09-27-2025 The Myth and Magic of Baba Yaga
Baba Yaga is the enigmatic witch of the forest, revered and feared as a powerful spirit across all Slavic lands. Often portrayed as a dangerous old woman who brings chaos and destruction, but is that her real story?
Join us for a captivating journey into the world of Baba Yaga, where you'll gain a deeper understanding of this fascinating figure and her enduring legacy in folklore. In this workshop, you will have the chance to dive deep into the multifaceted nature of this powerful crone spirit and unravel the myths that have surrounded her for centuries.
What better time to explore Baba Yaga's magic than the Autumn Equinox? This seasonal shift signals the height of the harvest season and urges us to spend time in the abundance of community. This season is marked by themes of aging, wisdom, and the gathering of resources for the winter ahead.
