Working the Spirit: The Advanced Art of Rootwork, Part 1 (June 2025)

Course Enrollment is Open. Next Course Start Date: June 9th, 2025 Instructor: Rev. Dr. Aaron Davis Course Length: 8 Weeks Want to dive deeper into Hoodoo? Instructor Rev. Dr. Aaron Davis returns with a monumental second course in his Rootwork series! The course is so in-depth that we had to separate it into two parts! In Part 1 of this course, Working the Spirit, you will learn how to develop a spirit arcana that is somewhat traditional to hoodoo: learn restorative and baneful workings, how to maintain and enhance your strength with the aid of spirit allies, and more! Completion of this eight-week course will give you all of the key tools and knowledge from which to build your own unique approach to Hoodoo. You will then have the option of practicing rootwork for yourself and your immediate loved ones, or to become a professional rootworker. The community we began in “Working the Roots” will be your collegial community of practitioners, in addition to any community you cultivate where you live. In Working the Spirit: The Advanced Art of Rootwork, Rev. Dr. Aaron Davis expertly guides you into the world of hoodoo, spirit work, and folk magic, with a heavy emphasis on building the skills you need to become a professional rootworker. A rootworker of 16 years, Rev. Doc Aaron has drawn from his extensive experience to create a course of rare quality that combines hands-on practice with in-depth study, offering this work that can be truly transformative. COURSE PREREQUESITE: Rev. Doc Aaron welcomes students of all kinds, regardless of race or spiritual persuasion. Some experience in a path of folk magic is recommended prior to taking this course. The typical sequence of courses is to take Working the Roots prior to this course, but those with experience have also benefited.
