Online and London Events over the Festive Holidays

Here is a list of online events and activities for pagans, witches and friends over the festive holidays until twelfth night. I generally list events in the UK, especially in or near London, because that's where I live, but at the moment most events are online and so can be enjoyed anywhere. If you know of a ritual, talk, meeting or workshop you want included, please email me at badwitch1234@gmail.com
