Lupercalia Poppet Set - Rituals for Sympathetic Magic, Love & Desire

Lupercalia is an ancient Roman festival that was celebrated on February 15th to which some believe is the inspiration behind the commercially produced Valentine’s Day celebrated around the world on February 14th. In Ancient Rome, the festival was sexually charged & violent, & was often celebrated with frivolity, blood sacrifices, the pairing of individuals for partnership & fertility.

This ritual set is not your average love Witchual set nor your typical Ancient Roman Lupercalia festivity, rather it is inspired by what the mythology & what Lupercalia represents as a modern Pagan holiday.

The Lupercalia Ritual Poppet Set includes items that correspond to five different rituals that build upon the included poppet to inspire love, love of oneself, passion & creativity, &/or fertility based on the mythology & traditional symbology of Lupercalia (without the goat sacrifices & with only minor lashings ;)) + two additional rituals.
