Location – Ocean County Historical Society, 26 Hadley Avenue, Toms River, NJ Sunday, May 7th at 2:00 PM “The Traditions of Healing Music,” by Bonnie Leigh Historically, many societies and cultures have deemed music to be very powerful. It can affect all aspects of our life -- to include being used to aid in relaxation, and even to help the sick and dying. In this program, you will learn about the different types of music that have historically been used, and can still be used, for different situations in our lives. Bonnie Leigh is a Certified Music Practitioner who uses music to help patients in hospitals, nursing homes, assisted livings, and private homes. She personally plays the small harp and the Appalachian Mountain Dulcimer. She has been performing and teaching traditional folk music across the northeast coast since the early 1990s, to include previous visits to the Ocean County Historical Society, and at Allaire Historic Village.

Elemental Witchcraft – Air
Elemental Witchcraft – Air
An elemental witch is one who works with one specific element or all of the elements in order to manifest their desired results. Each element holds power and wisdom over a specific part of nature, which is why as witches we may call on all the elements when we want to perform ritual or create a spell. This series will aid you in beginning your journey, or serve as a refresher, through the pentacle path by focusing on one of the five elements in a non-denominational setting. This particular class will begin the circle by focusing on the Air element. Do you think you’re an Air elemental witch? Are you drawn to this element more than the others? Let’s find out together! We will discuss what the element of Air rules over, correspondences such as deities, herbs, and crystals, how to connect with the element by examples of spells and activities, and then we will join in a brief meditation to begin your journey with the element of Air! Some handouts will be provided but we strongly encourage you to bring a notebook dedicated to your pentacle path journey.
