WTI Study
What is the Women’s Thealogical Institute (WTI)?
The Women’s Thealogical Institute (WTI) is a multidimensional school and seminary for women who wish to further their understanding of the Goddess, women’s spirituality, and/or women’s witchcraft. Being a part of WTI offers women the opportunity to learn, practice, and share their spiritual work with others on similar paths.
There are two ways you can participate in WTI. Click one of the links below for more information.
WTI Weekend Groups
Currently, weekend programs happen in Austin, Texas; Indianapolis, Indiana; Asheville, North Carolina; Madison, Wisconsin; and rotating cities in the western US. Women in the weekend program meet for 2 Advising weekends a year with their group to share their program work with others. WTI Weekend Groups are programs that require enrollment and may lead to certification and/or ministerial credentials.

WTI Online Program
All cycles of the Cella and Crone Programs are offered online and one may graduate from WTI through the Program. Online participants take part in regular training with their Advisor and become part of a learning and sharing online community. Currently WTI’s Athena Program is aligned with an online weekend group meeting twice a year.
Those interested in ordination and receiving ministerial credentials may take the first part of their training online, and will then need to transfer to a weekend group.

Upcoming Intensive
The Witch’s Guide to Your Planetary Allies
with Kimberly Williams
August 22-24, 2025 in Madison, Wisconsin
Presented by WTI Madison
This Intensive is limited to current participants and past graduates of the Women’s Theological Institute, however, RCG-I women may attend a Friday night special open preview provided advance registration.
The Witch’s Guide to Your Planetary Allies is a WTI Intensive that will guide women into forming personal relationships with the 7 traditional planets. Together, we will work with song, food, colors and more to explore how each planet can support us in in our magic, our personal growth & our daily lives.
The intensive will focus on the 7 traditional planets of Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter & Saturn. During the weekend, we will become familiar with the classical meanings of each to include sign rulership, primary urges, themes associated & historical mythologies. Additionally, we will explore the mythologies of various goddesses who embody similar topics.
We will utilize techniques, such as guided meditation & stretching auras, to establish bonds with each planetary energy. Time will be available for Q&A as well as discussion. Additionally, after the intensive has concluded, each woman will receive a complimentary 20-minute reading on a planet of her choosing via zoom.
Objectives
There are 5 basic objectives for this intensive listed below. Activities will be designed to reinforce each:
1. Basic themes associated with each planet
2. Archetypal energies of each planet
3. Goddesses/Feminist Mythologies appropriate for each planet
4. Introductory “quick & easy” tips on how to cultivate relationships with planets
5. Shift our concept from planets being an object in the outer world to a personal magical ally
