[convention/event] Crucible, Invitation to Crucible: A Magic(k) Convention, Oct. 6 in Edison, NJ Options

Hello everyone! I just would like to extend an invite to all of you to a convention my group is organizing on October 6 in Edison, NJ called Crucible. Crucible is a magic(k) convention open to members of all walks of magic. During the event, we will have a number of speakers from a variety of traditions. It's a great way to meet others who are into magic(k) and to get an idea of the vast amount of traditions/paths out there. Some of the speakers we have and topics include:

• Rouhaniat, also known as Al Hikmah by Jow. Rouhaniat is a form of contemporary, medieval-based Arabian Magick. The lecture will cover magical theory, history, and practical applications.
• Magickal Combat by Inominandum (Jason Miller). In this class Jason Miller, the author of Protection and Reversal Magick, will lay out strategies and methods used in magickal conflicts, either between sorcerer and spirit, or magician vs magician. Methods of protection, obfuscation, binding, expelling, jinxing and cursing will all be discussed. Material will range from High Ceremonial magick to Hedge Magick and everything in between.
• Beliefs and Practices of Haitian Vodou by Houngan Hector, Haitian Vodou High Priest. The overview will include God, Spirits (Lwa), Magic, Initiation, and a variety of other topics. We will be discussing in-depth about certain Lwa of the Vodou and some of Haiti's History.
• The Place of the Mage and Magic in the Modern World: A Panel Discussion
• Dowsing as a Therapeutic Art for Better Health by Dimitri, a Wiccan High Priest Dowsing in this method is a similar approach to kinesiology, in which the body is its own tool. Dimitri will provide a demonstration using pendulums.
• Egyptian Magick by Shawn Knight
• Basic Yoruban Gods, Beliefs, Practices, and their Adaptation to Modernization by Dimitri and Deserie (High Priest and Priestess). Deserie will close with a modern Yoruban-based ritual cleansing and blessing.
• The Relationship between Quantum Physics and Chaos Magic by Shawn Knight.
• Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n Roll: Alternative Ways of Achieving Gnosis and their Implications: A Panel Discussion
• Omnimancy: Intermediate by Arthur Moyer

We have a couple more speakers whose topics are yet to be announced.

If you would like a chance to spend time with a diverse group of magic practitioners and learn/discuss about various paths of magic(k), please drop by! Again, Crucible is on October 6 in Edison, New Jersey. You can check out our site at www.CrucibleConvention.com for more information.

I think I'm like 4 hours from NJ ... but how am I supposed to get there... perhaps if some were to invent some type of automobile then such long travel could be possible O_O
