    The Spirit University 373 Braden Ave, Sarasota

    What kind of witch hat would you create if you could make it completely your own? Step into The Practical Magic Witch Hat Bar and transform a classic witch hat into something wonderfully, unmistakably you.

Go elegant or whimsical. Mysterious or colorful. Woodland witch, glamorous witch, wonderfully wild witch — there is no right way to create your magic. Most hats will be classic black, with a limited selection of purple, violet, red, khaki, and white available while supplies last. Your Witch Hat Experience Includes Your witch hat • A wide variety of decorations and embellishments • All standard supplies needed to create it • Plenty of room to let your imagination take over No artistic experience is needed.

    Tarot Practice Circle: Build Confidence in Your Readings

    The Spirit University 373 Braden Ave, Sarasota

    Your cards are speaking. This circle helps you trust what they are saying. Join us for a warm, welcoming, hands-on Tarot Practice Circle designed to help you strengthen your skills, practice giving readings, deepen your understanding of the cards, and become more confident in your own intuitive style. This is not a lecture or formal tarot class. It is an interactive practice experience where you can work with the cards, learn alongside others, receive supportive feedback, and become more comfortable reading beyond memorized definitions. Each gathering may include guided tarot exercises, practice readings, intuitive interpretation, card combinations, simple spreads, and new ways to recognize the story unfolding within a reading. Whether you are just beginning or have been reading tarot for years, you are welcome. Practice at your own comfort level, ask questions, explore different approaches, and grow within a kind and encouraging community. REAL PRACTICE. REAL FEEDBACK. REAL GROWTH. The more you practice, the more naturally the cards begin to speak—and the more confidently you learn to listen. Please bring your own Rider-Waite tarot deck or pick one up from our boutique. With Jane Mills. Come early or stay afterward to browse the crystals, tarot decks, spiritual tools, jewelry, […]

  • Paranormal Investigation Lab: Learn to Think Like an Investigator

    The Spirit University 373 Braden Ave, Sarasota

    What would you do if the meter suddenly lit up? Was that unusual sound meaningful evidence — or something completely ordinary? Step into the investigator’s role with Brandy Stark, PhD, founder of SPIRITS of St. Petersburg, for an engaging, interactive introduction to the fascinating world of paranormal investigation. This is more than a presentation about ghost hunting. You’ll explore how an investigation is actually approached — from the first questions asked to the equipment used, the evidence collected, and the careful process of deciding what may or may not be paranormal. During this hands-on workshop, you’ll explore: Paranormal equipment and what different tools are designed to detect How investigators evaluate audio, photographs, environmental changes, and other possible evidence Why historical research can be an important part of an investigation How investigators separate unexplained experiences from ordinary explanations Where sensitivity and intuition may fit alongside technology Important considerations involving safety, boundaries, and ethics You’ll also have the opportunity to take part in audience exercises and a simulated paranormal investigation experience inside The Spirit University, giving you a chance to put some of what you’ve learned into practice. No previous paranormal experience is needed. Come curious. Come observant. Come ready to think […]
