The labors of the Great Work are aided admirably by the use of magical tools. In this segment of the Magic Tools Series the student will learn about the symbolism, practices and construction of the Disk, or Pantacle. Providing a workshop environment, William will discuss the techniques of the Disk and guide students through the symbolism, process of its design, painting and theurgic ritual use in Hermetic Qabalah.

The first session will include techniques for design, and the beginning of the process. During the interim week, students will need to sand their disks on their own, and bring them back for the second part.

For students attending in person, please bring $20 cash and all material components for the construction of the disk will be provided. Space will be limited, and when the in-person spots are gone you will no longer see that option at check out.

For those attending via zoom, find supplies list below

Guidance will be provided through the process of making the disks together as a group so that by the end of the workshop each participant will have a completed disk for ritual use.
