The Victorian Society of Metaphysics and Magic is a community practicing and promoting modern neopagan and metaphysical traditions in the context of the Victorian past.

We are a group of people who meet and enjoy fellowship and community energy in the Delaware, Eastern Pennsylvania, Southern New Jersey, and Northern Maryland region. We come together to celebrate the natural cycles and energies of the world, while exploring magic in many forms.

We are always seeking like-minded new members who connect with our core values and beliefs, and who seek a spiritual and magical journey in life.

Planting the Seed – A New Beginning

The concept and inspiration for the Victorian Society of Metaphysics and Magic has been almost 30 years in the making. Conceived along a journey of incredible personal experience, deep and passionate study, and almost a lifetime of committed practice in varied spiritual and neopagan traditions, the seed started to form. Nevertheless, for many years I never really entertained the idea of an actual physical sanctuary or community arising from those years of personal spiritual growth.

Recent events and growing tensions in our world have really thrust the idea into the forefront of my mind and heart. I believe deeply that it is time to plant the seed and bring together those who attune with its energy to spiritually seek the innate beauty and wonder in this world while starting the process of healing.
