What is Local Magic? How would it work in a city, a backyard, a forest, a farm? Inspired by living in the Southern Hemisphere, Jane Meredith’s book ‘Circle of Eight’ explores a dynamic Paganism grounded entirely in place. What if the East wasn't just a direction, but a place you could visit? What happens when we rediscover Paganism, earth-centred religion, from the ground up? This talk and discussion will cover the underlying theory of Local Magic, learnings from the Southern Hemisphere and Australian Paganism, the Circle of Eight structure and how to begin working the Circle of Eight anywhere.
