Sip, Craft, Connect: How Ritual Workshops Help You Align with the Energy of the Season

with Jessica Ballard of Star Flower Sacred Services

There’s something deeply transformative about creating with your hands, especially when you do it with intention. At Wildside Winery, we’ve found the perfect way to blend creativity, community, and cosmic alignment—and her name is Jessica Ballard.

Jessica is the heart and soul behind Star Flower Sacred Services, a business devoted to reconnecting people to nature, spirit, and themselves through ritual, astrology, and earth-based practices. Her workshops aren’t just about making something beautiful (though you’ll absolutely leave with something gorgeous)—they’re about grounding yourself in the energy of the season and tuning into the rhythm of the cosmos.

Each month, Jessica leads a ritual craft night here at the winery, designed around the astrological energy of the moment. Taurus season, for example, invites us to embrace earthy sensuality, patience, and creativity. In honor of this energy, you’ll be guided in making a spring wreath (or a nature crown if you're feeling playful) using wildcrafted and repurposed materials. Texture, beauty, and intention come together in a space filled with laughter, connection, and yes—delicious Wildside wine.

What makes these workshops so special is that they’re not just about astrology—they're about embodiment. When you work with your hands, set intentions, and share space with others, you’re doing more than crafting. You’re syncing up with the season’s vibe and reconnecting with your inner world in a tangible, joyful way.

Jessica’s approach is grounded and magical, offering a gentle gateway into ritual and seasonal living. Whether you're a longtime spiritual seeker or just love a good creative night out, this is the perfect way to step into the present moment and bring a little more meaning into your month.

🎟️ These events tend to fill quickly, so we highly recommend grabbing your tickets early. Each ticket includes one glass of wine, light snacks, and all the good vibes. (Consider bringing your own glue gun, though—our supply is limited!)

Next up: Taurus Craft Night – Saturday, May 3rd @ 5 PMLet’s celebrate the beauty of spring, the element of Earth, and the steady magic of Taurus season—together.
