Queer Craft is an event we held in our previous Eugene Location. It is an LGBTQ & NB - Moon and Magick Circle. It is not to say that this circle is only for those whom identify with this diverse group but instead, it is meant to be a group for and by those who would like to have a practice outside of the male and female identities or traditional orientations. The moon will be full on the 21st in Libra. It is a time for seeking balance. We will delve into sharing ourselves and stepping away from the concept of the “good witch” by embracing ourselves as a whole.Led by Noah Griffin Baelfire Willis, Fiona Doria and Erika Fortner. Astrology information provided by Cristina Farella ~ AstrologerSliding scale of $8-12 to cover the cost of the space and hosts.
