Gwion
Gwion: I've been a practicing witch, teacher, and ritualist in the Reclaiming Tradition since 2003. I love being in service with this community of witches and world changers. My own magic, my own way of changing the world is through devotional practice. It's my belief that we can re-enchant our lives by re-framing the so-called "mundane" as sacred and divine. By imbuing the familiar with a sense of wonder and infusing daily life with acts of magic, I choose to make all of life devotion. I'm a Gardnerian Wiccan, Reclaiming initiate, and published author.
Honeycomb Heart
Honeycomb Heart has been a practicing witch for 25 years and finally found her community with North Bay Reclaiming in 2011. She has been member of the North Bay Ritual Planning Cell and has helped to craft and priestess many rituals, public and private, for several years. Dedicated to Inanna, Honeycomb is both a love priestess and a keeper of the Mes. She practices working with kundalini energy, exploring the magic of sensuality and desire and the healing powers of the heart. She strives to fall in love with the multiverse.
Irisanya
Irisanya (she/her) I’m a Witch. I'm a writer. I'm a priestess, teacher, drummer, feminist, and initiate in the Reclaiming tradition. I serve the gods, my community, and the Earth. I've called myself a Witch for nearly 20 years, and my life has been infused with magick. I am interested in shifting stories - the ones we tell ourselves and the ones that are told about us. I'm continuously inspired to engage as the storyteller and the story, the words and the spaces between. I am a devotee of Aphrodite, Hecate, the Norns, and Iris. I seek to find love and to inspire love by reminding us we are not alone, while also meeting myself at the crossroads, holding the threads of life, and bringing down messages from the gods.
You can see my schedule of classes, writings, rambles, and nature pictures at www.irisanya.com, and I blog mostly weekly at Patheos Pagan (https://www.patheos.com/blogs/chargedbythegoddess/).

Justin
Justin: I am a hetero, cis, white male (he/him) that has been involved in the Reclaiming tradition since 2009. I currently live on unceded land of the Wappo, Pomo, and Coastal Miwok peoples, 50 miles north of San Francisco. Being away from my place of birth for an extended time has taught me about the importance of place; the history, the rhythms, the music that reside within us as well as the land itself. I am radical introvert that embraces the power of watching, listening, and holding the edges. My spiritual wanderings have focused on ecstatic experience towards reclamation of the body and psyche as fluid, sensual, rhythmic, creative, and powerful expressions of being. As a trauma therapist, I have developed a deep awareness of the ways in which folx become disconnected from these expressions. My daily challenge is to journey along with clients on the winding internal paths to reclaim their story, see their inner beauty and resilience, and to remember how to trust themselves. My teaching work in Reclaiming is informed by studies of psychology, martial arts, reiki, sacred medicines, movement practices, and sound technologies. I have become especially focused on embodied awareness as a vehicle for connecting with the divine, deepening self-expression, embracing intuition, and changing self-narratives.
Phoenix LeFae
Phoenix LeFae I am a blue eyed wanderer and passionate devotee of the Goddess who currently resides on the land of my daughter's people, the Coastal Miwok. I am a restless seeker of knowledge, always yearning to learn more, dig deeper, and dive into mystery. My exploration of magick expresses itself through writing, spellcraft, ritual, teaching, and devotion. I attended my first Reclaiming ritual in 1995 and was immediately hooked. I started teaching in the tradition in 2010. I'm a teacher, ritualist, and initiate in the Reclaiming Tradition. I am also a Gardnerian Wiccan, hoodoo practitioner, professional witch, published author, and the owner of the Goddess shop Milk & Honey in Sebastopol California. I lead monthly Goddess Gatherings. You can learn more about me at my website www.phoenixlefae.com, stop by Milk & Honey in Sebastopol to meet me in person, listen to my podcast The Witch, The Priestess, and The Cauldron, or follow me at my Patheos Pagan column "The Witches Next Door".
Yule Danu

Yule’s fiery passion and loving spirit are contagious; fueling one of her core spiritual commitments: Pass on what we know and let those who come after us outgrow us! For they shall inherit the earth!
