Episode 130: Paths to the Divine - Paganism, Polytheism, and Crossroads
Today’s episode was inspired by the ever-changing path of the witch, or at least my ever-changing path. Don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere, but I just wanted to talk a bit about finding your path, changing your mind, and making choices along the way.

Episode 129: Dealing with Information Overload
Information overload can easily happen when researching witchcraft and paganism. Do you know what it looks like? Or how to combat the "symptoms" of too much information? Take a listen today as I talk about my experiences with information overload, what it looks like, and how I help myself overcome the challenges of easily accessible, and constant, information.

Episode 128: Self-Care and Witchcraft: What it is and ideas for your routine!
Self-care has become a large focus for me in my personal life, so much so that I find I have integrated my self-care practice and my witchcraft practice using different routines and ideas. I'm at the stage now of burnout recovery, so self-care but to an extreme. But what is self-care, and how should you approach it within a magical context? We're going to explore that today!

Episode 127: Getting Back to Basics || Why you should go back and start over!
Sometimes you just have to start over, ya know? Go back to the basics of your practice and really figure out what you enjoy, what matters the most to you, and how you can further deepen your connection to your faith and witchcraft!
The last few years have seen tremendous growth in both my personal and witchy life. Both things and people have come and gone. Life has changed, my practice has changed, and I have changed. All of these changes have brought chaos and disconnection into my daily life, so I've been feeling the need to get back to basics, as they say, and really connect to my practice again from the beginning. This can be a fun and enlightening exercise in personal growth and self-awareness.

Episode 126: A Year in Review 2022
It's the last day of 2022 and holy crap I am ready for it. It's been chaos and unpredictability in both my personal life as well as my practice, and I'm glad to be starting over fresh with many things come 2023. Things have changed in my life and I'm getting back to why I started making content in the first place -- for something I enjoy doing!
I hope you have a wonderful New Year celebration and a joyous start to your 2023. I know I will!

Episode 125: The Help and Harm of Witchcraft Labels
Do you label your witchcraft practice? Maybe you're a green witch, or a cottage witch, or a kitchen witch?
In today's episode, I give my perspective and opinion on the different ways labels can help and harm your witchcraft practice. As always, this episode is simply one witch's thoughts! I don't personally label my witchcraft, though I have labeled my polytheistic practice. Don't forget that labels are community created and arbitrary -- they only matter if they matter to you!

Episode 124: The Dullahan, The Good Woman, and The Death Coach
This month, I was inspired to give a more spooky episode for the podcast, something steeped in legend and folklore.
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow was written by Washington Irving, an American author that wrote the story detailing a Hessian soldier that was decapitated during a battle in the revolutionary war come back to life without his head. However, he isn't the first or only headless horseman in legend or myth. In Ireland and some other Celtic nations, there is another headless horseman that is commonly associated with The Dullahan.
Today's story comes to us from Fairy Legends and Traditions of the South of Ireland by T. Crofton Crocker. It is the story of The Dullahan and the Headless Horseman. The full text is in the public domain and it is available on Project Gutenberg, as well as the full text of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving.

Episode 122: Can you use magic for personal gain?
Someone on YouTube asked me to clarify my thoughts on using magic for personal gain. I hadn't done so in that particular video so here I am!
The tldr; version of my answer is yes, you can use magic for personal gain. There is no hard and fast rule in witchcraft that says you can't use magic to get things you want or need. Listen in to hear my reasons, my thoughts on where this idea comes from, and how I feel that it is harmful to certain communities.

Episode 121: Comparison is the Thief of Joy || A Reminder for Myself and Others
A friend of mine, Megs (Prairie), recently reminded me that I'm not alone when I have feelings of inadequacy in regard to my practice and my knowledge. She left me with the quote that is also the title of this episode: Comparison is the thief of joy. I wanted to share my thoughts with you, the things that I know but that don't stop me from comparing myself to others. This episode is a sort of pep talk for myself and others that might struggle with this, too. So thank you, Megs, for the reminder!

Episode 120: Throw Out Your Wheel || Creating Personal Celebrations
I received a question on Instagram about how I'm adjusting to life in Florida in regard to the Wheel of the Year, energy work, and seasonal celebrations. It got me thinking about how I don't really follow the traditional Wheel of the Year and how I've created, and continue to refine, my own celebration calendar.

Episode 119: Tools of the Trade || One Witch's Thoughts
I've had the itch to talk about tools in witchcraft practices for a few weeks now and I finally just decided to sit down and record. In this episode, you'll hear my thoughts on common tools, how we can reframe our views on what tools in witchcraft are, and some random thoughts I have about witchy tools in general.

Episode 118: The Commodification of Witchcraft with Betty-Ann
I saw something recently that really got under my skin and I wanted to talk about it but I didn't want to do it alone. So I did the next best thing! I invited a friend of mine, Betty, better known as The Witch from the North on social media, to come on the show with me and talk about the commodification of witchcraft and spirituality. We dig into why our community gets inundated with ads, products, and things we supposedly need. We talk about how this is harmful to the wider spiritual community but that it's also been a bit helpful. We also give our own perspectives on what we think can be done to break out of the cycle of consumerism within our practices.

Episode 117: Ask a Mentally Ill Witch! - Mental Health Q&A
I asked on social media for your questions on mental health, witchcraft, and paganism. In this episode, I answer those questions and give my perspective. This episode got a little heavy for me at certain points, so it may be heavy for you sometimes, too. However, mental health is such an important topic and I really wanted to tackle this head-on.

Episode 116: My Experiences Connecting With The Land
I was uninspired this month... until I looked out my window at the large oak tree growing in my backyard and I just knew I had to talk about my experiences connecting with the land I live on. Join me on this rambling episode as I talk about childhood connections, living in many places, and finally starting to feel rooted.

Ep. 115 Let's Be Nicer To Beginners, Okay?
As we close the book on 2021 and open the first page of 2022, let's explore how the wider occult community tends to do a disservice to beginners. The pandemic has caused a boom in witchcraft spheres and the wider occult community in general, and with that boom in magical practitioners comes a lot of beginners. How can we treat beginners better? How can we as public witches, community members, and friends treat beginners better? I have thoughts...

What are some of YOUR spirit encounters? Let me know!

Episode 110: A Dabbler's Guide to Witchcraft || An Interview with Fire Lyte
Fire Lyte is the author of a brand new book, The Dabbler's Guide to Witchcraft, and a long-time podcaster and host of the show Inciting a Riot. I had the pleasure of sitting down and speaking with him about the inspiration behind his new book, the importance of intersectional science in magical spaces, and even mention of that time the Internet erupted over a piece of malachite.

Episode 109: Sun Among Stars || Interview with Mael Brigde || Brigid Devotee, Author, and Teacher
Sun Among Stars is a wonderfully written devotional to Brigid written by Mael Brigde. It isn't out just yet, but I had the pleasure of speaking with Mael about her book and Brigid in her life. This week, listen to our chat about the inspiration behind Mael's book, how she came to know Brigid, and some of her most beloved stories of Brighid, both Goddess and Saint.

Episode 108: Gatekeeping and Cancel Culture in Occult Spaces
So, gatekeeping and cancel culture...two heavy topics that are talked about in the wider occult community fairly often. As with most broad topics like this, I’m mainly going to focus on witchcraft and polytheism because that’s what I have experience with. However, these topics can generally be applied to almost any other community even outside the occult. I also need you to understand that these two concepts are heavily nuanced, like most things, and I won’t be able to cover all the nuance in just one episode.
Astrology Forecast Correction: Adri has made a correction to the astrology forecast! The Jupiter Retrograde is in Aquarius, not Pisces!

Episode 107: Wintering with Katherine May || Slowing Down for Darker Times
This concept of wintering was introduced to me through Katherine's book. Having thoroughly enjoyed it myself, I thought it would be wonderful to bring it to you, as well! Although not specifically witchy or polytheistic, I feel like we can all benefit from wintering every now and then.

"Katherine May is a writer of both fiction and nonfiction. Her journalism and essays have appeared in a range of publications including The Times (London), Good Housekeeping, and Cosmopolitan. She lives by the sea in Whitstable, England and is an avid lover of the outdoors."

Episode 105: Occult Communities || Purpose and Red Flags
As patrons have requested, this month I explored the need for occult community, some different reasons why community is important, and some red flags to watch for. Communities are an integral part of growing our practices whether we realize it or not. When we're part of a community, we are shown new perspectives, we learn new things, and we even make friends.
