Saturday August 8th, 1 to 4 pm, Medicine Pouch Workshop
Learn to make a leather medicine pouch with your own special mojo!
No experience necessary, just a willingness to give it a go. All materials provided. Choose from a variety of colors/types of leather as well as your own special chosen bead button made of organic materials. We also have herbal medicine goodies that you may place inside your bag such as plains sage, osha root, sweetgrass, and more. Bring your own special item such as a crystal, fur, or whatever small sacred object you feel called to wear as medicine.
We will share a discussion about magikal medicines. Prayers/intention will accompany our shared crafting ritual making your pouch AND our circle even more powerful!
Class is held outdoors in our grassy Lafayette backyard in the shade under our trees.
The use of special pouches or containers for healing on both the practical level and the spiritual/energetic levels have long been used cross culturally for as long as the concept of healing and medicine have existed in human history.
Sometimes in the form of talismans or amulets, a personal medicine bag, historically, might contain sacred objects that symbolize personal well-being and tribal identity. Traditionally, medicine bags are worn under the clothing. Their contents are private, secret, and are not intended for display.
