Together we will study trance journey techniques in a warm and accepting space, holding awareness of cultural appropriation and privilege-based power dynamics while building a group culture of curiosity, support, growth, and celebration. This course is engaging and welcoming for both beginners and advanced students.


Things you can do in trance journey include:

  • Seek additional insight about tarot readings and meaningful dreams
  • Speak with ancestors, spirit guides, animal and plant spirits, deities, and other Unseen Ones.  Ask them questions, make offerings, receive advice, etc.
  • Create and maintain altars and spellwork in the Trance Realms, where you can access them at any time.
  • Build relationships with deities and spirits in preparation for ritual work and aspecting.


Your course tuition includes instruction from Jamie and Murphy at seven 2-hour online learning sessions, held via the Zoom platform, every other Monday evening for three months. You'll also get:


✅ Supplemental reading materials for our online learning sessions.

✅ Journal prompts and self-directed assignments to support your learning process between meetings.

✅ One special Weaver “snail mail” care package per course: this might include herbs, handcrafted artwork, and/or miscellaneous magical curiosities themed to the work. We love the USPS and pray for its continued operation!

✅ Video and audio recordings of our online sessions. (Personal check-ins, sharing time in breakout groups, and circle-cast rituals will not be included in the recordings)


Our live Zoom class sessions are fun and engaging! They take place every other Monday evening, beginning January 6, 2025, from 6-8pm EST. Weekly format for live sessions:


6:00-7:00pm: Welcome. Teaching topics for the evening.

7:00-7:30pm: Comfort break and small group breakout discussions.

7:30-8:00pm: Guided trance journey, followed by time to share our experiences (if we choose). Sharing of journal prompts and invitations to practice.
