Imbolc marks the halfway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. The sun is returning and we are welcoming her with open arms, even as it dumps snow on our little New England town. In this episode we chat about lucky Basil and it’s ability to create peace in your home. Then we travel to Australian to meet the Mookaite Jasper and discuss it’s ability to help heal generational trauma. Learn all about the origins of Imbolc and how to celebrate for yourself as well as some other holidays that were celebrated around this time of the Earth’s awakening…and unsurprisingly the Roman’s were up to their crazy antics.

Happy New Year! This can be a strange time for a lot of people. A new chapter has started, but it may not feel like it's really gotten going yet. Or maybe you're feeling stuck, or you don't know what to expect. Explore the concept of liminal space. Embrace the obsidian, a perfect stone for grounding, divination and slicing through the darkness. And if you need to bring the spice, grab some cayenne. This pepper is great for banishing negativity and connecting with your Root Chakra which is our big topic for today. Figure out if yours is out of whack and how to help heal it.

The nights keep getting longer, but this agate is here to bring you some sunshine, laughter, and maybe some much needed stability. This time of year can be extremely chaotic so we could all use a bit more grounding. With that comes, Cilantro, and it’s many confusing names. Give yourself a boost of vitamins and heal from emotional wounds all while enjoying this tasty herb. (Unless it tastes like soap to you, in which case I’m sorry.) On this episode we dive into the elements and their correspondences. This is something I use in my every day practice and I hope you enjoy!

As someone with ADD it can be a real struggle to stay grounded. It’s something I’ve had to work on my entire life. Often I feel like I’m floating away or my brain feels like the inside of a freshly-shaken snow globe. My favorite grounding stone is also my birthstone; the garnet. A lovely little pomegranate that we’ll be chatting about this week. We also discuss Nettle which has a surprising number of health benefits and you should consider using it in maybe your broth or tea! I’ll be sharing the way that I ground before spellwork and some tips for protecting yourself and your space while you’re busy at your altar. Protection and grounding are really important skills to develop and it’s imperative you learn how to do both.

We’re talking selfishness this week. I hate that word. People throw it around too frequently. Take a day for yourself to just be alone and you’re “selfish”. Buy something nice with the money you work hard for and you’re “selfish”. Cut off people who leech off you and you’re “selfish”. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of selfish people in the world, but we kick that word around so much that now people feel guilty about self-care and personal boundaries, worrying that maybe they’ll be the next to be labeled as such. Well this week we’ve got rose quartz, full to bursting with love of all kinds, romantic, familial, and of course self; and hibiscus used in spells of passion but also self-confidence. I stumbled upon Glamours when I first started on this path, but left them on the back-burner, but this week I turned my focus on them. “My journey took me somewhat further down the rabbit-hole than I intended and though I dirtied my fluffy white tail, I have emerged, enlightened.” Check out this week’s episode to learn all about Glamours; charismatic, cryptic, creepy.

Calm seas never made for skilled sailors...but after a year of storms it’s nice to feel a little, dare I say it? Stability. This week Ted talks about his experience with Tiger’s Eye and its ability to steady the ship. We also discuss the effects of happy, healing Chamomile.
Trigger Warning Emotional Abuse
We joke around a lot on this podcast, but the second part of this episode is serious. I see a lot of posts from experienced Witches warning new Witches about things to look out for and be wary of. I’ve compiled some things you should practice/work on before you cast your first spell as well as some warnings and maybe a few hard truths. Magic is beautiful and your spiritual journey will be filled with so much beauty, but there is darkness in the world and we have to look out for one another. Be safe out there. I love you <3
