The concept of animism crops up a lot in witchy circles, but sometimes it's hard to see where the idea of spirits might fit into a skeptical or secular practice. The lovely thing about belief is that it's a spectrum, and we have plenty of room to play with the innate value and being of a tree, a river, a plant, a place without drifting into more woo than we're comfortable with. ✨ If this piques your interest, consider this your invitation to join our FREE online event next Saturday, May 30th, 2026 ✨ https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1989548712757?aff=oddtdtcreator Our seasonal Witches' Brews are FREE online witchy mini conferences that include potion making (our magical beverage segment), guest presentations, sometimes a hands-on project, and time to socialize & connect with other attendees, Brew guests & hosts, & the CTWC community. Our Brews are a wonderful way to dip your toe into the CritWitch community, and a great preview of what you can expect from our annual 3-day virtual event CRITWITCHCON. This month's Witches' Brew: Dig Into Animism features presentations by our own History Witch Lee Ignire on animism; potions (potable & otherwise) with Jul Bloomfield and Alex Wrekk; and creating our own genius loci sigil! There'll be in-event chat, plus our favorite breakout room sessions for community connection and discussion! Witches' Brews are recorded (minus community chat) and available to our paid Patreon subscribers later in the season, so you can revisit our presentations.
