You’re invited to an exploration of the Spirits of Halloween with our community of creatives as we evoke the Unseen through the mediums of poetry, writing, art creation, vibration, channeling, witchcraft, and magical perfumery. Throughout this weekend experience, Dorothea and Lou will weave these fields together to create a doorway for the invisible to speak.
Some 2022 Halloween Associations and Themes we will focus on include: owls, eyes, the smell of ashes, costumes, cobwebs, faces, nostalgia, dampness, crisp, ceremony, animate, vapors, egrets, murmurations, lips, and Arrasa Con Todo (herb).

Lou Florez (Awo Ifadunsin) is a diviner and metaphysical reader who facilitates spiritual connectivity and transformational empowerment throughout his myriad roles as a Priest, lecturer, author, medicine maker, and activist. His work is inherently interdisciplinary and intersectional—bridging the fields of herbalism, ecology, divination, poetry, psychology, religious studies, gender and sexual studies, mixed-media art, and perfumery. Lou investigates the emanating Spirit present within all these fields and incorporates them into experiences that activate the Spirit within.
Lou is the cofounder and executive director of Water Has No Enemy (WHNE), a nonprofit committed to healing justice. WHNE seeks to honor the timeless and enduring indigenous wisdom stolen from communities of color through centuries of slavery, colonization, and institutionalized oppression and reclaim it for today’s world. The organization offers a collaborative space for changemakers to explore healing justice because we believe that true healing occurs at all levels—from the individual and social levels to our relationship to the natural world. We promote services and programming that intersectionally addresses social change, community activism, and transformation through indigenous, Yoruba, and African diasporic perspectives.
