Introduction to Rune Magic (Matt)
Most people know the Norse Runes as a powerful system of divination. Our Nordic forebears also used the runes for several other purposes; as charms, wards, and 'spells' on one hand, and as powerful keys to unlocking the secrets of the mysteries on the other. In this workshop we will be focussing on the many uses of the Elder Futhark as a system of divination, magick, and initiatory wisdom into the mysteries of the Nordic world tree
Sunday July 13th 1-3pm $30

BOOK SIGNING "In The Heart Of Fear, One Forgets Oneself " Book Signing with local Author Greg Stroll Charity event to benefit Ami Quebec Thursday July 17th 7-9pm |
| Love, which is life's greatest weapon, life's greatest tool, inspired me to do the biggest thing I've ever done. I wrote this book as a token of appreciation for a sick friend who was more than just someone I loved. Either diabetes will take her or the efforts of the people who fight diabetes around the world will see fruition in time. Here is my contribution and best effort to see a cure happen. My name is Greg and I've been fighting my own war for years, only my enemy isn't a person: it's schizophrenia. During my first psychotic episode I undertook this project and I give you my thoughts, my paranoia, my insanity from my own perspective, with my own words. Join me in the heart of fear where I forgot who I was. (100% of my profits will be going to the Canadian Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) | |

 MISSPELLEDStrange magic... in 17 Fascinating tales of spells gone awry. When it comes to magic, skipping the directions, changing the ingredients, or garbling the words of a spell can lead to unusual consequences-sometimes dire, sometimes comical. Included in these stories are just a few of the possible results: a cybermancer has her spell disk corrupted by some unexpected input; two students brewing up spells outside the curriculum forgo a critical ingredient; a young woman orders a fairy-tale life, but forgets to read the fine print. Now they're really spellbound... Smith, John Zakour, Jim C. Hines, and others. |

| SAMARA Monday 2:00 - 5:30 pm, Tuesday 2:00 - 5:30 pm, Thursday 2:00 - 8:30; Alternating Saturdays 2:00 - 5:30. When she was yet a little child, God blessed Samara with the gift of clairvoyance. This sensitive and deeply spiritual woman uses her ability to provide dynamic and inspirational opportunities to help people break free from problems and experience richer, more rewarding lives. Though she reads auras and analyses handwriting and photographs, her favourite psychic tool is psychometry. When in session, Samara holds an object belonging to the seeker. She enters into a light trance and connects with spirit energies sent from higher realms. Many who come find the insights received from her spiritual guides to be thought-provoking and often life changing. Sessions deal with what is important in the seeker's life: relationships, career, money, work, business, investments and health. Light is shed on past difficulties, current situations and future goals; choices are revealed that will bring harmony, success and happiness into individuals' lives. |
