Confident Witch Circle: Kenaz

Kenaz is the torch, the forge, the rune of manifestation. We're working with creative fire: getting it back, aiming it on purpose, and protecting it from burnout.

This week’s Confident Witch Circle lands in the dark-moon stretch right before the New Moon—prime time for lighting something on purpose and feeding it correctly.

Kenaz is the rune of the fires of creation: inspiration, craft, skill-building, and the inner torch that helps you see what's true and what's possible. If you've been stuck in "I want to do the thing" but can't seem to start ... or you start and it fizzles ... or you're doing it, but it feels joyless and brittle ... this Circle is for you.

Expect a short teaching on creative fire vs. burnout fire, group discussion and coaching, and a simple candle spell to ignite creative fire that you can repeat at home. Kenaz's allies on our Wheel include Hecate (Lady of the Torch and the Threshold) and Loki (heat, disruption, and catalytic change), with The Sun as our Major Arcana current, bringing us illumination, momentum, and the courage to be seen.

This is a great Circle for you if you feel creatively "offline" and want your spark back, have a project you love but keep avoiding, want to build consistency without turning your practice into punishment, or are just trying to create in real life, not some aesthetic fantasy.

• Bring: Journal/BoS & pen, water, (optional) small candle and focus word/phrase
• Drop-in friendly; no prior experience necessary. Each Circle stands alone.
• Cost: $49

Step into a small, guided witchcraft circle where you don’t have to hold it all together alone. The Confident Witch Circle in Lansing, Michigan blends training, group problem-solving, and guided ritual so you can grow your personal craft, strengthen your voice, and share your journey with people who get it.

You’re the witch people come to for advice, comfort, and a little bit of magick.

But who holds you while you’re trying to keep your life, your practice, and your sanity together?

The Confident Witch Circle is a small-group mentorship and ritual space with Lord Solinox Silverstar—shopkeeper witch, priestx, and slightly-feral founder of the Confident Witch path. This is where we practice real-world witchcraft together: no perfection and no posturing, just honest magick in a messy world.

Here, we don’t pretend life isn’t chaotic. We learn how to surf the churn instead of being dragged under it.

What the Confident Witch Circle is:

• A recurring circle meeting in-person in Lansing, MI, with online access via Zoom
• A mix of teaching, discussion, and live ritual focused on leadership, sovereignty, and practical spellcraft
• A place to ask questions you’re afraid to ask anywhere else, and actually get answers
• A steady touchstone so your practice doesn’t vanish the second life gets hard

Each gathering includes:

• Grounding and energetic check-in
• A focused teaching theme aligned with the Wheel of the Year
• Group discussion and Q&A about real-life situations
• A simple, adaptable working or practice you can repeat at home
• Practical next steps so change doesn’t stay hypothetical

Who this circle is for

The Confident Witch Circle is designed for:

• Witches and pagans who feel under-confident in their own practice, even if others see them as “the witch friend”
• Burned-out practitioners rebuilding after crisis, illness, or community drama
• Neurodivergent, queer, disabled, and otherwise strange folks who are tired of squeezing into aesthetic-only witch spaces
• Tender-hearted skeptics who want real results and are willing to test, track, and tweak what they’re doing

You do not need to be a Weavers member, have any particular tradition, or be “advanced.”

You do need to be willing to show up honestly and respect other people’s lived experience.

What you’ll get out of it

Over time, circle members tend to:

• Build quiet, sturdy confidence in their own decisions and magick
• Stop outsourcing their sovereignty to “that one book” or “that one teacher”
• Develop a repeatable personal practice that bends with their life instead of breaking
• Learn how to design, troubleshoot, and evaluate spells and rituals (not just throw herbs at vibes)
• Experience what it feels like to be held in community instead of doing witchcraft in isolation

This is not a one-and-done workshop (although you can take them one at a time); it’s an ongoing container for growth.
