We offer 7 services to the pagan community: Teaching, Spiritual Healing, Divination, Counseling, Crisis Intervention, Networking, and Ritual.
Rites of Passage Initiations, Wiccanings, Coming of Age, Handfastings, Croning and Saging Ceremonies
Teachers, healers, priests and priestesses are not paid as clergy at The Web. We believe our work is to share what Spirit has taught us. However, it is always appropriate to honor your teachers or The Web with a thoughtful gift from the heart.
Full Moon Circles & Sabbats:
 The Web holds Full Moon Circles on the Friday night nearest the Full Moon and the Sabbats the Saturday nearest the Solstice,  Equinox and Cross Quarter days. Some are combined due to closeness and busy times. Creation of the ritual and leadership is rotated among those who have volunteered as ritualists. Since some ritualists invite us to their homes and back yards for these celebrations, check with The Web to know what is happening where each month. We do include children in our programming and offer children's workshops and rituals concurrent with many of The Web activities. For the children we emphasize training in grounding, energy work, ethics , etc.

Shamanic Journeying, Drum Circles :
There are Shamanic Journeying, Drum Circles held on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month. From 2pm - 4pm or 5pm. This is an open circle of people practicing core shamanism similar to Harner's Foundation for Shamanic Studies . We use repetitive drum beats to enter trance and journey to the upper, lower or middle worlds for healing, training, to gain information from our guides, etc. We usually can get 2 journeys in along with teaching and sharing personal experiences. Bring a notebook to record your journeys, frame drum or rattle if you have them, eye shield (optional), and floor pallet (if you don't want to journey sitting up). Beginners are welcome.

Mystic Faire:
We also offer a quarterly Mystic Faire fundraiser currently held at the Lyons Community Center this past spring. $10 at the door secures a reading and a mini Reiki session. Additional  services are added as you wish (for an additional $5 each). The Web offers supervised free children's activities (coloring, crafts, etc.) while adults are getting readings (donations are welcomed), and have a few vendors in the hallway. This is a Web fundraiser that benefits The Web in helping keep future workshops, festivals, etc. reasonably priced.
Currently our Mystic Faire's are on hiatus. We have recently been informed the location we use (Lyons Community Center) no longer has weekend hours. Therefore we are currently checking into other locations. Stay tuned for more info.
