa Yogananda.
Kirtan is a simple devotional practice in which mantra and sacred names are sung together in a relaxed call-and-response style. You don’t need to be able to sing, know the chants, or follow any particular spiritual tradition. Simply bring your voice — or sit quietly and receive.
A gentle mid-month opportunity to reconnect, open the heart and spend an evening in good company.
