Spells to Avoid Narcissists - Navigating Narcissists With Magick Part Two
 If you haven’t already, check out my last episode How to Spot a Narcissist - Navigating Narcissism With Magick Part One. In this episode I do a quick recap of my understanding of what it means to be a narcissist, then I get into three very simple spells to help repel narcissists away from you!Narcissists are attracted to weak points, lowered self-worth, and people with poor boundary skills. They are also very good at appearing to be something they’re not, in large part because a relationship with a narcissist will begin with them mirroring back all of your best qualities. What’s not to love about that?To that end, I offer a self-love spell, a psychic boundaries spell, and a clear sight spell. Each spell will leave you with a token of the work you’ve done, to keep the intentions of the spell close to hand. And all of these spells can be done in under twenty minutes, and use easy to acquire ingredients. Most importantly–you!The next two videos in this series will cover magickal tools and practices you can use to help disentangle yourself from a narcissist if you're already involved.I'm a solo female traveler and Christian Witch. In July 2021 I bought a one way ticket to Europe, and left a few weeks later!

How to Spot a Narcissist - Navigating Narcissism With Magick Part One
Narcissism is a hot issue right now, and with good reason. When people speak out about behaviours that have negatively impacted their lives it empowers others to get real about their own experiences and seek help. I've dealt with people who have strong narcissistic traits my entire life, across all manner of relationships: family, romantic, friendships, and professional. It hasn't been very fun, but it's sure given me a lot of insight, and opportunity to build a strong-ass boundary practice.This video illustrates some of the red flags that pop up in a relationship with a narcissist. Not all of the red flags you might encounter are here, and not every red flag means you're definitely dealing with a narcissist. But the more you know, the better equipped you'll be to navigate these troubled waters. This can give you some clues about how narcissists behave and manipulate.The next two videos in the series will cover magickal tools and practices you can use to keep narcissists away from your energy field, and how to help disentangle yourself from a narcissist if you're already involved.I'm a solo female traveler and Christian Witch.

Christian Witch Part Two: What Does it Meeeeaaaan?
Welcome back to The Cauldron for Part Two of my Christian Witch two-parter...or is it a series? We shall see....!In this episode I dive in to what it means to be a Christian Witch, from my perspective, and why these seemingly disparate elements go so well together. I look at what being a Christian means to me, what being a witch means to me, some of the pushback I've gotten around this description of myself. We're all multifaceted miracles of light and love and shadow and carbon. To try to put ourselves in boxes, or allow others to do that to us, is a great disservice. You may not consider yourself a Christian, a Witch, or both--but I guarantee there are parts of yourself that seem like they shouldn't coexist within the same person. I'm here to tell you: You're not alone. That is the grand paradox of being human. And this episode might help to bring these seemingly ill-fitting aspects into greater harmony through a good, old fashioned reframing.I'm a solo female traveler and aspiring digital nomad. In July 2021 I bought a one way ticket to Europe, and left a few weeks later! My channel features content about travel, solo travel and being a digital nomad. I'm also a witch, a Tarot reader, an artist, and a yoga practitioner, so I'll have plenty of videos about magick, being a witch on the road, working with Tarot, and pretty drawings!Squeaky's Cauldron Episode One: https://bit.ly/3vxq6PeRob Bell: https://youtu.be/JT09JbaEh_IBinaural Beats: https://youtu.be/7cHjaJRl1QoInterested in getting a Tarot reading?

Christian Witch Part One: The Origin Story
Welcome back to The Cauldron! In this episode I give a bit of my backstory--where this Christian Witch came from. Because I've explored this topic in previous episodes, and because not everyone is interested in the backstory of these things, AND because the original episode was getting a bit long, I decided to offer it in two parts.I, for one, love a good origin story. I think it helps bring important context around why things are the way they are. How did the duckling grow into a swan? What drove the author of my favourite novels to the keyboard? Where on earth did that mousey kid I knew get so much confidence?Ultimately, I tell this story in an effort to help people feel less alone. We all have our stories, and when we find someone else whose experiences echo our own, it can feel like a revolution. Or at least a sense of comfort.You're not alone.If you, like me, appreciate hearing about the evolution, check out this episode! If not, part two--where I explore what Christian Witch means to me and why the two things work well together--is available on YouTube and wherever fine podcasts are served. https://youtu.be/Gp2lkK_EhB8I'm a solo female traveler and aspiring digital nomad.

Season 3: The F*ck It Edition
Hello lovelies! Two years and two days after the first episode of Squeaky's Cauldron dropped, I'm coming atcha with Season 3! Also available as a video on YouTube at https://bit.ly/3lKgeP2In this video I break down my biggest reason for abandoning the podcast to the dreaded pod fade, and why those reasons were both necessary and utterly ridiculous. Here's a hint: it has to do with shame!We were put here to use our voices, tell our stories, and show up in the world in a real, authentic way. When I lost sight of that, I stopped getting energy from the podcast, and instead it became an energy drain. I think a lot of you can relate.We so often get the message that we're supposed to sit down, shut up, and be nice. But we're bigger than that boring expectation. We are here to roar! To light up the night! I'm back behind the mic with a different approach. If you don't like it, don't watch/listen. Because, and I say this with love, I don't give a f*ck.Episodes of the podcast will, in the future, come out on Thursdays, with travel videos dropping on Saturdays/Sundays. I hope you'll join me for some real talk about boundaries, authenticity, solo female travel, creativity, magick, and more.Interested in getting a Tarot reading?

Blood Magick: Part One
Gather round the cauldron, lovelies! Today’s episode takes us into the world of blood magic. This particular aspect of the Craft has been around since the very beginning, and it’s been maligned for likely just as long. In Part One I look a bit at the history of blood magic, including some curiously off-putting applications from well-regarded history books. I also look at how the use of blood in magic is portrayed--unsurprisingly inaccurately--in media. Most important, I talk about the use of blood in one’s own work, and how to approach this powerful and sometimes a little scary practice.Part Two will cover more of the practicalities, how to safely and effectively use blood, what workings can really benefit from blood, and the all-important after care of blood (and all other kinds) of magic.I’d love to hear from you about your own experiences working with blood! Any questions you might have, any concerns, any comments, let me know. This is an area that has a lot of stigma of varying kinds. While I firmly believe it should be approached with respect, I also don’t think it’s as frightening as it’s often been portrayed.Signup for my Lunarly Newsletter, where I explore each new and full moon, while offering tips, spells, and ideas for working the moon phases.Online Tarot readings available! 3-12 card readings, bespoke spreads available.

Practical Magic: Setting Boundaries with Family
Gather round the cauldron! Today we’re diving into boundaries. Again! More specifically, taking a break from your family. The holidays are well upon us, and even with The Great Weirdness keeping us socially distanced from one another, that doesn’t mean there’s a break from familial expectations--or toxicity. In this episode I look at the cultural narrative around blood being thicker than water, how to tell when your boundaries have been crossed, ways to approach taking a break from your family of origin, and my own experience leading up taking a break. Plus: A look at the Full moon in Gemini--with a partial eclipse!Wishing all of you happy, healthy, and fulfilling relationships with everyone you choose to have in your lives!Mentioned in this episode:Dr. Nicole LePera on Mark Groves PodcastDr. Alexandra Solomon on Mark Groves PodcastAirial Clark A New Perspective Episode 131 - Couldn't find a link, sorry.Signup for my Lunarly Newsletter, where I explore each new and full moon, while offering tips, spells, and ideas for working the moon phases.Online Tarot readings available! 3-12 card readings, bespoke spreads available.

How to Receive and Interpret Messages from Source
 Gather round the cauldron, lovelies! On this beautiful new moon in Libra, I look at Divine messages: how do we get them, how can we interpret them, and what do we do with them at the end of the day. We’re receiving messages all the time, but our brains tend to be so noisy and active that we don’t even notice. How do we quiet down, get still, and open our eyes to the story behind the story? |Referenced in this episode: I Prayed Every Day and This is What Happened by Russell Brand https://youtu.be/zZ7i2Y__O8Q |You can find me on IG @squeakys_cauldron, at SqueakysCauldron.com, or email me [email protected]. |Music: Ayla Nereo “Wheel of Time” |Licensed under CC-BY-NC-SA 3.0 US
