The Inner Temple of Witchcraft:
Magick, Meditation
and Psychic Development

The Inner Temple of Witchcraft:
Magick, Meditation and Psychic Development

Written by Christopher Penczak

Explore your Inner Temple—your personal sacred space where there are no boundaries and all things are possible. With study, dedication, and practice, the lessons and exercises in this book will empower you to transform the repetitive rigors of the daily grind into a witch's web of magickal experiences.

The Inner Temple of Witchcraft is a thorough course of education, introspection, meditation, and the development of the magickal and psychic abilities that are the birthright of the witch. Four introductory chapters present the history, traditions, and principles of witchcraft, followed by thirteen lessons that start with basic meditation techniques and culminate in a self-initiation ceremony equivalent to the first-degree level of traditional coven-based witchcraft.

As you progress through this year-and-a-day course of study, you will explore a wide range of topics that support and inform the dedicated witch:

• Ancient and modern magickal philosophy
• Modern scientific theories supporting a new definition of reality
• "Instant" magick techniques for protection, healing, and serenity
• Energy work and anatomy, including chakras and auras
• Astral travel, dreams, and spirit guides
• Healing techniques for body, mind, and spirit
• This book's non-dogmatic presentation encourages an eclectic, personal approach while providing a strong foundation for the practice of witchcraft and magick. Develop your psychic abilities and practice potent magickal techniques as you explore the source of every witch's power—the temple within.

Tree of Life Meditation Necklace 

Handmade Jewelry Art Pendant

From Laura Milnor Iverson

"Tree of Life Meditation" A woman sits beneath a tree of life meditating on the chakras, which are swirling around the full moon. She wears a white peasant blouse and blue jeans, her hair tied in a single braid down her back. The tree was inspired by the gnarled old oaks in my native California landscape. The joyful chakras have a nod to the colorful tie dye art of the hippie era. Offered as a handcrafted pendant from artwork by California Artist Laura Milnor Iverson. Pendant size: 1 1/4" or 30mm round (not including the bail, which is the loop that fits over the necklace). Material: Archival print topped with a glass cabochon. For the setting, silver plating on zinc alloy base metal. A black ribbon necklace is included so the piece is ready to wear. These have an extender chain that adjusts from approximately 16 1/2" - 18", closing with a lobster claw clasp. Please note that this wearable art is not waterproof.

Hello and Welcome to CellDara.com

Hello all and welcome to my website!  I have so many goals for this site, and my business in general that I can't wait to get started. Of course I've officially had a "small business" for a few years now, and it's been a rather slow go - somewhat slower than I would like to admit. But I'm sticking with it and plan not to disappoint myself.

My long term goals are many, both for my life and for my shop. And in many ways they are one and the same. I am hoping to raise enough money through an upcoming fundraiser to finish my degree, a degree that will allow me to teach when I finally have the ability to open a local shop. But many of my shop related goals are a bit simpler. Of course, before I can open a shop I need a place to put it, and at the moment that's a little outside of my reach. But it's a perfect fit for the end of my 5 year plan.

I can already picture it. My town is full of houses which have been turned into amazing businesses, and I hope to add mine to the list.  In what was once the kitchen, shelves & cupboards filled with my own handmade herbal teas, tinctures and remedies. Where there was once a dining room, we find a room filled with handmade household & family items, candles, and cleaning products.  In the den, beautiful bright displays filled with handmade jewelry, hair pieces and scarves... And in the living room, space for a small gathering of people to focus on learning how to garden, cook, work with herbs & oils and/or live a healthier, more holistic lifestyle.  Finally, upstairs rooms would be devoted to devoted to magickal and metaphysical items & books - both retail and handmade.  Can you picture it? I can and it is amazing!

But before I can do that, I must first focus on what I have.  At the moment, as you can see, CellDara is split up into two stores. Once for handmade & herbal items - all created or supplied by me. And the other is an Amazon based retail shop filled with items I have chosen to feature.

I am currently featuring just a small amount of bath & body and herbal products through my etsy shop due to shipping issues. But I am working on figuring out how to ship these items safely (and legally) without having to charge an outrageous fee. However, these items ARE available through my vendor & craft show tables, as well as through special orders for local delivery.  If you are outside my area and wish to purchase these items, don't fret, I hope to have them available for purchase online shortly.

Other items you can either see today or that you will see being listed shortly include handmade jewelry, household items and my ebooks.  As I publish newer books they will also be available in eBook form whenever possible. Jewelry often features crystals & stones as well as symbols which carry a great deal of energy. It's worth noting that although the bulk of my jewelry is "Pagan" based, I have tried to ensure there is something for everyone, Pagan or not. And of course if you have an idea or would like a custom item done, I am happy to work with you.

My household item selection is currently pretty limited. Decorative Tea balls and some basic wax melts are currently all I have. However, that is about to be changing and I hope to start offering a wider selection shortly.

I hope everyone finds what they need here, and I am always open to custom orders, suggestions and advice. I will admit that I do not have all the knowledge in the world and I am happy to learn from others.  Feel free to contact me any time!

My goals with this shop are not purely to bring in a profit.  Instead I hope to use my shop, current and future, to help make the lives of my customers better. I hope to create a place for education, enlightenment and health on all levels. And I hope that we can all grow together! You are all my blessings, and I hope I can return the favor!

Thanks for stopping by!
