Confident Witch Circle: Perthro
$49 — What's In Your Cup?
Chance isn't chaos.
But it isn't tame, either.
Dovie-'andi se tovya sagain.*
*It's time to roll the dice.
NOT EVERY SURPRISE IS A PUNISHMENT
Your habits, your attention, the conversations you chose to have (and the ones you kept avoiding), what you said "yes" to and what you quietly let slide ... all of it goes into filling your cup. Perthro, the dice cup. And at Beltaine, with the fires lit and the gates wide open to possibility, the cup begins to rattle.
Perthro carries the energy of genuine chance alongside everything you've built, deliberate or no. It's the wild card, the shakeup, the catalyst that gets stuck energy moving again, one of Loki's runes. This circle, we've going to learn to work with that agent of chance, deliberately, as a tool to work for us rather than something to be afraid of.
What We'll Cover
Two hours to cover philosophy, theology, ethics and spellcraft. One chance to throw the dice.
The Teaching
- Fate literacy, and why you shouldn't just give up
- The trickster, and the inevitable unexpected
- Three different faces of the Goddess at Beltaine
- The balance between rolling the dice and committing to structure
- The sacral chakra as the container of joy
The Working

Peorth is always play and laughter to the proud ones
where the wives sit in the birthhall, blithely together.
