In this class, beginners will quickly become acquainted with the fundamentals of Kabbalah, while more experienced practitioners will gain deeper perspectives into the origins of Kabbalah and its continuing relevance to witches, pagans and magickians.
This class will be offered both in person at the Wicked Grounds Annex in San Francisco, and simultaneously as a live, online class offered through Zoom. Please select SF or online tickets when purchasing.
Kabbalah doesn’t need to be obscure, pedantic, or boring. It can be fun, experiential – and maybe even a little dishy. Anyone can master the basics in only a few hours – and the rest, as they say, is commentary.

PRESENTER:
Miriam BatAsherah Green is a Thelemite, Witch and coffee nerd living in San Francisco, California.
With an academic background in Jewish studies, Mir has been actively studying Hermetic Qabala for twenty years and Jewish Kabbalah for nearly as long. Mir can read and speak Hebrew at the Hungry Little Caterpillar reading level. Miriam is a proud member of Scarlet Woman Lodge and Blazing Star Oasis, OTO and is an initiated Reclaiming Witch. In addition to magickal and occult topics, Mir presents a Kink 101 series of classes at Wicked Grounds, writes an Ask Wicked Mir kink advice column, and is a co-host of the Kinky Queer Revolution podcast.
Mir is available for teaching in the San Francisco Bay Area, less frequently in Austin, and pretty much anywhere else you will fly them. You may find out more about Mir's classes at the (very infrequently updated!) Miriam's Well site:
