About the event

This class introduces magical body lore to the folk magician looking to  explore new areas of enchantment. We’ll look at the history and folklore  of the human body, including the uses of moles for divination, hair in  magical charms or funerary jewelry, or even the folk traditions  surrounding corpses.
