Witch Camp 2026 - Chaos and Creation
Primordial magic with the sacred elements - Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and the spirit of Chaos & creation
July 9-12, 2026
In Augusta, Wisconsin, hosted by Erin LaFaive, Michelle Green, Tabby Voss.
If this is your vibe . . .
Primordial roots of the earth.
The ooze of muck and lava. Erratic winds that settle over lakes still as glass.
Fire that burns forests and awakens seeds, unlocking their ancient codes.
Water that slowly erodes hard rock over centuries.
This is the real, down-to-the-ground magic of the elements.
A place where darkness is honored as fertile and protective,
where we explore the wild and sometimes scary places within ourselves and the land — remembering that we are not separate from nature,
but part of its ancient, living cycles.
. . . you’ll find it here at Witch Camp

Sink deeper . . . beyond memory . . . into the primordial roots of the earth where fire crackles with the spark of creation,
water whispers ancient knowing,
air carries breath and song,
and the winds stir the wild spirit of becoming. Here we remember the dance of chaos and creation, the raw elements that shaped land, body, and soul.
Together we’ll listen to the elements, honor their wisdom, and reconnect with the living forces that move through all things – ancient, untamed, and alive within us still.
“Witch Camp 2025 was amazing. It was the first time I ever felt like I actually found my people and I belonged. You don’t have to be a witch to be at Witch Camp, you can be spiritual or come as you are. I learned a lot. Stargazen is such an amazing spiritual place. I connected with so many different people. It was life changing. I highly recommend it.”
“Witch camp was everything I needed and more. Community, support, new experiences. I would definitely be going again this year if life didn’t have other plans for me this year. Oh and as a non-vegetarian the vegetarian food was amazing.”

This ritual invites you to stir awake your connection to the primordial waters that birthed life from the sea. Together, we will circle and stir, calling the old nourishing ways back to the surface – those that were buried and hidden –Â so that we may create a safe and nurturing life.

“The people and the land were so welcoming at Witch Camp, and it was a magical experience where I could be myself and connect with others. From fireside gatherings, walks in the lush woods, moving with the river, and flowing with the summer breeze, we conjured and communed with the elements and our deepest selves. I can’t say enough amazing things about Erin, Michelle, and Tabby- they helped make the entire experience feel inclusive and as if they were just waiting for each of us to be there to make the magic happen!”
The magic of Stargazen land awaits. All you need to do is arrive and allow yourself to be embraced by nature here.
Accommodations at Stargazen Woodland Retreat Center
Semi-rustic with electricity and purified drinking water, outdoor private showers, and clean porta potties.
Stargazen Woodland Retreat Center is a portal of enchantment
The retreat grounds hold gardens and art of all kinds. From hosta filled shade gardens to a fenced in apothecary garden, and the wild gardens Mother Nature created. Art is found as sculpture of metal, stone, wood in the gardens; mural paintings on outdoor showers; and in places one barely notices until a breeze brushes past and moves their singing parts.
Sacred spots are tucked in throughout the grounds from simple markings of rock circles, altar areas, cauldrons to Crow’s mound.
The accommodations are semi-rustic with electricity in most dwellings and campsites; canteens filled with drinking water; outdoor private sun showers, and several clean portable restrooms.
The retreat grounds have nine small dwellings with some sleeping up to three people and others only one person. Each with a different theme and accommodations such as heaters, air conditioning, hot plates, mini stove, mattress beds, pull out futons, bunk beds, kitchenettes, and more. A list of dwellings can be found here: Dwellings at Stargazen
Camping sites for tents, small campers, and RVs are available with electricity hook ups.
Some dwellings have up to three sleeping areas. Price varies based on the dwelling since each has different accommodations or if the dwelling will be shared or solo (range is $75-$750).
The in-person workshops will be held outdoors when weather permits. An indoor space is available too.
Food
Food is provided for 2 meals.
Most of the dwellings have mini refrigerators and indoor food preparation areas. Camp sites have access to fire rings, outdoor sink, preparation area, and potable water.
Inclement weather
In case of inclement weather, indoor facilities are available.

Hi, I’m Erin LaFaive, Herbalist and Plant Priestess
Since my days of gardening as a child in Wisconsin, I’ve always been captivated by plants. During my teen years, I began my self-studies in herbalism – and like you, I was passionate about the topic, but overwhelmed with the information and a bit lost (and lonely) about how to continue.
I’ve been studying and practicing nature spirituality for decades. I believe there are multiple ways to use and experience plant life including the Plant Priestess perspective.
They soothed me in times of trouble. They were always there for me. It’s as if I could sense their encouragement.
I have experience connecting with plants from experience with gardening, working in three greenhouses, internships at arboretums, cultural healing centers, conducting research as an undergraduate and graduate student. Including 9 years teaching all ages and knowledge backgrounds as a horticulture educator with University of WI – Extension.
Hi, I’m Tabby Voss
Join your favorite feral goblin witch, Tabby, for Witch Camp 2026: Chaos & Creation, a four-day immersive adventure into the five sacred elements. She’ll guide you through hands-on magic like wand-crafting, divination, soul asperging, and a powerful chaos fire ritual.
Hi, I’m Michelle GreenÂ
AKA the paradox witch
As a student of tantra yoga, I’ve learned that truth is experienced through paradox
And this is something that I LIVE as a spiritual mentor, psychic healer and stripper. Embodied shadow work has led me to fully embrace the taboo and has taken me on an underworld journey to discover my power in the dark corners of my psyche & the world.
I had my first psychic awakening in 2010 when I saw my first spirit & learned how to navigate the fear energy that had previously been holding me back from my psychic gifts… and it was a TRIP!
This was when I was living in Canada where I got my first trainings in yoga & reiki. It was also when I first started to offer card readings for people—but if you would have told me then that I would be a professional psychic 15 years later I’m not sure I would have believed you.
I have since trained in many more modalities, became a yoga teacher trainer, and reiki master teacher, coach, NLP & EFT practitioner & gained thousands of hours of experience…
Which is HILARIOUS because I don’t even teach yoga or practice reiki anymore, however I do have access to a large pool of resources because of my years in this field. I’ve been offering online courses in various spiritual topics since early 2016 and I share my best work with you in the offerings below.
I found the Akashic Records in 2021 as I set the intention to move away from my trusty fairy oracle deck and into a deeper level of psychic readings. Spirit led me to quit drinking alcohol during this time & I experienced a major uplevel as I put this new modality to the test.
Fast forward to 2025 and I now offer akashic readings internationally and have even worked with an interpreter to deleiver messages to non-english speakers.
Over the last year I’ve been on a journey to discover the unique medicine of my healing & psychic gifts beyond any training or modality.
I share what I KNOW through my own lived experiences and I walk my talk.
I’m here as PROOF that you don’t have to be obsessed with perfection or purity in order to reach towards mastery—you get to be ALL OF YOU as you uncover your unique spiritual gifts.
