Hello agian
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Yup, Yule rest over so it's back to the grindstone. I have preliminary booked the Symposium to be held at the Holywell Music Room on the 26th of September this year. This is possibly one of the most listed buildings in the country so quite and difference from last year. It does mean that we can have 200 tickets available though so we won't have to turn so many away. The downside is that as the building is listed, staging a full rite with candles and incense there is unlikely to be possible. We will be getting a side room though so workshops are very much on the agenda.
Here is the Wiki entry for this very famous building:

The building is in the city centre right next to all the original University Campus buildings and Ashmole's original museum. That area is all laid out in the Alchemical design using Hermetic conceptualisation. There will be plenty of pubs and restaurants nearby too. I hope the day time event to start arround 10:00am and go on till the early evening when we will move to a seperate venue for a social, much like the old Symposiums but hopefully about double the size.
Speakers still have to be established though I have a few who are pencilled in. Suggestions are welcome but it is worth noting that the Symposium is not really geared toward beginners, though without meaning to lose them by blinding them with too much information. We don't really want it to become a soap box conference of rival orders trying to grab beginners you see. It is much more of an adepts conference, with speakers generally being asked to speak from experience on matters that they have worked on personally. The workshops will be introductions to practices that the people running them, have plenty of experience in too.
Anyway the ball is rolling again. I hope to see you there. We will be putting advanced sales of tickets up in the next few weeks, so be early to secure your seat.
Love is the law, love under will.
Thank you,
Alex Bennett
