The 7th Season of the Witch Virtual Conference 2026

Merry Meet and Welcome to you magickal souls!!!!

Well, right at the beginning of this month, it was time for the SEVENTH annual Season of the Witch Virtual Conference hosted by Wise Woman Witchery!!!! It's amazing to think that these conferences started in 2020 but they are so popular and every year, more and more people sign up.

I will always try to sign up to these conferences because I always learn so much but by paying for the VIP access, I can revisit any of the workshops at any time in the future. This was handy for this conference because I missed a few workshops (thanks to not feeling well but also Formula 1 events and dodgy sleep).

This year, there was a bonus class that was hosted before the main conference and it was Glamour Magick, run by Wise Woman Witchery's Emily Morrison. It was certainly interesting as Emily mentioned that this type of magick isn't just about aligning specific wardrobe choices with particular intentions, like wearing red for passion or gold for success. It can also be used to connect with specific energies and archetypes, plus deities.

The first workshop of the first full day started with The Magic of Embodied Paradox, run by Michelle Green. This was interesting as Michelle spoke about duality and how we hold this within ourselves as well as the wider community. While I'm not comfortable with or into the same things that Michelle does as part of her practice, I can appreciate how it helps other people. Even just listening to Michelle leaves me with plenty to think about.

The second workshop was Ditch the Guidebook & Read Between the Cards: An Intuitive Approach to Tarot with Aurelie Vancoppenolle. I really enjoyed this workshop as Aurelie spoke about how to read tarot without using a guidebook, something that I try to do as often as possible. Something Aurelie mentioned was that reading tarot is not about memorising meanings because tarot itself is a language. I am looking forward to coming back to what I learned from Aurelie as I deepen my relationship and understanding of my various tarot decks.

The third workshop was Unlocking the Dark Goddess: Mysteries for Shadow Work with Natalie Garcia. This was really intriguing to me as I don't really work with any deities but I'm not averse to working with them in the future. Natalie explained what Dark Goddesses are, and it's not what I thought or expected. Some goddesses were given as examples of who could be worked with and what for. A general invocation was also given as well as a meditation for connecting with either a specific Dark Goddess or the archetype itself.

The fourth workshop was Cast in Silver: Witchcraft & Spirituality in the Cinema with Lilith Dorsey. I love to learn from Lilith and this workshop didn't disappoint as she covered a very long list of films that have portrayed spirituality and/or witchcraft. I will admit that there are plenty on that list that I won't be watching, purely because I'm not a fan of horror films but there are plenty that I can explore in the future or ones that I can rewatch.

The fifth workshop was Working with the Dark Moon for Shadow & Pleasure with Tenae Stewart. This was all about combining Shadow Work with pleasure while also breaking the idea that shadow work is either good or bad, instead of a balance of both. But this was also about how to connect with the Moon in its Dark phase, which is similar to the New Moon but not the same. This was one of those workshops I will be coming back to in the future.

The sixth workshop was Beyond Yes & No: Pendulum Selection with Tarot, Crystals & Other Tools with Leticia Ferrer. I'm not someone who likes to use a pendulum within my divinations because I've found I can influence what my pendulum does too easily. However, I've never really considered using a pendulum with another divination tool. It might be something I explore in the future but for right now, it's information I have learned.

The final workshop of day one was Traveling to the Crossroads with Hecate with Irisanya Moon. I love to learn from Irisanya, especially when it comes to Hecate. Irisanya describes any Goddess as a person I could have a relationship with, not just a higher power that is unapproachable. There was plenty of information but also a guided meditation where I met Hecate as I walked a path that contained a crossroads.

The first workshop of day two was Bad Guys of the Plant World: Reclaiming the Weeds & Working with Essence of the Plants Most Gardeners Hate with Rachel Roberts. I love to see weeds, especially dandelions, because they seem to grow despite adversity and in places we might not expect them to grow. But Rachel emphasised that they are still plants that can be connected with. She even gave four examples of weeds and what they could be helpful with, as well as elemental associations.

The second workshop was Activate Your Intuition & Spiritual Gifts with Sekhem Healing with Desiree Diaz. This was a long meditation that I will admit to needing to rewatch several times to really integrate this. Sekhem Healing is an elemental energy based healing practice believed to originate from Egypt, a practice with the heart at the centre of this practice. It was certainly interesting and I do look forward to watching the replay.

The third workshop was Awaken the Witch Within with Melissa St. Hilaire. Melissa is always a joy to learn from and this workshop didn't disappoint. She presented an idea that less is more when it comes to spells and that using 3 ingredients is likely to be most effective. I have learned this lesson the hard way myself but I don't use just 3 ingredients as sometimes up to 6 feel right to me. However, it was certainly an interesting idea to revisit. Melissa also led a guided meditation to discover something we might want to do a spell about but I didn't feel like I needed a spell right then. It is something I can come back to though.

The fourth workshop was Intuitive Plant Communication & Flower Essences with Emelina Law. Emelina is so knowledgeable about plants and I really do love to learn from her. In this workshop, she spoke about how to develop a deeper connection with plants and then how to make a flower essence, while acknowledging that there are some plants that are not safe for ingestion or touching skin. Again, this is something I'll be coming back to in the future as I work on my potion-making.

The fifth workshop was Air & Fire: The Collective Shift with Christine Michelle. This was really interesting as it was all about astrology and how there is an elemental shift taking place that will last for the better part of the next decade. Air brings all the ideas while Fire brings the passion and excitement. It was so in depth and I really do need to sit down and take my time with this to integrate the knowledge Christine presented.

The penultime workshop was The 7 Body Agreements with Karena Osborne. This was really deep and was about the seven chakras with a singular focus for each. I may end up doing a whole post on these or a series on them as each one deserves to have attention and focus on just them. I love any workshop hosted by Karena and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

The final workshop was The Temple of No with Angelina Caporale. This was all about respect around boundaries and the word/sentence "no". It came as a reminder not to agree to too much or too many projects. Angelina led a guided meditation to learn a personal symbol for this exercise and mine was a hand held up but with the palm facing outward (towards anyone facing me). I also received the message that "no, I am enough", which was definitely a welcome idea for me to bring into the rest of my life.

Overall, this entire conference was amazing!!!! I have ideas and plenty of things to think about and integrate into my life. It looks as if I might be rather busy over the coming winter months but I don't mind.

I cannot recommend signing up for these conferences enough as they are completely stuffed with knowledge and inspiration. Keep an eye on Wise Woman Witchery's website to get updates about the next virtual conference!

Peace and love to all!!!!
