Is magic real, or just a spicy blend of psychology and ritual? Join Jon O’Sullivan as he explores this modern question through the lens of Irish Paganism. We unpack Crowley’s definition of magic—“using natural forces to create change in accordance with one’s will”—and examine everything from candle-lighting traditions to placebo effects, neuroplasticity, and ritual intention. Gain clarity and confidence on your path.

Rowan Ives  recommends The Irish Pagan School...  
"The courses at the Irish Pagan School offer an in-depth approach to Irish paganism that is based on genuine history and folklore. There is so much here for curious learners of all levels to gain knowledge and insight on their spiritual paths while avoiding the misinformation that is sadly common in popular  modern paganism. I have benefited greatly from the classes and look forward to taking more."
